Can't help but feel Scott got a bit suckered in by Young and McGinn's reaction to the second foul by Dewsbury-Hall, making it look a lot worse than it actually was. Not sure if he McGinn might've blocked his view right at the last second too but of course it's up to him to position himself appropriately.

On the penalty incident, far too passive with his positioning for me. As soon as that ball was chipped into the box I'd be expecting him to follow it in and get wider, but he's awfully static and barely in the camera shot when the incident happens. God knows what he thought he saw.


On a personal note, I've had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of times in the last few years at various BBFA/RA events and found him to be very engaging, personable and always good to listen to, so if this is to be his last season on the list I wish him well for whatever he does next.
