Meet the officials | Birmingham City
19th September
First team

John Busby will be the man in the middle when Swansea City take on Birmingham City on Saturday.
It will be the 13th time the Oxfordshire-based official has overseen a Swans match following his promotion to Select Group 2 in the summer of 2021.
The most recent of those matches was against Bristol City in February 2025 when the Swans claimed a 1-0 win thanks to Josh Tymon’s goal.
Busby began his career as an assistant referee and served in the EFL for eight years before switching to the whistle and joining the National List of Referees in 2016.
On Saturday, he will be assisted by Graham Kane and Carl Fitch-Jackson. Jacon Miles will be the fourth official.
