The man in charge of the Emirates FA Cup second round replay between Peterborough United and Woking at the ABAX Stadium is ANTONY COGGINS.
Rookie referee Antony Coggins is in his first season as a Football League referee after spending just one season officiating in the National League.
Although Posh have yet to have Coggins referee any of their matches, he has been an assistant referee at two Posh matches. The last time was when Posh traveled to Swindon in January 2014 for a League One clash with the first match coming in the Championship when Posh played at Birmingham City.
Both fixtures ended in defeat for Posh; 2-1 and 1-0 respectively. Nat Knight-Percival scored the goal against the Robins while Lee Tomlin saw red with five minutes remaining. Current Posh boss Grant McCann came on as a substitute six minutes before the sending off in place of Tommy Rowe.
Woking have had the pleasure of Coggins as a referee, not once but on three occasions! All three came last season and all three ended in draws. They came at Solihull Moors (2-2) and at the Kingfield Stadium against Eastleigh (3-3) and North Ferriby (1-1).
So far this season, Coggins has officiated 16 matches issuing 33 yellow cards and one red card.
That one red card co-incided with the last match he officiated. That was at Port Vale on Saturday when Vale won two-nil against Cambridge United. The U`s had Uche Ikpeazu sent off in the 90th minute.
The assistant referees for this match will be Paul Hobday and Akil Howson. The fourth official is Will Finnie.
