In one of Reg Robinson's final games as a FL ref, I think it must have been Arsenal v Nottingham Forest on 5th May 1980, there was an almighty punch-up towards the end of the game in which 21 players were involved (one of the goalies couldn't get upfield quickly enough to take part). When it subsided, the players awaited their fate and then Reg did.... exactly nothing, other than shrugging his shoulders and restarting the game. He must have realised that he wasn't going to be around to see the ramifications, and I don't think the authorities did much about it either. Viewed on BBC MOTD at the time but unfortunately not available for viewing now. A thin fair-haired man if my recollections of Reg are correct, a bit like his Norwich predecessor Tommy Dawes but not as tall.

Thank you JT. So it was Norman Burtenshaw at Selhurst Park on Boxing Day 1972. He was a regular at SP which is probably why I didn't remember this particular game.

many thanks again JT, if you dont mind me asking where do you get the info for the gaps from? I painstakingly go through various newspapers and programmes to find the original information, just curious how you and LF manage to fill in the gaps.

Gordon Maurice Trevett

born Q1 1929 Woolwich, S.E. London
son of Albert J Trevett and Mary K Doyle married Q2 1926 Chelsea
married Joan Eileen Weedon Q1 1952 Barton on Irwell, Lancs
died Manchester

Matches found on line

First match pre-dates him becoming a supplementary for 69-70
He disappears off the F.L. list for 70-71
Re-appears as a supplementary for 71-72 & 72-73
Becomes a full referee for 73-74, 74-75 & 75-76
But removed before his potential final season of 76-77

The retirement age back then was 47 so he did actually complete a full term, albeit a short one having made the List at a late age.

Just curious how you and LF manage to fill in the gaps.

I have some FL appointments for 1975-1976. Some of my details come from newspapers but a large number are from match programmes. While the latter will obviously not pick up on the very small number of changes to referee (I'd estimate about five percent) match programmes are generally much more accurate than newspapers in giving the correct name of the scheduled referee. This means they avoid some of the issues you've mentioned where referees with the same surname / initial have been transposed as well as the problems of typos. Where a referee isn't known by the first of his names (e.g. Reg Robinson) the programme is more likely to call him by his preferred name so we avoid the same referee being billed as H. Robinson, H.R. Robinson or R. Robinson.

ok officially getting excited now, when i started this i never for one minute imagined i would be close to filling in the gaps. got a few for 76-77 but not a lot, Bristol City have become the Sheffield Utd of the 76-77 season as the coverage of their matches is not the best

ive now got a fairly comprehensive ref database 1970-1980 for england, scotland, france, west germany, east germany, italy, switerland, spain, portugal, holland, belgium, romania, cechoslovakia, yugoslavia ,russia, hungary , league matches, euro matches and internationals, more countries in future plans
