Matt Massias In The Middle For Foxes Clash

Last updated : 12 March 2004 By Brian Cartlidge

The last time Mr Massias was in charge of a game at St. Andrews was in last seasons game against Fulham when the West London side were reduced to nine men after both Rufus Brevett and Steve Marlet were sent off. Blues had Robbie Savage and Paul Devlin booked on that day.

Mr Massias was also the referee in charge of Blues away game at Manchester City last season when Robbie Savage was harshly booked for trying to take a free-kick quickly.

The South Yorkshire official has been in charge of just one Blues game so far this season, that being in the 1-0 away win at Newcastle back in August. The now departed Jeff Kenna being the only Blues player booked on that day.

Leicester have not been involved in a game officiated by Mr Massias so far this season.

In total, Mr Massias has been in charge of 13 Premiership games so far this season and in these games he has shown 47 yellow cards and 2 reds.
