A word of praise for what must have been a bit of a nerve jangler for Ms Welch.
No fuss, took no nonsense, well done Rebecca - Top Job!

Yeah I have no complaints either. Well done!
Never had any worries about her, I'll bet Forest fans wish she'd have been reffing their game.
Can we have her again next week ? She could give me a yellow card !
Rebecca has earned her chance. I saw her reffing in the Northern League in years gone by and that is no easy task, I can assure you.
She did well yesterday and it was no surprise to me because she ahs a lot of experience.
Strange though that it was 21 minutes before she awarded the first free kick in the game.
Could it be that a female referee gets a bit more respect mein freund?Quote:

They will continue to roll around on the pitch after very minimal contact in order to try to get their opponent cautioned etc., etc.
The game is becoming more corrupt every day, aided and abetted by the PL's hold over the PGMOL with its directives about player safety, use of excessive force, being out of control (a la Willy Boly joke decision) etc., etc.
You would hope the ladies would get more respect wouldn't you.
