1 - fat and useless. Freck wiped out by their keeper should have been a pen. Andrade looked to be pushed over, more a pen than the one he gave against us. Gave us naff all apart from the obvious yet pulled us up for nothing. Fat, unfit and out of position, not up with play - how an earth did he pass the fitness test? Worst I’ve seen in a long while, we won in spite of him
 
3 - poor decision making and didn’t have the balls to give Freck a pen as he would have had to send their keeper off...
 
2- Fat, round his belly’s on the ground. Complete Homer who needs to grow a pair! How he is rated fit to referee in more than one content beggars belief.
 
2 - He was doing OK until Hortin and Thommo praised him and then he fell off a cliff. Two, possibly three including Wharton's shirt pull, penalties not given to Lincoln.

Shy with his cards when Vale started bringing players down on the half turn too.
 
0 - absolutely awful. Barely gave us a decision all game and as has been mentioned above the fact we scored six means his performance (or lack of) will be overlooked. Well it shouldn't be as he is clearly not fit enough or capable enough to referee at league two level...
 
5.5 - had a poor game, Andrade penalty shout too far away to call, Freck was wiped out basically so definitely a PK and keeper red card. I thought he got the cards about right, but maybe guilty of feeling sorry for a team getting hammered.

That was the 5th minute.....
 
3. Unfit, incompetent.

Good job he didn't affect the result. Challenge on Freck a potential leg breaker, a red and penalty. Challenge on Bruno vs their penalty? Little difference. 30 second + delay to book Miller for the nasty, late challenge on Eardley, unfathomable.

This sort of clown should not be refereeing at this level.
 
5. He seemed to be doing best for Port Vale but it still wasn't enough. To be fair, for our two penalty shouts and the one that was given for Vale he was about 100 yards nearer to the incidents than I was.
 
Going to go for a 3. Most of the big decisions were at the other end of the pitch to get a clear view during the match but having seen that challenge of Freck again it has to have been a red card and penalty. Was his inability to keep up with play a factor in many of the poor decisions??
