How does she do it? How does Amy Rayner manage to bring out Harriers’ worst performances?

Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t a rant against women referees, although I don’t think shes a particularly good one, it’s just that we never play well when she’s in charge and, more to the point, we never win.

Seven times so far we have had the misfortune to have her in the middle and have managed just two draws from those games.  Not only that but the performances have never been great and often been amongst the worst of the season, for instance last night at Oxford, last season’s defeat at Droylsden and also at Grays.

Her full list of shame reads like this:

• 19/11/2005 Harriers 0-0 York City
• 02/01/2006 Altrincham 3-0 Harriers
• 17/02/2007 Harriers 0-2 Exeter City
• 18/08/2007 Grays Athletic 5-1 Harriers
• 26/01/2008 Droylsden 1-0 Harriers
• 12/04/2008 Harriers 1-1 Histon
• 25/11/2008 Oxford United 1-0 Harriers
