LUFC Leeds v Birmingham Match Officials

Graham Salisbury will be the man in charge when Leeds United welcome Birmingham City to Elland Road on Saturday.

The Lancashire official has taken charge of 12 games so far this season, showing 44 yellow cards (3.66 per game) and 4 reds.

Last season he took charge of 37 games, showing 111 yellow cards (3 per game) and 5 reds.

He was in charge of Leeds on two occasions last season, both at Elland Road.

Leeds lost both by the same score, 2-1 against both Barnsley and Brighton and Hove Albion.

Salisbury was the man in charge of Leeds final home league game in the 2009/10 season when he sent off Max Gradel in the 2-1 win over Bristol Rovers, to ensure promotion to the Championship.

You have to go back to the 2008/09 season for the last time he was in charge of Birmingham. On that occasion they beat Derby County 1-0 at home.

Referee: Graham Salisbury (Lancashire)
Assistants: Christopher Akers & Peter Wright
Fourth Official: Scott Duncan
