    That clarifies somwhat Rod thanks . In effect they are on the dreaded zero hours contract…..to only be used when “ called” or rostered in engineering shift work speak.

    To call them professional referees without mentioning such is a tad disingenuous by the EFL?

    When someone is classed as professional, the general meaning is that of “ full time” ?

    It is probably worth pointing out that the referee for last Saturday was Tom Nield, who is in Select Group 2 and not the National Group.

    How long is a piece of string? . Station access charges, track access charges , locomotive charge, fuel charge , rolling stock hire , staff charges . Football charters run by supporter organusations are pretty well dead these days unless backed up by travel companies . I haven’t seen , nor heard of a football charter in 20 years years on the job! They may run in the North of England but certainly not in the south .

    Train hire normally use scheduled services to garner bookings for large groups or adding
    “ Private” carriages to an existing train . Whole train , non scheduled charters are rare as hens ….as I said earlier . It not impossible but v v expensive . If Leeds fans were struggling to get back from London last week …. I suggest we have zero hope !

    I emailed to ask and they said yes I had to return them to the ticket office. So I dropped them off with a brief note in an envelope for Mick Lamb at our last night game - refund had been processed within the hour.

    The special trains to Barnsley were a bit special, on arrival there was the welcoming committee. It was like the battle of Agincourt, on departing, Barnsley fans used to drop rocks off bridges onto the train, i kid you not.

    I went on a few of Patsy's train outings. Quite an experience. Patsy was a character and some. Wonder what happened to him.
