Alan Wiley - Burntwood, Staffordshire.
Not only is Alan Wiley a referee, but is also a part-time policeman which should endear him to the Premiership League crowds.
Making his Premiership debut in the 2000/01 season, Wiley kept a low profile and avoided any controversial decisions.
He worked his way up the through local leagues to the Football League in 1991, joined the Premiership League list as a linesman in 1994 before becoming a fully-fledged top-flight ref.
Ref Wiley has been one of the better refs to look after Fulham in recent times unfortunately he has not been a lucky ref for Fulham as in his 20 officiations in Premiership games Fulham have won 5, drawn 5 and lost 10. To be fair 11 of his 20 games were away fixtures and, of course, we are not known for our courage on the road. Of the 11 away games Fulham have won one, drawn 2 and lost 8. That means of course that of the 9 home games we have won 4, drawn 3 and lost 2.
Ref Wiley has issued 60 yellows in the 20 games with 28 going to Fulham players.
There have been just 3 red cards with only one going to a Fulham player.
Newcastle versus Fulham has been bossed four times by Mr Wiley, one home and three
aways, of which The Cottagers have won one, drawn two and lost one. The win was
the single home game.
Referee Stats - 2007/2008

|
Ref Wiley is blowing his whistle more than his Premiership referee mates
and when he whistles he is also more likely to give a yellow card.
In fact so far this season he is busier than he has been since he first became a Premiership
ref.
Fortunately Ref Wiley is well below average in terms of red cards and penalty
decisions. Someone must have spoken to him about penalties because last year he
gave 13 penalties in comparison to the one this season.

Ref Wiley has managed to whistle for virtually the same number
fouls for home and away squads.
His yellow card decisions are more likely to go against visiting players but at least not as bad as most of his mates.

02-03-2002 Premiership Fulham 0-2 Liverpool 5y 0r
Bookings: Boa Morte, Brevett, Legwinski (Fulham) Hyypia, Wright (Liverpool)
Fulham thought they should have been awarded a penalty two minutes after the interval when Luis Boa Morte went down under a challenge from Xavier.
But instead of pointing to the spot, referee Wiley booked the Portuguese international for diving, to the fury of the home fans. At the time it seemed a poor decision as Xavier had been leaning on Boa Morte with his left arm. With the aid of t.v. footage it was clear that a penalty should have been given but Wiley choose to let the decision stand rather than withdraw the caution.
