It'll be all Wright on the night again

Last updated : 03 November 2009 By @pnemad

Kevin Wright played amateur football until he was 25 and decided to become a referee when he broke his wrist for the fifth time and felt it wouldn't stand up to any further physical football challenges.

He joined the National list of Referees in 2003 and took charge of his first match on 9/8/03 when Southend beat Cheltenham 2-0.

The two red cards he has produced this season both came in the Swindon versus Milwall game on 10 October. This will be Kevin Wright's third Championship of the season, his last match was also in the Championship on 17/10/09 when Ipswich and Swansea drew 1-1.

His last Watford game was the 1-0 home victory over Scunthorpe last season when Rasiak scored the only goal in the FA Cup tie. This will be the second season on the trot he has refereed the Watford versus PNE game.
