Bit surprised to see gillett out again.
Was it his form that got him taken off cup final?

Was he ever on it ?

Quote from: Whistleblower on Today at 11:57 am

As to shorty shorts, Clive Thomas's looked quite long compared to his fellow Welshman Tom Reynolds.

Perhaps it's a Welsh thing. My memory of the referee with the shortest of shorts is of H D Davies of Wenvoe, (a place only known from old TV signals.
.

Is there a photgraph of Mr Davies in officiating action so we can measure ?
