Dean has some history with Cardiff, he was the referee for the 2008 FA Cup Final against Portsmouth and was the man in charge at Ninian Park in 2009 when he was hit on the head by a coin during a 1 - 1 draw between Cardiff and Swansea.

In 24 games this season he's issued 86 yellow cards and 3 red.
