Dale’s first league game at Aldershot since December 2012 on Saturday will be refereed by AJI AJIBOLA.
The Kent official is in his third season refereeing on the National List and this will be his third Dale game of the campaign and the second in the last five weeks.
In October, Aji was in the middle for Dale’s FA Cup fourth qualifying round tie at Hereford, while just before Christmas he officiated our 2-2 draw at Halifax.
Before midweek, when he was due at Wealdstone v Southend, Mr Ajibola had refereed 11 matches in the National League this term, showing 54 yellow cards and one red card.
The Strategic Sales Lead for Canon UK has also overseen three games in the EFL Trophy (at Crawley, Reading and Wycombe), which suggests he could be on the radar for promotion to the EFL next term.
