Man in the middle: Gavin Ward

26th February
First team

Gavin Ward will be the man in the middle when Swansea City host Bolton Wanderers at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday (3pm).

The Surrey official has taken charge of two Swans games so far this season, overseeing the Championship defeat at home to Bristol City and the FA Cup win at Aston Villa.

This will be the sixth time in total that he has refereed a Swansea fixture, having first officiated in the EFL in 2007.

He will be assisted by Dean Treleaven and Akil Howson, while Brett Huxtable will be the fourth official.
