The match officials for Saturday’s League One fixture between Mansfield Town and league leaders, Stockport County have been confirmed, with Scott Oldham set to referee the game.
Oldham has taken charge of games involving County on 12 previous occasions, first doing so in August 2014 in our 3-0 defeat away at Guiseley in the National League North. More recently, he oversaw our 2-0 loss to Bolton Wanderers in last season’s Bristol Street Motors Trophy.
He refereed Mansfield Town on two occasions last season, both in League Two, taking charge of their 4-1 win away at Notts County and their 9-2 victory at home to Harrogate Town.
In total, the official took charge of 41 games in all competitions last season from the Championship down to League Two. In that time, he issued a total of 119 yellow cards, eight red cards and awarded six penalties.
He has overseen two games so far this season, one in League Two and one in the Carabao Cup, showing seven yellow cards, no reds and awarding no penalties. His most recent game saw him referee Rotherham United’s 2-1 win over Crewe Alexandra in the cup.
The Assistant Referees at the One Call Stadium on Saturday will be Oliver Bickle and Ryan McIlravey, whilst Martin Woods will be the Fourth Official.
