Last updated : 11 February 2014 By Covsupport News Service

The currently appointed referee for Coventry City's League One game against Bradford City on Saturday is Craig Pawson from South Yorkshire.

Craig began refereeing at the age of fourteen and was promoted on to the national list of referees in 2008. His career has been heavily influenced by his father who was a national list assistant referee.

The last Coventry City game that Mr Pawson refereed was the 2-1 defeat at the Ricoh Arena to Stevenage in September 2012.

Other City matches he has refereed are the 3-0 defeat at Ipswich in September 2011, the home FA Cup against Crystal Palace in January 2011, the  2-0 win at Scunthorpe in November 2010 and the 2-1 win over Blackpool in January 2009.

He was fourth official for City's game at Valley Parade earlier this season.

 

 

 

His assistants are Robert Merchant and Constantine Hatzidakis. The Fourth Official is former Walsgrave resident Andre Marnner.
