Well, according to the Official Site and BBC, the referee for tonight's match was Geoff Eltringham, not Michael Salisbury.

The website I use for the officials is usually very reliable, so I can only assume it was a late change.

I've taken his name directly off the BBC site for the rate the ref thread. Hope they were right!!!!!
He didn't look like the guy photographed above

I watched the highlights earlier and it does appear to be Geoff Eltringham.

Not happy, but nothing I can do about it if the usually reliable website is either wrong or the referee is changed last minute.

Here we go. A late change of referee!
