The Premier League have now announced the Match Day officials that will take charge of the game against Manchester United this weekend.

Crystal Palace host Manchester United on Saturday October 31 for the game at Selhurst Park and the match carries a 3pm kick off.

Referee: Mike Jones
Linesmen: M Mullarkey and A Nunn
Fourth Official: J Moss

Match Day referee Jones (Chester) has officiated one Crystal Palace game this season – the one nil loss to Manchester City. He showed five yellow cards in that game, two of which to us.

He has however already taken in ten other matches so far in 2015-16 and in those games, across all competitions and football divisions, he has handed out a total of 38 yellow cards and one red card.

He was most card happy in the match between Leeds and Sheffield Wednesday on August 22 with a total of six yellows being shown. Six was also the number between Rotherham and Sheffield Wednesday on October 23.

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