Blues have already had the pleasure of the Northamptonshire-based official refereeing three of their games so far this season.
The last time Peter Walton took charge of a Blues game was in our Premier League home fixture against Chelsea on 26th December. Lee Bowyer was the only Blues player booked in the 0-0 draw at St Andrews on that occasion. In total, Peter Walton has taken charge of 27 games so far this season in which he has handed out 61 yellow cards and 5 reds.
David Richardson and Paul Thompson will be Peter Walton's assistants for the game at The Stadium Of Light on Saturday afternoon.
