Tom Reeves
Another very inexperienced ref at this level
Only done 4 league 1 games so far
In his 14 various games this season he has dished out 54 yellow cards

Let a lot go including the challenge in the centre of the pitch, last season would have been a foul for Charlton this season not always (consistency) and then Bradley got on the end of the cross which on scrutiny went in finally off his hand, not easy to see and would have been disallowed if there was VAR in our Division.
Also after we had gone 2-1 up he missed a challenge in the midfield that should have been a card, but played on and I do not think he went back to it.
Middle of the road Ref with some potential, kind of what you get in this league.

He disallowed a Morecambe goal for offside which was shown to be a yard onside. 2 penalties for Ipswich , no complaints about the first which they then missed but for the 2nd Bedeau clearly played the ball. Ipswich are a good side but the referee influenced the score.

I know some fans still see it this way, but both clubs linked by nearby location are not linked financially.
This season and last they are slightly better, but there are some truly awful Ref's still, rushed up the pyramid without experience to control a game and the older Pro's spot this and manipulate them. Hence Ipswich players running round with the imaginary card.
Saw the highlights of the Morecambe game, thought the offside was a rough call made by the Lino but the Ref can over rule, and the second Pen is a tough one to call if he was not sure then could have been swayed by the Lino. I think at that point an experienced Ref calls it on what he saw and takes criticism afterwards if wrong.
Seen enough from that game to think DA is getting things and style under control, still think you will be ok. How long that is ok for the fans is another matter, teams can yoyo between 1 & 2 suspect you will need to survive with DA another couple of seasons before moving forwards.
