Ipswich and Norwich have the habit of drawing short cards in the match. Here is an intense and important East Anglian Derby, but the quiet judge Robinson will probably take a conversational approach to this TV match.
It speaks for the game:
The last time the derby went over the line was in 2010. Since the game, there have been 7 mutual races where everyone has gone under the line.
The match is shown live on TV, and it may often cause the referee to spend more time on conversation than to distribute cards to show a positive appearance.
I think the market overestimates the importance of being a rival show. The clubs are located 40 miles apart and not a local showdown.
Norwich meets Arsenal in the league team just 2 days after, and it can put a little damper on the tackles and aggressiveness of the players.
Judge Tim Robinson is very seasoned in the Championship, and last season as well as current he is the referee who has judged the most matches in the series.
Robinson has in the two Championship matches he has judged this year just handed 3 yellow cards per. match and only 3 out of 10 matches he has handed over the line.
Midfielder Tettey often gets short for Norwich, but is out of this show with an injury.
Last season, both matches competed under the line with 1 and 2 yellow cards, respectively.
You should be aware of this:
Judge Robinson does not award many yellow cards, but is the referee in the season who has awarded the most red.
The match is shown on TV and it can make players even more keen to show up with fighting and aggressiveness.
In the areas of Suffolk and Norfolk there are no professional clubs other than the two, so you fight for mockery throughout the area.
Ipswich is the team in the series who has made 3. most free kick in the season.
Norwich has won 4th most cards this season, and is generally a team that tries to create a physical takeover in the matches.
A former judge Hackett has stated that the players in this show were ready for a boxing match more than playing football.
The noise of the stadium becomes huge as spectators go a lot in this show and it can spur the players for more fighting.
There have been verbal fights between the clubs in which the Ipswich bosses and Norwich’s striker have longed for each other.
