Meet the officials | Southampton

Tony Harrington will be the man in the middle when Swansea City head to St Mary’s to take on Southampton in the third round of the Emirates FA Cup.

The Cleveland official has taken charge of the Swans on nine previous occasions, with the most recent of those being a 3-2 defeat against Reading at the Swansea.com Stadium during the 2021-22 campaign.

He had also been due to officiate the Championship play-off semi-final first leg at Barnsley in May 2021, but had to withdraw as Geoff Eltringham took the whistle.

Harrington was promoted to Select Group 1 that summer and has gone on to referee regularly in the Premier League over the last couple of seasons.

On Sunday, Harrington will be assisted by Marc Perry and Sian Massey-Ellis, while Gavin Ward will be the fourth official.
