Bond to referee AFC Wimbledon cup clash

Eddie Howe's side host the League Two outfit, who knocked out Premier League outfit Ipswich Town via penalties in round two, at St. James' Park and this will be the first game Bond has refereed involving the Magpies.

The Lancashire official made his Premier League debut as a referee in January 2023 during Fulham's 1-0 away win against Leicester City and was an assistant referee during Newcastle's 2-1 home win against Tottenham Hotspur earlier this month.
