Rotherham United travel to Lincoln for the rearranged game against Lincoln City at Sincil Bank on Tuesday night when the man in the middle is Peter Wright from Merseyside.

Peter began his referee career in the Craven Minor Football League in Southport going on to referee the Liverpool County’s FA Academy Programme at both Premier League clubs in Merseyside. He also had a spell with the Durham County FA while at University in the area and was promoted to the Football League for the start of the 2018/19 season.

The only other time he has been in charge of a Millers game was in December 2019 when Fleetwood Town were the visitors at the New York Stadium. Ched Evans put the visitors in front with a sixty-second minute equaliser coming from Freddie Ladapo. But just a minute later Evans had put Town back in the lead but a Matt Crooks goal ten minutes from time saw the Millers get a point. Joe Mattock, Adam Thompson and Trevor Clarke were booked for the Millers that day.

In the six games he has had the whistle for this season, Peter has shown nineteen yellow cards and no red.

Running the line on Tuesday we have Abbas Khan and Stephen Wade and the Fourth Official will be Johnathon Bickerdike.
