Meet The Ref - Wigan Athletic v Stoke City

Name: Jeremy Simpson 

Born: May 1975
Place of Birth: Carnforth

 

 



A former Premier League and FIFA International assistant referee, Simpson is part of the ‘Select Group 2’ of professional ref’s after rising rapidly through the refereeing ranks, he was at Conference level in 2012 and only found his feet in the Championship in the 2015/16 campaign when of the 35 games he took charge of over the season just 15 were at 2nd tier level.

So far this season 20 of his 25 games have been in the Championship.

 

Jerry has already been in charge of us 3 times this season 3-0 defeat at PNE, home defeat to Reading 1-3 back in November and our 1-0 win against Millwall in February.

 

Simpson has had just the two Stoke games this campaign, their 2-4 win at Oakwell against Barnsley in November and a goalless draw with Millwall at the Britannia in January.

 

Latics related Fact(s):
Simpson was the referee when the Latics put out virtually their youth team against Accrington Stanley in the Checkatrade Trophy back in 2017, not surprisingly they got a bit of a thumping.
