Man In The Middle | Robert Madley to officiate Grimsby clash

Robert Madley will be the man in the middle for Newport County's clash against Grimsby Town on Saturday afternoon.

The established official is a regular at Championship and League One level, and will officiate just his second League Two fixture of the season at Blundell Park. 

His most recent game as referee was Watford’s 2-1 home defeat to Coventry City on March 9. The last time Madley took charge of a League Two encounter was on the December 29, when he was the man in the middle for Notts County’s 5-0 victory over Morecambe at Meadow Lane.

His officiating team for today will consist of Lee Venamore (Assistant), Carl Flitch-Jackson (Assistant) and the fourth official will be Dale Baines.
