Meet The Ref – Carlisle |
Friday’s referee is Clive Penton from Sussex; he became a Football League referee in 2001 and last season he issued nearly 4 Yellow cards per game, but only sent off 4 players. Clive Penton needs no introduction to Swans fans; he refereed our game against Bristol City away in January 2006 – we lost 1-0 but he booked 7 Swans players and sent off Tom Williams in that game. But he has taken charge of 4 games since and hasn’t been as bad since, though he can tend to be very fussy referee and does often book every foul and we’ve only won 2 games out the 12 he’s refereed in. Stats for 06/07 season 29 Games, 105 Yellows, 4 Reds.
