Drysdale to Referee at Stockport

Darren Drysdale from Lincolnshire is set to referee next Saturday's League Two match between Stockport County and Hereford United.

Supporters may remember he was the referee at Edgeley Park on August 5th 2006, the day the Bulls returned to the League and won the game 2-0 thanks to goals from Stuart Fleetwood and Tamika Mkandawire.

Since then the Bulls have only met Drysdale once, on New Years Day 2008 when he was in charge of a home game against Notts County which ended goal-less.

In fact Drysdale only refereed two League games last season and just twelve the season before. His other occupation is a sergeant in the RAF.

Drysdale is no stranger to controversy. In 2006 he booked Dean Windass for swearing at him in an offical car park at Bradford. The player received a five match ban.

Then there was a game at Northampton in April 2008 when he made the visitors, Oldham, change their socks.

To date this season he's only been in the middle for one game in which he gave out two yellow cards.
