    Thought in the first 10 minutes she might have struggled, players from both sides very quick to surround her on a couple of moments, but she stood her ground and from then on there wasn't much dissent from the players

    Better than Trevor Kettle, that’s for sure. One of the better refs this season, IMO

    Very impressive performance but she should have issued a red on 10 minutes for the two footed tackle. 
    That was her only mistake today. Very good ref, didnt notice her which is how it should be.

    One of the better refs but it was a definite red as has been said.

    While there have been a few bad ones, I don't think the standard of officiating this season has been that bad overall. Indeed it's regularly been a lot better than the standard of our football
  • Thought Rebecca was very good. Yes I agree with others that it should jave been a red card. But overall very good and took no shit from anyone. I saw Hasselbank going crazy in the tunnel at her after the game but not sure she missed any key moments for them.

    Have heard Rebecca is doing very well in her 1st season as an EFL Referee after making history last season. Rumoured to be on course for a promotion to the Championship already!

    Can't be worse than some we have had this season.

    I remember a lady linesperson signalled  a penalty offence to us  against Port Vale around 1996 or so. Vale players gave her abuse but she just stood there ,flag out and told the referee what she saw. Unlike the assistant referees of today who see sod all.
    Handball and live on the box.

    Hopefully she can keep up with play - not a few this season have had problems doing so due to their beer bellies.
    Im 60 with a dodgy knee and I could easily keep up with our attacking play, no probs!
    Can you walk backwards & side to side ?
    I can waltz, tango, cha-cha and more besides so no problem.

    The tackle could've been a red in real time but a very impressive performance and much better than most of the female refs I have seen watching the WSL.

    Can see why she’s already on the Championship list for next season. 
    Makes a nice change to have a decent ref in this league.

    Grow up.
    It.was.a.joke.

    Jesus.....I cant win on here can I. Make a joke and people moan, be myself & I'm labelled a meaner.

    And btw. I'm one of the least male chauvinist blokes you'll find. I'm currently bringing up 3 teenagers on my own. I cook, clean, do the washing & ironing, the food shopping & work 5 days a f**king week. I get nothing from either the Government in the way of child benefit or maintenance from the ex wife. 

    Now put that in your pipe & smoke it  !!!!


    I sympathise with your domestic situation but that’s no excuse for unfunny “jokes”.

    Don’t think he was looking for your sympathy and if you didn’t find his original ‘joke’ funny then fine but jeez some people need to get a life.

    You are not the sole judge on whether something is funny or not, or do you consider yourself a 'comedy policeman', sorry, 'comedy policeperson.'

    Got the biggest decision of the game wrong.  We end up losing that game there would be none of the positive comments on here about the refs performance no matter how well she did for the rest of the game

    Good. I hope he has a thoroughly miserable evening, the lazy b*****d.
  • Best ref we have had so far this season

    Teaches him for throwing the last game of the season against Oxford.

    From where I sat, upper covered end towards the AC stand, I didn’t think it was a red, probably yellow and said the game had gone soft.

    Excellent display in a low tempo, albeit not an entirely clean game .  Calm authority , seemed to want to referee a game of football, not to draw attention to herself as most refs in this league like to do .  She will be a good ref in higher divisions if today is anything to go by

    Bar the Blatant 2 footed studs up challenge on Dobson after 10 minutes that she bottled up giving just a yellow she was fine. Good job we won! 

    Mr Finnie on Tuesday night v Gillingham was very good

    Agreed, but can see why a red wasn’t issued that early to be fair - might not be right and we all thought it was a red, but a tough (early) call to make. Other than that she was very good

    Have heard Rebecca is doing very well in her 1st season as an EFL Referee after making history last season. Rumoured to be on course for a promotion to the Championship already!

    Can't be worse than some we have had this season.


    I hope she will be successful and successfully utilised refereeing women's football instead of mens. This relentless push for replacing men with women in every sphere of life may look like some "great leap forward" [to the woke among us]  I think it will do in refereeing what it does elsewhere ~ it will turn many very able men away from ever wishing to now pursue that particular profession. It is not the sex of the referee that needs changing, it's the standard of refereeing that needs improving. 

    As The West slowly sinks further and further into the abyss, we can be thankful that all this woke nonsense will go down with it. And hope for a return to common sense, tradition and family values and clear roles for men and women to live by and follow and a welcome return to calling a spade a spade. 

    Wishing Rebecca all the very best refereeing the ladies. 

     
    Yeah what next we let em wear trousers?! Then all the men won’t want to wear em cos all the wimmin are in em and then all the men will all start wearing dressis. It’s an ABOMINATION.

    Where did I claim to be the sole arbiter of humour?

    Also, I’d hate any police person to be a judge. They’re two totally different professions requiring different skill sets.
