Meet The Ref - Latics v Reading


Saturday sees us welcome playoff chasing Reading to the Brick Community Stadium, the referee for the game is scheduled to be Staffordshire official, Oliver Yates.


Ollie Yates made it on to the National List of referees back in 2016, his first game coming in the League 2 meeting between Yeovil Town and Notts County on the 6th August, since making his debut he has taken charge of over 250 games.

Previous Games

Yates has been in charge of four Latics games previously, the last of which was our defeat away at Donny in the EFL Trophy back in 2024, a 1:1 draw on the night but going out the competition in a penalty shoot out.

The other three all came in League One, two away, Charlton and Wimbledon in the administration season and last season Yates was at the DW Stadium for our 2:1 win over highflying Peterborough, Sessegnon, Lang and Godo picking up yellows in that game.
