Meet The Ref - Chesterfield
Meet The Ref - Chesterfield |
The referee for the game against Chesterfield is Lee Mason from Lancashire, Lee became a Football League ref in 2002 and he has also refereed a few Premier League games. The last time he refereed a Swans game was in the Play Off Final against Barnsley, where I think he had quite a good game - although I try not to think about that match too much. Lee Mason averages just 2.4 yellow cards per game and he will be joined by Steven Cummins from Cheshire and Barry Sygmuta from Yorkshire. Stats so far this season: 7 Games, 17 Yellows, 1 Red.

Swansea City head to Watford this week for a midweek fixture at Vicarage Road on Wednesday night (7:45pm) The Swans have behind them three games undefeated and things are on the up. Despite that it isn’t that long ago Swans fans were looking down in fear of relegation. The Swans may have not put their visitors away as clinically as they threatened yesterday afternoon at the Swansea com, but it was another victory at home and a huge sigh of relief for many. It was another one of those desperate finishes at the Swansea. Com this afternoon as the Swans made it seven points from nine under interim head coach, Alan Sheehan. In a game which Swansea City really should have wrapped up in the first half it came down to resilience and character for the Swans to take all three points.

Current Hibernian. head coach, thirty six year old David Gray has been linked (we ask for caution on this) to the same role at Swansea City. We have already profiled Gray and he has had an extremely down then up season, however now in a controlled manner he speaks on this Swans link. The bedraggled, bespectacled, and befuddled figure walked along the shoreline in desperate dismay. His ship had crashed on the rocks of Fowey Point. Skipperless and rudderless, the imminent disaster was only a matter of time. Ahead, he saw a barnacled figure covered in seaweed and bladderwrack. “Ahoy matey. Jack Butty here. Don’t worry, we can get a new skipper and a boat, and aroving again we will go.” |
