He received an average rating of 6.13 following the 3-2 win at home against Newport County during the 2018/19 season. Some of the comments can be found below:
hulloutpost: “Was on the good side of lenient which was a positive during the 90 mins. Last 6 mins though he suddenly seemed to want to be the centre of attention. Having not given a foul for pushing all game he suddenly gave Newport a free kick for a complete non-event and ignored a couple of clear fouls on Imps players keeping Newport in the game plus the DC sending off. Based on his first 90 mins he can have a 6.”
plumbob: “5 from me. As some have said, we’ve had worse. DC has to take it on the chin, but I thought we were on the wrong end of most marginal calls and quite a few clear cut ones.”
sedgleyimp: “Thought he was largely anonymous which is often a good thing with a referee up until the injury time debacle with Danny which seemed to be a mountain out of the molehill.
Would have been a 7 up to the 94th minute but down to a 5 for missing a foul on Wharton then sending Danny off for being unhappy with that.”
