Surely this has to be a joke I get teams will get some refs two or three times a season but this is Josh smiths 7th Ipswich game this season. How come we have not had Langford Davies or even Simpson this season.

A plea for Simpson… things must be bad! 😛😛😛

Another excellent appointment for Tom Kirk. If I'm correct then that's three on the trot

Hope it goes well for him and he can cement an SG2 spot next season

Attwell now listed on Bristol City v Cardiff on the EFL site. Is that a replacement?

It does makes sense for why the appointment was delayed and the Assistants listed but definitely not him doing the game.

A plea bargain perhaps.....we'll behave ourselves and respect the match officials if you don't send him.

Not the only Simpson to have escaped the consequences of his alleged misdemeanours !

MIDDLESBROUGH (First Team) v Norwich City FC (First Team)       Live on Sky Sports Red Button
Football League Championship   
Referee: Madley, Robert
Assistant Referee: Antrobus, Blake
Assistant Referee: Hunt, Jonathan
Fourth Official: Kitchen, Andrew

Only just caught up with the TV highlights. If Robert was thinking in terms of moving onwards and upwards, he would have done himself no favours with a straight red for a Norwich player for allegedly kicking an opponent following a tangle in midfield. I don't often agree with commentators when they comment adversely on refereeing decisions, but this was one where I was in full agreement. The only contact seemed to come as the players untangled themselves and, if that was kicking out at an opponent, then we may as well all pack up and go home. A very poor decision in my view and one which changed the whole nature of the game.

Thought it best for me not to comment. But totally agree, thankfully the player doesn't get a 4 game ban, perhaps Mr Madley should instead. He failed to book Ayling in the first minute for a bad tackle and went downhill from then on. It doesn't get the 3 points which after 30 minutes looked extremely likely. Perhaps Howson should get a ban for deceiving officials?

Red card apparently overturned and the Norwich player took his place in the team yesterday. The only correct decision in my view and I would hope that Robert would have played a part in getting the card overturned.
