Meet the Officials | Crewe Alexandra (H)

Edward Duckworth

Referee Edward Duckworth will oversee Bristol Rovers’ clash against Crewe Alexandra at The Memorial Stadium in Sky Bet League Two.

Duckworth has been the man in the middle for Bristol Rovers games four times in his career as a referee, the last time coming this season when the Gas lost 1-0 to Notts County in November.

In comparison, Duckworth has only refereed the Railwaymen once in his career. It also came in the 2025/26 campaign, with Lee Bell's men drawing 2-2 with Newport County in December at the Mornflake Stadium.

In his eight-year career so far, Duckworth has taken charge of 163 matches, the majority of which have come in the National League North and League One, as well as ten appearances in both the FA Cup and EFL Cup. His most recent fixture came right at the end of February, where Cardiff City beat Doncaster Rovers 4-0 in the third tier.

Assistant Referees Harley Hetherington and Mark Senior, and Fourth Official George Laflin will join Edward Duckworth.
