A mysterious location in Yorkshire!
Signature
Sing a song of Yorkshire, from the Humber to the Tees
Of cricket, rugby, beer, of pudding and of cheese
I know no other county where the land is quite so fine
England's lovely county. And I'm proud to call it mine

Where shining purple heather stretches far across the moor
And the lapwing's cry above me takes the place of traffic roar
And peace comes drifting gently, there's no place I'd rather be
Than this land of hills and valleys, from the Pennines to the sea

So when I've done my roaming, and when my step grows slow
When heart and mind assure me that the time has come to go
Then let me rest in Yorkshire, for its there I want to lie
'Neath sun and wind and heather... and a gleaming Yorkshire sky

There are no referee shortages so I can't see it.

There's still an unfilled vacancy. Six FT refs last year + 1 Thierry Alibert being appointed this year gave us the 7 needed: then 'Ash' upping sticks for Ockerland = 1 vacancy.

Wonder what changed?


He was associate director at The Halifax.

Oh dear. Refereeing looks like the more attractive option now, I reckon.

I thought Karl wouldn't come back because he had a few choice words to say about Cummings.

Probably so but only because of the dressing down he received as a result of the absolute b***s up he made during the Rochdale v Oldham game when he allowed a 2 on 1 strip not only to go unpunished but a try was scored as a result. He can't take the criticism. The game is far better without him and we are retaining more young refs without him.

Not heard too much about the Shayne Hayne story but I am lead to believe that Jamie Leahy is favourite to get the final FT position.

He's officiated a fair few SL games this year.
