Saturday's referee is now Mick Jones from Cheshire rather than Nigel Miller from County Durham.
The switch was made as Leeds manager Wise was recently charged with using abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour towards Miller after being sent to the stands during his side's game at Southend in March, the referee having failed to award Leeds a late penalty.
After the game Wise launched into his usual tirade: "It wasn't a push, the ref gave the penalty and then the linesman said it was our player's arm - but it wasn't.
"You only need to look at the reaction of the Southend players - they all had their hands on their heads.
"I've had problems with him before. I told him I don't want him as a referee. For me he's not good and I don't want him to referee for me again.
"I hope there was an assessor here and I hope they put him down a couple of divisions. He gave the penalty and then he pointed the other way. It's a disgrace."
Replacement Jones has shown 145 yellow and 11 red cards in 38 games so far this season. His last Town game was the 0-0 draw at Leicester City in August 2005.
