Still a state secret in Hungary - there again the Federation haven't updated who is on the referee committee 20 months after Puhl Sándor's passing!

Who would be the last Welsh referee who achieved notable international success/ Or indeed Irish for that matter? I'd never really considered that until the above post.

Cheryl Foster for Wales, before her probably as far back as Clive the Book, not sure any of the others went to a WC or a Euro (as there were a lot less teams)

GPoll had an Irish AR at Euro?

Pleased for Rob Jones  he has had some unfair comments  at times but seems to have improved, now Mike Jones has disappeared from the scene he seems to be getting better appointments. Having seen Rob progress through the ranks i believe he will prove a lot of people wrong and will do well as a FIFA Official Lets hope Gabriel does well and we see her on the women's FIFA list in years to come.

Keith Cooper was highly respected domestically and I'm sure was FIFA. How much international recognition he received is, however, something I don't know.

Keith Burge also had a good international career, a regular in the champions league, UEFA cup etc. in terms of Ireland Leslie Irvine was a regular, although he was Northern Irish, as was Alan Snoddy.

Damien McGraith (Republic of Ireland) went to Euro 2016 as one of Willie Collum's ARs

Eddie Foley of Cork was at Euro 2000

Alan Snoddy was the last Northern Irish referee at a major tournament:

At the 1986 World Cup Snoddy was appointed to referee the game between Morocco and Portugal in Guadalajara which ended 3–1 to Morocco. In the 1990 World Cup Snoddy refereed the game between Colombia and West Germany which ended 1–1 at the San Siro in Milan.

The one glaring omission to major tournaments was Alan Kelly - one of the best referees to come out of the Republic of Ireland - his move to the USA put paid to being selected for tournaments after 2013. The only FIFA tournament he went to was as Video Assistant Referee for the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Poland - so no on-field games.

I would suggest Simon Lee Evans - was a Cat 1 (in the old system with 4 Categories). He is the current Referees Manager. I believe he held an AR Badge as well as acting on the U17 Euros Final at a point.

Then of course Ceri Richards & Roger Gifford.

Only change in Hungary is the addition of Bizderi Nikolett replacing Török Katalin. No idea on categories yet

Do we know who will fill the place vacated by Bobby Madden? A year ago Craig Napier seemed to be next in line, but recently David Dickinson seems to be coming up on the rails.

David Dickinson confirmed

I was going to ask about if Gillett would be England or Australia listed (given Faghani is still Iran listed despite being Australian based) - but I guess because he's refereeing in a different confederation, he has to be England listed.

I imagine there are only a very small number on the entire FIFA list who represent a country different to their nationality.

Faghani has now transferred to Australia for FIFA.

Gillett has now committed, what in Australia is almost treason, Jarred now represents England.
Alireza now represents Australia. Will be interesting at the next WC with him and Beath will AFC allow them both to be picked.
