Not many more away days this year for the Glovers’ faithful, it’s off to Woking on Saturday and joining us making the trip there will be our referee for the afternoon, Mr Aaron Farmer.
You’d think, with a name like Farmer, he’d have refereed a Somerset side more, but it is in fact his first ever time officiating the Glovers.
The Colchester-based whistler has taken charge of a number of Woking games, including a fairly routine 3-0 away win at Ebbslfeet.
He did book Dale Gorman in that game, but let’s face it, who hasn’t booked Dale Gorman at some point in there life? I’m sure I have at least once.
In total, he’s reffed the Cards four times, awarded them two penalties and booked 19 of their players (not all of them were Dale Gorman).
He even sent off Jermaine Anderson in a 3-2 win over Gateshead last season, two yellow cards in the 88th and 90+11th minute, some classic time wasting was simply not tolerated.
Mr Farmer will be assisted by Chris Myatt, Steve Finch and Andy Hickman is our fourth official.
