Darren England to referee Albion v Arsenal after 10-card Amex visit | OneFootball

Darren England will referee Albion v Arsenal at the Amex, returning after issuing a personal-best 10 yellow cards on his last visit.

According to TheArgus.co.uk, the team includes assistants Scott Ledger and Alistair Nelson, fourth official Michael Salisbury, VAR Timothy Wood, a former Gloucestershire chief inspector, and VAR assistant James Mainwaring.

On his previous Amex assignment, Albion beat Liverpool 2-1 and England cautioned 10 players, five from each side, the only time he has reached double figures.

This season he has shown only nine yellows in three matches, most recently in Spurs’ 0-0 draw with Everton. The Seagulls’ meeting with the Gunners could be feisty.

Last term England handled the FA Cup final and oversaw Albion’s early-season win at home to Manchester City. He has refereed the Seagulls 12 times and dismissed Pervis Estupinan in a home defeat by Fulham.
