History

No previous QPR appointments as a referee.

Stats

Robinson stepped up to the Football League list in 2012/13, prior to which he'd been refereeing in the Conference. He spent the majority of his first three seasons in the bottom two divisions, and only had two Championship games during 2014/15. He finished that campaign with 120 yellows and three reds from 31 appointments.

This will be his ninth second tier game of this season, and given it's a televised derby match it suggests he's impressed people on his rounds so far. He's been prolific with the ywllows — 102 in 27 appointments so far (3.77 a game) — but has only sent off four players so far, and two of those were in the same Yeovil v Carlisle match a fortnight back. Those reds, and nine yellows, are his biggest haul from a single game this season by some distance.
