With League wins between Southend and York tied at 15 each, we head northwards to a ground where we haven't won for over 25 years.
The referee in charge of tomorrow's fixture is Paul Tierney from Wigan, a referee in his 5th year who we have seen remarkably little of.
He has refereed us just twice before. Firstly, the 2-0 win at Bradford City in 2010/11 when Clohessey was sent off (there were 3 yellows apiece in addition to Clohessey's red) and more recently in the 1-0 home defeat to Burton the year before last when he showed 4 yellows to the visitors and one to Kalala. None of the 14 players we fielded that day remains on the club's playing staff, quite a turnround.
A referee who is quite highly rated, he has had plenty of Championship fixtures again this season and although he is only average with yellow cards, he certainly doesn't hold back with the reds. His 25 matches have produced 79 yellows and 10 reds.
Assisting will be David Plowright friom Mansfield and Paul Thompson from Chesterfield with Tony Peart travelling down from Northallerton in North Yorkshire to wield the numbers board.
