The Latics will be back at the Brick Community Stadium on Tuesday, a rearranged fixture welcoming some familiar faces back to Wigan Athletic, with the visitors Reading managed by Leam Richardson, the referee for the game is scheduled to be Devon official, Lee Swabey.
Lee Swabey, an experienced ref who has been around in the EFL since the 2015/16 season.
Previous Games
Swabey has refereed the Latics three times previously, two away from home, Shrewsbury in February 2024, a solitary goal scored by Matt Smith settled that game in our favour, Sean Clare, Baba Adeeko and Jason Kerr all picking up yellow cards.
A Charlie Kelman double saw us pick up a point away at Charlton in Swabey’s next Latics game, Cal McManaman receiving a yellow card in a 2:2 draw at the Valley.
The last time Lee Swabey ref’d the Latics came in January last season, our 0:3 home defeat against Birmingham City in January, Toby Sibbick and Jason Kerr both picking up yellow cards.
