Stats
Welch is part of a development group of officials being fast-tracked through to the divisions by the PGMOL to try and improve the standards of refereeing at the top end of the game. She became the first woman to referee a Premier League game when she made her debut at Fulham 0-2 Burnley on December 23. She hasn’t had a QPR game before, but she was fourth official for the controversial 1-0 loss at Leeds in October where goalkeeper coach Gavin Ward was booked for dissent towards her.
In ten games this season she’s shown 51 yellows and two reds, including one in her last outing at Sheff Wed’s 1-0 win at Preston. She tops out with eight yellows at Derby 1-1 Wycombe. Last season she showed 87 yellows and no reds at all in a year that culminated with three games at the Women’s World Cup in Australia. It also included her first two outings in the Championship – Birmingham 1-2 Preston and West Brom 1-0 Wigan. She has never refereed QPR or Bournemouth before.

Blogs 31 bloggersKnees-up Mother Brown #19 by wessex_exile February, and the U’s enter the most pivotal month of the season. Six games in just four weeks, with four of them against sides also in the bottom six. By March we should be either well clear of danger, or even deeper in the sh*t. With Danny Cowley’s U’s still unbeaten, and looking stronger game on game, I’m sure it’ll be the former, but first we have to do our bit to consign Steve ‘Sour Grapes’ Cotterill’s FGR back to non-league. After our shambolic 5-0 defeat at New Lawn, nothing would give me greater pleasure, even if it meant losing one of my closest awaydays in the process. What’s the excuse going to be today Steve – shocking pitch, faking head injuries, Mexican banditry or some other bit of sour-grapery bullsh*t? Leeds United Polls |
