From bad to worse

[Great grandad Harry ball]

Could be worse.
Kendall, Grant, Child..............I wonder how refs like Billy Thompson, Fred Lindop, Eric Clay, Robin Whitfield, John Houldsworth............even the appalling Vince Moss or Jim Smith would have fared under this regime!
It really depends these days on who the video ref is............oh, hang on - it's not on the telly so he'll have to make decisions!

[Suzieb]

The problem is the bloke controlling them Ganson

[Suzieb]

I thought Hicks had gone part time hes not as good as Thaler give him some matches lost count of how many times hicks has refereed us this season let’s c how many sun bins and suspensions after this one

[Suzieb]

Yellow cards and suspensions

[Southern Softy]

I wasn't aware it's on Sky. He only does TV matches surely.

[Suzieb]

These referees are very poor,when Bateman offloaded a saints player knocked on but he did not check it,and at least on 3 occasions he gave a knock on against wigan when in fact the ball was stripped,very poor performance

[Mickw]

The first time in 300 games he keeps his whistle in his pocket and the games far better for it ,to little and far far to late.

[moto748]

My take is that Hicks has gone from, 'isn't he awful?', to 'he's actually one of the better ones'.

What that says about the rest, well...
