Posted: Sun Mar 01, 2009 8:59 pmHya Guys Rotherham fan here, i cant believe we have got this idiot on tuesday night, after what happened at Barnsley 4 years ago. I will explain. He sent of 3 of our players and Mick Harford. We were winning 1-0 at the time he added 6 minutes of injutr time, and they were pushing for an equaliser, and what happened they got it when it didnt even cross the line. So be warned he has also upset managers this season and sent them to the stands.

Re: Trevor Kettle
Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 2:09 pmKettle was the worst referee I'd ever seen in the Conference (a thought universally shared on Confguide by fans of all clubs). I couldn't believe he ever got promoted to League refereeing when there were so many better ones like Matadar and Singh.
Better he wasn't there tonight now that Hackett has made those comments as it could work against us.
