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.
This week’s spotlight for our man in the middle falls on James Adcock, whom was appointed the referee for the Peterborough United v Swans English Football League Cup 2nd Round game on Tuesday, 23rd August 2016.

Interesting Fact: Adcock is a relative newcomer to the football league having only graduated to the national list in the 2011/12 season.
