Yes you’re correct, sorry, I should have checked. The name seems familiar though - has he reffed a big game for us in last couple of seasons?Cajetan said:

Play Off final is an aberration where Kitchen is concerned
My heart sinks whenever I see his name alongside our fixtures
He's one of the egomaniac tossers who think his visibility is key to the game when the opposite is always true.
With 55000 hammers baying at him there's no telling what muddled, cock-eyed, hapless mixture of rules, guesswork and idiocy he will deliver.
Sadly the outcome of the match will owe far more to Kitchen's vanity than to anything we recognise as football.1 -
There are no rules governing aspects on the field of play. Referees apply the Laws of the Game (all 17 of them). No wonder there is a massive disconnect between reality and your disrespective remarks.Billy_Mix said:Play Off final is an aberration where Kitchen is concerned

Home v Chef Wendy last season (won 2-1)
Away v Orient previous season (won 2-1 ... the two identical stoppage time goals from Macca and Rambo)
Apparently taken charge of six Charlton matches in his career, we've got three wins and two draws and he's issued three red cards in those six matches ... all to the oppo
