Matthew Phillips introduces us to the man who will take charge of Saturday's game at Hartlepool

The referee scheduled to take charge of Saturday’s game is Lee Probert from Gloucestershire; he became a football league referee in 2003 and has taken charge of 7 Premier League this season. Mr Probert will take charge of his 7^th Swansea game – we haven’t lost a game with him in charge yet (won 4 and drew 2).

He averages just under 3 yellows per game and has only sent off 3 players so far this season – Which suggest he lets the game run and is fairly lenient. The assistant referees are Gary Stott from Greater Manchester and Rob Martin from South Yorkshire

Stats so far this season:

32 Games,

73 Yellows,

3 Reds.
