Graham Scott (referee)
Graham Scott (born 1968) is an English-born referee who officiates in the Barclays Premier League. Scott was educated at Abingdon School and joined the National List of referees in 2008 officiating many important games, including Crawley Town's upset of Bolton in the 2012–13 Football League Cup. In 2015, he was promoted to the Select Group of Referees, who officiate the matches in the Barclays Premier League, replacing longtime referee Chris Foy.
On 13 January 2016, Scott refereed a controversial match between Swansea City and Sunderland, in which he awarded a penalty to Swansea and sent off a Swansea player – both considered incorrect decisions by pundits.[1] His decisions were criticized in the media[2] and the red card was withdrawn after the club appealed.[3]
