The last time Ref Harrington bossed Fulham was in the 1-0 away win at Blackburn Rovers on February 8th 2020. Mr Warrington only boooked one player, Bobby De Cordova-Reid (f) of Fulham.
Prior to the Blackburn game Ref Harrington last refed a Fulham game in February 2018 in our promotion year when we beat Aston Villa 2-0 at the Cottage. He booked one player from each side the Fulham player was Stefan Johansen for a foul in the 67th minute. Ryan Sessegnon and Floyd Ayite were the goal scorers.

Last season he refed 31 games and dished out 103 yellows and 3 reds, so an average 3.3 yellows per game. So far this season he has refed
29 games and issued 74 yellows, so a low average of 2.5, and 3 reds.
