Latics round off the 'three home games in a week' on Saturday when high flying Stevenage are in town for their first ever visit to Wigan, the referee for the game is scheduled to be Blackburn official, Ben Toner.
Following a last minute change of officials in our home game against
Carlisle back in December, we once again try to tempt local(ish) lad Ben Toner
down to the DW.
Now in his 9th season as an EFL referee, Toner worked his apprenticeship during three seasons at National League level, he was subsequently promoted to the National List of Ref’s in the summer of 2015 and began refereeing Football League games that coming season, a quiet debut AFC Wimbledon v Plymouth League Two game on the 8th August 2015, a two-nil away win for Argyle and just the one yellow card.
Previous Games
Ben Toner has refereed the Latics on five occasions previously, the last game was our away win at Crewe Alex in March 2022, a goal apiece from Josh Magennis and Will Keane giving the Latics a 0:2 win on o0ur way to lifting the League One title.
Toner’s last Stevenage games came in the 2021/22 season, there were two, an early season win in the EFL Trophy, 1:2 away at Oxford United and a 0:2 League Two defeat at home against Mansfield in March ‘22
