Meet the officials | Sunderland

31st October
First team
Robert Madley - referee

Robert Madley will be the man in charge when Swansea City host Sunderland at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday (3pm kick-off).

This will be the second time the west Yorkshire official – who has taken charge of more than 90 Premier League games – has overseen a Swans match this term.

He was in the middle for a 1-1 draw with Coventry  City at home in August. He handed out three yellow cards that day with Matt Grimes and Joe Allen booked for the Swans.

So far this season, he has taken charge of eight league games, six in the Championship, one in League One, and one in the Premier League. He was also in charge of the all-Premier League Carabao Cup tie between Brentford and Bournemouth.

In total this season, he has handed out 45 yellow cards and two reds.

On Saturday, Madley will be assisted by Craig Taylor and Robert Merchant. Ben Atkinson will be the fourth official.
