There were a fair few out yesterday.
Messrs Robinson, Stroud and Busby of SG2 all did games.
A fair few assistants out as well.
One game in Devon had two FL assistants on it, one of them SG2 - in front of around 100 people.
And yes, it was due to a chronic shortage of officials at that level.
Do you have the appointment list for those if possible?
