Any word on promotions from the National League (2A) to the National Group (1)? I dare say the referees and assistants chosen for the NL play-offs are among the front runners. Simon Mather and Rebecca Welch will also be under consideration having had trial matches and I would think it likely that one of those two will do the NL Promotion Final.
PS. Is the David Richardson who will referee the Stockport vs Hartlepool PO semi the same one that was a FIFA Assistant some time ago?
I believe Simon finished top of the merit list, so will highly likely referee the final at Ashton Gate👍🏼
