Latics kick off their Vertu Trophy campaign on Tuesday evening with a home tie against League Two club, Salford City, Derby based official, Richard Eley is scheduled to be in charge.
The 28 year old is in his 2nd season as an EFL referee but he is still dipping his toe back into the National League, his four games so far this season have been split evenly between League Two and The National League.
Previous Games
Richard Eley has refereed the Latics once previously, last season’s League One away day at Crawley, a 1:1 draw on a cold Tuesday in February, Dale Taylor with the goal, Owen Dale and Jensen Weir picking up yellows
Eley was also the 4th official for our opening game of last season, our 0:1 home defeat to Charlton in August 2024.
This will be the Derby based official’s first game involving Salford City.
