Tomorrow's referee is Mark Brown from Hull.
He is In his second season. His first didn't seem to be going too badly with a couple of Championship appointments, but he fell foul of the refereeing authorities for inappropriate use of social networking sites (something to do with a joke about Liverpool) and was suspended for a short while.
He made his first visit to Roots Hall towards the end of last season for our 4-0 win over a hapless Bradford City team (one caution each), having refereed Southend once before in the early season away defeat at Bury (again one caution each).
He appears to have been forgiven his indiscretions as he is again getting good appointments. His card count is comfortably the right side of average, as it was last season. Just one cautionary note; he has yet to show a red card this season with just 34 yellows from 13 games.
In his profile he is asked who has been the biggest influence on his career. He replies with the usual trite comments about colleagues and then adds "also my ex-wife for moving out so I could concentrate on my football and not have to listen to her moaning all day and night!".
Gary Hilton from Upholland (Lancs) and Peter Gooch from Wigan will be running the lines and Jason Tyas from Holme Valley in the West Riding will be 4th official.
For those of you following Southend Manor to Rushden, the referee will be Jake Hillier from New Barnet, one of last Saturday's "linos" at Roots Hall. He'll be assisted by Lee Marshallsay and Steve Phipps with Andreas Anastasiou as 4th official.
