Matthew Phillips introduces us to the man in the middle for Friday's clash with Luton Town
Friday’s referee is Andy Penn from the West Midlands, e has been a Football League referee since 2002 and this will be his second visit to the Liberty Stadium this season, he took charge of the Millwall home game in the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy – he sent off an opposition player in that game.
Andy Penn averages just 2 yellow cards per game this season and has sent off 5 players so far (one of which was rescinded afterwards). We have won just 2 of the 6 games Andy Penn has taken charge of.
In his first Football League game of his career he sent off Kristian O’Leary and an opposition player (Rushden) and then sent off Jamie Wood against Boston United.
