The Football Association have now announced the Match Day officials that will take charge of the game between Tottenham Hotspur and Newport County this midweek.

Tottenham Hotspur host Newport County on Wednesday February 7 for the FA Cup Fourth Round replay at Wembley Stadium and the match carries a 7.45pm kick off.

Referee: Stuart Attwell
Assistant Refs: Stuart Burt and Harry Lennard
Fourth Official: Kevin Friend
VAR & AVAR: Scott Graham and Darren Cann

Match Day referee Attwell has officiated 20 games in 2017/18, showing 69 yellow cards and one red card.

He took in 27 games in 2016/17 with a return of 90 yellow cards and eight red cards.

That season his highest card count was five yellows and three reds in the game between Brighton and Sheffield Wednesday. He showed seven yellows and two reds in the Oxford v Swindon Town game. He also showed seven yellows in the game between Southampton and Middlesbrough.

He took in 44 matches in 2015-16 and in those games, across all competitions and football divisions, he handed out a total of 118 yellow cards and four red cards.

He was most card happy in the match between Plymouth and Crawley on October 3 with a total of six yellows being shown.

Let`s hope it`s not another repeat and more of the players edge closer to automatic bans.
