Last Sunday we did something that we have never, ever, done before at a Fev Match and our first ever match was back in October 1970. We left at half-time and let’s make it clear our decision to leave was nothing to do with what had been happening on the pitch. Nowadays we have to walk with a stick and stairs are quite a problem. We arrived in plenty of time and, thanks to a very helpful, kind lady  in the Bradford Office  we had spoken to on the phone a few days earlier, we were able to park reasonably close to the main stand.

He is one of the lowest current referees for average penalties per match, but this year he has been high on the use of yellow and red cards.
