What was apparently his first venture into the Championship I thought the referee had a great game. Didn’t seem to get much of the decisions wrong.

Did you watch the same game as me? He seemed to have a personal vendetta against Grant in the second half

He was good in the first half but then I don't know if Coventry paid him at half time but 2nd half he was absolutely shocking

He was shocking especially in the second half. It was almost as if he had a bet on us losing lol. The ex jack was very lucky to escape with just a yellow, he completely bottled it

All about opinions but second half he was awful. Cov should have seen two red, one for an x rated tackle on NG, and another when Etete was pulled back when through on goal.

Cov lost their heads a little bit at 3-1 down, but I really think its because they were being allowed to do it by the ref.

He gave Etete absolutely nothing and, as another poster said, his dislike to Grant was palpable....

Disagree with the other comments there.

He let the game flow and let a lot of things go. Coventry could be just as wound up as us, no idea how Tanner avoided a booking but it was a balanced performance.

Thats how i saw it, though he wasn't helped in the second half by the clown masquerading as his assistant on the Ninian stand touchline

Agree with tackle on Ng but there was another defender level on the inside of Etete so yellow was correct imo
