Man in the Middle – Robert Madley

Last Updated on April 3, 2018.    Published on March 1, 2016 by Swans Info.   

Each week we take a close look at the referee assigned to the Swans game and look at their previous record when officiating our beloved Swansea City.

Robert Madley

This week’s spotlight for our man in the middle falls on Robert ‘Bobby’ Madley, who was appointed the referee for the Manchester United v Swans Premier League game on Saturday, 31 March 2018.

Name: Robert Madley
DOB: 6 October 1985
Birthplace: Wakefield, Yorkshire.
Interesting Fact: Madley is probably one of the most disliked referees by Swansea City fans thanks to several bewildering decisions that have cost the Swans dearly over recent years.

Cast your mind back to November 2013 when he gave a highly contentious last-gasp penalty to Stoke City, which earned them an unlikely 3-3 draw, and earlier this season when he failed to send off Stoke City goalkeeper Jack Butland for a studs-up challenge on Andre Ayew. Yep he’s up there with Mike Dean in the popularity stakes alright!

Here are the all important facts and figures for each game that he has been a referee for a Swansea City game:
