Kettle to oversee Rochdale's progress to the second round....

As I always say at times like this, apart from a crazy game at Scunthorpe in 2004, we’ve never had any real problems with him.

We have lost six times out of six versus Wrexham in the FA Cup, however...

It's always interesting to see which non-National List referees get ties in this round. By my reckoning we have Messrs. Reeves, Brook, Hull, Speedie, Parsons, Barrott, Gibbons, Bell, Yianni, Purkiss, Quelch and Middleton. The last four have ties involving EFL teams.

Sam Purkiss is on the Football League list.  I saw him referee a League One match a couple of weeks ago.

My apologies. He's one of those I haven't seen yet. So it's just Yianni, Middleton and Quelch who have EFL teams.

2nd appointment of Rob Lewis to an Argyle game in 3 weeks. Officials need to be spread around a little more I think.

The way we are playing TVOS I reckon you might be 1 out of 7!

Unfortunately I'm in the middle of moving house so I won't get the chance of my first viewing of Mr Kettle in many a year - although I seem to remember he was fine.

Neil Hair has just went off injured at Accrington, Replaced by Alan Clayton according to Twitter

Further delay at Accrington as another official is receiving treatment for an injury - second half yet to restart!

They've restarted with only one linesman/assistant...
