Wilshire FA official referee Simon Hooper, 33 year old, began his Football
League career as an assistant referee in 2006/07. At the same time he was a
referee in non-league football. Hooper was promoted to a Football League referee
the following season.
Mr Hooper last reffed a Fulham game in December 2015 when we won 4-1 against Rotherham
in the Championship and he booked no one. He also reffed our 3-2 away defeat at Sheff Wed
last season in which he booked O'Hara and Burn.
Reading last had the pleasure of Ref Hooper's company back in December 2015
when they lost 1-0 at Wolves.
Last season he refed 40 games and dished out 131 yellows, 3.3 yellows per game,
and 4 reds.
This season so far he has refed 33 games waving 80 yellows, a well below average 2.4
yellows per game, and 2 reds.

Reading striker Matej Vydra is set to miss the visit of Fulham.
The Watford loanee is due back in training on Friday following a hamstring injury but is not expected to feature.
Boss Brian McDermott otherwise hopes to have a virtually fully-fit squad available.
Midfielder Aaron Tshibola is the only long-term absentee with a hamstring injury.

Fulham will be without Richard Stearman after the defender's red card late in the home defeat by Middlesbrough.
Defender Ryan Fredericks is a doubt having been forced off in the first half against Boro because of a back problem.
But full-back Fernando Amorebieta is available again having now served a one-match ban.
Goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli continues his recovery from a knee problem, while forward Cauley Woodrow (broken metatarsal) and Danish midfielder Lasse Christensen (hamstring) are both still unavailable.
