Man in the Middle - Southend United

Last updated : 21 September 2011 By Deano

Graham Salisbury from Lancashire.

The 44 year-old is one of the most experienced officials on the circuit having stood at all league levels, but has a reputation of dishing out the cards over the years. He first started reffing at local level back in 1985.

Last season he was in the middle for two matches at Don Valley involving the Millers, the 3-3 draw with Burton Albion in September when both sides shared six bookings and the 5-0 thumping of Port Vale on New years Day, where five players saw yellow to add to goalkeeper Stuart Tomlinson's sending off for the visitors.

This season Salisbury has taken charge of 11 games, handing out 35 yellows and just the one red so far.

Running the lines will be Mr A. Holmes and Mr B. Khatib.

The fourth official is Mr. P Davison.
