Not won a game where Trevor Kettle has officiated in over 7 years.

Given the small pool of referees and the frequency of them officiating a Dale game (this is Kettle's 10th game in 10 years) that has to be some kind of record?

Doubt it. It's more like some kind of coincidence, given that for the majority of those seven years (featuring a massive six games), we were a struggling League One side with very few wins to call on anywhere.

Bingo!

You're probably right.

Are there any other refs were we have a longer winless record than Kettle?

Dunno. It would take quite a lot of research, but it will no doubt correlate with the results of the team, in as much as when we've done well, the results are taking care of themselves.

Maybe Kettle isn't as bad as he's painted, though a quick online search produces a lot of fans' criticisms of his decisions (not only over-use of cards but also awarding soft penalties).

One criticism does have a link with tomorrow - John Yems, Crawley manager, interviewed by the Sussex Express after losing 1-4 at home to Port Vale on 30 October 2021:

Yems said: "People are saying we had a go and we tried, but you've got to do that.

"You pick up the paper up and it says we got beaten, and we've lost the last four games.

"And it's preventable. I think they [the goals] were all avoidable.

"It's another sending off. I'm not keeping on about the officials but some of the things that were going on out there again.

"They make it so hard, and they ruin the game for both sides, in my opinion.

"But it's nothing to do with the officials that we got beat, that's for sure.

"We went 1-0 up and I was pleased when we went it at half-time. They kept their shape and we were doing what we were doing.

"But we had another 45 minutes to play. We had a crazy 15 minutes, but credit to them they're a good side. Don't take anything away from them.

"We're not only climbing mountains now, we're building them. The good thing is we've only got Tranmere in the FA Cup!"

Lynch was given his marching orders on 12 minutes after an off the ball incident involving Vale's Nathan Smith from a Crawley corner.

Yems admitted he didn't see the incident, but would have liked referee Trevor Kettle to show some leniency with less than 15 minutes on the clock.

He added: "All I know is, Joel's telling me that he grabbed the fella. They were screaming it was an elbow, and if that's the case you deserve to go.

"But even they [Port Vale] have just said he was wrestling in the box. I didn't see it but, if it's 10 minutes into the game, book him or something.

"Why send him off? He's not killed anyone."

That reads the same as every John Yems interview.
