The last time Blues had the pleasure of the Northumberland-based offical refreeing one of their games was way back on 13th Aptil 2009 when he took charge of our home game against Plymouth Argyle. Goalkeeper Maik Taylor was sent off and Cameron Jerome and the now departed duo of Damien Johnson and Radhi Jaidi were the three Blues players booked in the 1-1 draw at St Andrews.
Stuart Burt and Mick Mcdonough will be Mike Olivers assistants for the game at St Andrews on Saturday afternoon.
