Was that the, shouldn’t really mention his name, Darren Deadman game?
It was. Must admit, every time he came back he was fine, and indeed I have a lot more time for him after I saw him referee a Donny game the day after Billy Sharp had lost his young baby. When Sharp scored, he took off his shirt to show a T-shirt with a message to his son, and Deadman made sure he was looking the other way. I know people will say that there’d have been a riot if he’d booked Sharp for it but something not dissimilar happened just this weekend and the ref showed the player a yellow card.
