No not Ashley Clown he's in Oz as we all know but the one and only Hi Ho Silverwood. Just checked referee appointments and he's not listed, not even as a video referee anywhere. Has Ashley Clown hid him in his suitcase and took him to Oz ???

Injured knee i think.

If only!

Correct. He hopes to be back by round 4.

so we've got three weeks to do his other knee

No Ganson too.

Doesn't that completely screw up the "every team to get every referee 3 times in the first 21 rounds" idea?

I suppose it'll turn into "no team will get any one referee more than 3 times in the first 21 rounds"

At this rate, we will have only played three games by round 21

Tell you what there must be more to this video reffing lark than first meets the eye!!! A dodgy knee means you cant push a button?? I'm no stranger to injuries but if he's on full pay while he's not out there on the field he should at least be doing the video reffing IMO.

Ganson didnt have a great game with Rovers and Salford in my opinion, missed many simple things and the game wasn't even at SL speeds, I hope he improves because no doubt he'll be the one to take on the GF and CCF now the clown has departed our shores!
