A nice Xmas present for Northampton... a visit from Kettle.

One for the New Years Day hangover... ;D

8 yellows from Kettle at Northampton... that's 19 yellows and two reds in two games from him...



What’s your point 🤷‍♀️

The point is that over the years empirical and statistical evidence suggests Mr Kettle cautions more players than other referees. With the average per game usually around 3 to have issued so many in 2 games is worthy of comment. Likely they were all correct and highlight more that players can be idiotic at times, as they know how he is and could/should adapt their behaviour

I don't think Anthony Backhouse would have done his chances of moving onwards and upwards much good with his ridiculous decision to award Fleetwood a penalty v Sunderland. If that was a foul, we might as well all pack up and go home. The second time this season that Anthony has done this (can't remember the details of the previous award but Lincoln comes to mind), and I hope that someone will have a word in his ear before long as he is a promising ref.

Hold on, Joey Barton said it was definitely a penalty...

For the disliker ..... not quite sure what you are disliking, Kettle, his performance or that someone felt it was worthy of comment  ??? If the final thing I think that 21 (possibly 22 or 23) festive cards in two matches is, whilst not totally surprising, worthy of note. Well done Trevor, you can catch that upstart Alan Young yet !

As we had Alan Young instead of Chris Pollard at Salford, since he has come on to the list we have had him officiate us in 6 away games but he has never been to the Banks's Stadium.

Whenever Kettle is put down to officiate, the players must know given his card shark reputation that they have a better chance of getting opposing players binned for idiotic behaviour as a reaction to niggly challenges and pushes, as RCG quite rightly illustrates.
