Some very good appointments, some predictable, others slightly baffling
Great appointments for Rebecca Welch and Natalie Aspinall. Good to see other SG2 ARs in SG1 teams.
Not quite sure how in a round where all Prem sides come in that they couldnt find room for Michael Salusbury to ref at least one of them.
New white badge on show on Friday night. David Coote with a busy few days.

Nice opportunity to show off his new fifa badge on itv for Darren England. Also good to see Harrington and Salisbury given a go at being VAR in this round - also Natalie Aspinall as AVAR and then as assistant the following day at a PL stadium - promotion on the cards??

Thomas Bramall and Josh Smith with Prem teams - Charlton v Norwich could easily be a shock depending on who they put out

Good appointments for welch and aspinall, nice to them progress.
Not in favour in var at this stage, we should wait til qf or sf stage where all teams can then have equal opportunity.

Some good opportunities there at higher levels than the ones they usually work at. Bell and Barrott clearly fancied by the FA/PGMO and from what I’ve seen I can see why that would be. I haven’t seen Josh Smith yet but have heard positive notes. One for the future at the top or too soon to say?
I too agree that the Salisbury appointment is crazy. What a great chance to see more PL teams and one missed IMO.

Now, I am all for equality and seeing more female officials in the game has been a huge step forward in recent years. However. I have just looked and please correct me if I am wrong here, but Rebecca Welch has refereed 5 EFL league games to date and a small number of Pizza Trophy games. Only one of those games was in League One.

Would a male first year referee be entrusted with a Third Round game in the FA Cup involving a Championship team and a high flying League One team? I just simply cannot see the justification for this appointment at all. Feel free to shoot me down but it’s not only bizarre, but in my opinion it’s appears to be purely done for one reason which is totally wrong for all the other officials on the list. I feel an FA Cup game in this round is one that should be earned on merit and I simply don’t feel that five league games can possibly justify that appointment.
This is no fault of Rebecca’s of course and I do wish her well. However I am sure this left a salty taste for other referees on EFL when this came out today

It seems a bit surprising someone like Salsbury wasn't given one of those games.

I'm sure Coote will get a warm reception at Anfield..

Sometimes a referee in line for PL promotion, like Andy Madley a few years ago, gets a PL team in FA Cup but doesn't seem to have happened this year, not that I especially know who would be next in line? Don't seem to be any indications of a PL trial game coming up, which normally happens around Christmas.

Good that Harrington and Salsbury are getting VAR experience, and following on from other thread I believe Rob Jones' first VAR match of season too. One good thing about using VAR in FA Cup is it can give more experience to more officials. Personally I think it's right to use VAR in as many games as possible.

Pleased to see one of the 'big guns' (Anthony Taylor) in charge of Millwall v Palace. Despite neither side being particularly high profile in their divisions, this derby match needs a high profile ref in my view.

...particularly as there are no replays to fall back on

You made a great point and well constructed.

I view this subject from two opposing points so let me give you the other side.  Equality and Equity are NOT equal.  Yes, the two words are similar, but the difference between them is decisive.

While I understand your point that it will leave salty taste for other Male EFL Referees but let us think about it the other way.  Should all EFL Referees be on equal playing field when it comes to being appointed on a prestigious match?  That is a question of Equality.  But should all EFL Referees (Female - Sole One on the EFL) get more exposure  to ensure that "Female" Referees across the country view them as Role Model so they could take up whistle as well?  That is a question of Equity.

One could argue that the playing field was sweep under Female's Referees decades/centuries ago hence only few months ago that it produced first FL Female Referee.

As I said, you made a very valid point but we all know that moving up the ladder does not automatically means you were better than ones that never get a looking.

I see nothing wrong with using profile as a guide to appointing providing, and it's a massive providing, the performances merit the appointment. Whether Ms Welch's performances do so, I and most of us on RTR are unqualified to comment accurately.

Not sure why we need Moss on our game at Bristol City…

That would have been a perfect game for an up and coming NL official to handle… even Bobby Madley would have been a perfectly good fit.

No surprise Oliver has the prime time Monday evening offerings…

I understand the point made on equality and equity and again it was a very well made one. However, Miss Welch has had a high profile since doing the trial match last season so is very much in the public recognition. The 3rd Round of the cup is too far in my opinion though given that she has only been entrusted with 5 league games since August, only one of which was in League One. I sincerely hope not but this kind of appointment could well set a referee of little experience at this level up for a huge fall.

Barrott’s appointment to referee at Stoke for example seems to me a much more sensible one. Having watched him on the Stockport game in the last round I think this appointment is earned and fully justified. This is now I think his second season as an EFL referee so this feels about right.

I think the fact she’s only refereed 5 league games is a bit of an unfair point - she has been involved in WSL matches at weekends, but also Women’s Champions League and International qualifiers have fallen at times which would effectively rule her out of some EFL match weeks.
