Barrott to referee Swans trip to West Brom

The Swans first away trip of the 2023-204 Championship season at West Bromwich Albion on Saturday will be officiated by Yorkshire referee Sam Barrott.

Referee Barrott will be assisted by Jonathan Hunt and Mark Dwyer, with Simon Mather the 4th Official for the game at the Hawthorns at 3pm .

This will be only the second time that Barrott has taken charge of a Swansea City game, the first being the Swans 3-0 Carabao Cup win at Reading in August 2021.

The Yorkshire official was the man in the middle for the Sunderland v Ipswich Town game on the opening round of Championship fixtures last weekend, when he handed out 4 yellow cards and showed a red card to Sunderland’s Trai Hume in the Tractor Boys 2-1 win at the Stadium of Light.
