beat me to it, i was copying and pasting it lol

Hmmm. Attwell, Taylor and Marriner with the key games in the battle for Top 4. Attwell and Marriner have had decent seasons, Taylor somewhat mixed. I expected Oliver at Liverpool bearing in mind he never got to referee their game at OT.
Interest in the VAR selections also. Gillett seems to have been generally reliable and Tierney for the Liverpool game has plenty of experience. Bankes as VAR has had controversies I believe so his appointment for Leicester vs Spurs is perhaps more of a surprise.
-
A premier league debut for Shaun Hudson who is the assistant for Leeds v West Brom.
-
Just noticed all the 4O appointments are SG2 so one of them could get a short trial if the referee is injured. Not too surprising given that SG1's are refereeing or on VAR duties.
And Lee Mason's final final goodbye as an SG1 is on VAR, ready for his next career role. I do hope Sheffield United vs Burnley is uncontroversial for him.
-
4 key games - 6 unimportant games - could have been used to use some of the less used refs :(
-
Taylor somewhat mixed.
Taylor had an excellent game at Selhurst Park last night. A few debatable VAR red card checks, but IMO the on field decisions were fair.
(I agree that his season has been somewhat mixed though.)

Was expecting Graham Scott and Darren England to get a game or Simon Hooper or at least Andy Madley

It's the Schlupp challenge after 5 minutes that has angered Arsenal fans in particular. Just seen it and in my opinion it's one that VAR Attwell could have advised Taylor to check the monitor.
-
Pleasantly surprised by Attwell and Marriner
Same old same old for the rest
Lee Mason for Head of PGMOL!!!!!!
-
Let's just hope Simon Hooper looks at the correct frames on VAR - unlike the ones shown on Wednesday evening at Palace!
-
I'm late to this thread, but in what way are there only 4 "key" games this weekend? Assuming that place money in itself is not a criterion, there are surely 6 games on which European qualification in one form or another hinges - and that is disregarding the highly unlikely prospect of Leeds so qualifying. Surely all 6 are "key" from that point of view? Am I missing something?

Added to that every position in the PL is worth Ł1 million in prize money, so it is difficult to say that any game is "unimportant"
-
I hope the appropriate social distancing is in place at “Shockley” Park.
Will be a squeeze getting 20 officials in the VAR hub come 4pm!
-
Craig Pawson and Andre Marriner (injured) have swapped roles - Pawson refereeing at Anfield, Marriner VAR for West Ham - Southampton.
-
Good job his injury happened in enough time to swap him - imagine if it’d been the warm up! That would’ve been a hell of a game for Tony Harrington!
-
Mark Scholes replaces Gary Beswick on Leicester V Tottenham and Andrew Fox (SG2) replaces Scholes on Sheffield United v Burnley.
-
Anthony Taylor didn’t quite catch michael Oliver in the penalty count..🤷♂️

Actually, Mr Oliver could have increased his lead by awarding a double penalty to Everton as both Dias and Ederson fouled Richarlison!?
-
Ha, ha. Just realised Taylor gave 2 penalties in the Leicester- Spurs game, one of them after an OFR. Memo to self: watch carefully and concentrate!
Do we actually have the penalty count for referees among the stats for 2020/21?

Many thanks for that. Even allowing for some referees having less games, that quite a variation.
Are penalties awarded after an OFR included but those retracted after a review excluded?
Although Oliver has clocked up so many, I don't recall offhand any being overturned on review, or for that matter only being given after a visit to the monitor, but could well be wrong on that. Some were certainly of the 'soft' variety but not regarded as a 'clear and obvious' error.
I know Atkinson missed some games towards the end of the season due covid I think, but 2 penalties is remarkably few. Wasn't it in the Neville / Carragher documentary on refereeing that Atkinson said you should be 110% sure for a penalty - or words to that effect?

Not quite correct. I'll publish a comp set of stats

With the season now over we know mason is going to be a full time var official after his last game so are we expecting some promotions from sg2 in time for the 2021/22 season?

How many promotions are required to replace one referee, bearing in mind that Lee Mason will (presumably) be covering twice as many games as VAR as he did this season? Half a referee? Given the number of games some of the newer SG1 members did this season there is an argument, on numbers alone I stress, not to promote any.
-
I would argue that some of our top referees are getting too many - top referees in Germany, France, Spain and Italy are getting no more than 20 games in a season (fewer in most countries) - Oliver and Taylor got 28 matches each this season. They could easily spread the appointments out better so the less experienced referees get a few more games.
France (38 rounds):
The most matches anyone got was 20 (Brisard, Lesage and Buquet) - Turpin got 19
Spain (38 rounds):
The most matches anyone got was 21 (Gonzalez Fuertes and del Cerro Grande) - Lahoz got 18
Germany (34 rounds):
The most matches anyone got was 17 (Grafe and Brych).
Italy (38 rounds):
The most matches anyone got was 18 (Mariani) - Orsato got 15
-
Seems most other countries work on 1 in every 2, as opposed to almost 3 in every 4.
The lack of experience will show up sooner or later as age/injury/other appointments hit the numbers.
Surely we have enough games to be giving Jones, England et al 1 in every 2 matchweeks?

Oliver over turned his penalty decision in the villa v brighton game after Kavanagh asked him to view the screen.

Hungary 33 Rounds
Solymosi Péter - 22 - referee; 18 - AAR. * Has done more than 1 AAR duty in the same round on occasion hence why more than 33 in total.
Bogár Gergő - 22 - referee ; 11 - AAR
Berke Balázs - 17 - referee; 6 - AAR
Andó-Szabó Sándor - 16 - referee; 13 - AAR
Pintér Csaba - 15 - referee; 5 - AAR
Káprály Mihály - 15 - referee; 18 - AAR *NBII
Erdős József - 13 - referee; 22 - AAR * Has done more than 1 AAR duty in the same round on occasion hence why more than 33 in total.
Karakó Ferenc - 12 - referee; 9 - AAR
Farkas Ádám - 12 - referee; 15 - AAR * was injured/out for a few weeks
Bognár Tamás - 11 - referee; 2 - AAR *out for more than 1 month after getting covid
Iványi Zoltán - 11 - referee; 13 - AAR * was injured/out for a few weeks
Antal Péter - 11 - referee; 14 - AAR *NBII
Zierkelbach Péter - 8 - referee; 16 - AAR *NBII
Vad II István - 6 - referee; 9 - AAR * was injured for most of the season as per usual!! That's 3/4 seasons now where he has missed most of it...
Pillók Ádám - 5 - referee; 17 - AAR *NBII
Csonka Bence - 1 - referee 24 as AAR *NBII
We've had really bad problems with covid within the league & a lot of our referees have either been out having tested positive themselves or in quarantine after players from the game they were in tested positive so we have used NBII referees more than normal. They'd normally do 3/4 games max per season. We've also had VAR training going on during the spring season so a lot of the refs have missed games because they were sat in the VAR van practicing although there were no comms linked with the on field referee team.

So no promotions for any sg1s for the 2021/22 season then?
-

I sincerely hope that's not the case. No promotions is a recipe for disgruntled employees. Harrington & Gillett have done enough to justify promotion to SG1, and even if they are used sparingly on the PL to start with (as per Jones), SG1 is where they deserve to be, with 2-3 others, such as Breakspear, promoted to SG2 to take their place. Promotion is always something to aim for at all levels is it not?
-
Given NL has not yet finished and play offs have not taken place I would not expect any promotion news just yet.
-
any referee promotions?
-
Now, we know all four are promoted. Harrington, Salisbury, Gillett and Brookes
-
any referee promotions?
Promotions all here: https://ratetheref.createaforum.com/general-discussion-5/promotions-2596/

well done to the new refs on getting promoted
lets hope they get some good appointments when the new season starts
