Meet the officials | Huddersfield Town

Stephen Martin will be the man in the middle for Swansea City’s Championship fixture against Huddersfield Town on Saturday (3pm).

Staffordshire-born Martin has officiating in his blood with his father and grandfather blowing the whistle in the Football League. He first took up refereeing in 2002 and had made it to step five of the football pyramid within six years.

He joined the National List of Referees ahead of the 2012-13 season and took charge of his first Championship match in January of that campaign. In 2015, he was included in the list of Select Group 2 officials.

This will be the 15th time he has taken charge of a Swans games. 12 of the previous contests were league matches and the most recent of those was the win at Blackburn earlier this season.

So far this season Martin has taken charge of nine EFL league and cup games, handing out 55 yellow cards and one red.

On Saturday, he will be assisted by Blake Antrobus and George Byrne. Keith Stroud will be the fourth official.
