Referee Paul Tierney was promoted to the Select Group of Referees ahead of the 2015/16 season after a successful seven years on the National List.
The Lancashire FA official became a member of the National Group of Referees ahead of the 2009/10 campaign, with Macclesfield Town against Notts County on the opening weekend of the League Two season being the first fixture he refereed.
Ref Tierney last refed Fulham last season in the 1-0 home win over Millwall in November, two Millwall players were booked.
Earlier in the season he bossed Fulham in the 2-0 win at Ipswich in August and had a quiet game issuing just one yellow card.
The last time Ref Tierney refed an Arsenal game was in their 4-0 away win against Nottingham Forest in the League Cup back in September 2016. Five yellow cards were shown just one to an Arsenal player.
Last season Ref Tierney reffed 32 games dishing out 81 yellows, a well below average of 2.5 cards a game, and NO red cards.
His busiest games recently were the games between Boro v Brentford and Swansea v Huddersfield last season when he booked six players in each game
