Meet The Ref - Derby County v Latics

Latics kick off the new season on Saturday with a visit to Pride Park to face promotion favourites, Derby County, in charge of the game will be Poulton-le-Fylde official, Scott Oldham. 

 

Scott Oldham

Oldham broke on to the National List for the start of the 2017/18 season, his first game was a League 2 encounter between Cheltenham and Crawley which finished 1:0 to the home side

Since hitting the big time Scott Oldham has gone on to take charge of 204 games with a ratio of 3 yellows per game and just 16 reds in total, during the 2020/21 season he was redless across 33 games. The two he issued last campaign were both 2nd yellows, his last straight red coming back in February 2020.  

 Previous Games

This will be the 40 year olds fourth Latics game of his career, his first was in our administration season, a 1:1 draw with Plymouth at the DW Stadium, Curtis Tilt finding his way into the notebook with both sides picking up a booking apiece as well as a goal each.

Oldham has been in charge of two Derby games previously, both came last season, both in League One and both ended all square, a goalless at Shrewsbury on the 4th August 2022 and back in February this year, a 1:1 home draw with Lincoln City in the league.

Last season Scott Oldham refereed 38 games, of which 2 were in the Championship, the rest spread between League One & Two and the cup competitions.
