Woolmer to Referee at Chesterfield

Andy Woolmer from Northamptonshire has been appointed to referee next Saturday's League Two match between Chesterfield and Hereford United.

Woolmer is well known to Hereford United and its supporters because of a certain sending off in a Conference semi-final. But that was a long time ago.

However the last time the Bulls met Woolmer was at Millwall in late October 2008 and he didn't keep his cards in his pocket on that occassion either as he sent one player off from both sides.

Referee Andy Woolmer was once again in the action, dishing out two red cards in the second half. Firstly Jimmy Abdou was sent off for a lunge on Clint Easton, before Nick Chadwick was shown his marching orders for a second bookable offence to level the teams up.

To date this season he has been in charge of 24 games and given out 60 yellow and just 2 red cards.
