Many thanks for all your hard work in helping me to compile this list, which I have wanted to do for some time. I have incorporated the amendments and updates on the database and will publish a revised list at the end of the season to take account of any further updates or amendments before then.
A couple of queries:
I always understood that Philip Don bowed out after refereeing Palace v Spurs in April 1995 but World Football shows that he refereed two further matches including Blackburn v Newcastle in May 1995 as his last:
Did Roger Gifford retire a season early? Upton's shows him on the list for 1995/6 but I can find no matches for him after the Arsenal v Wimbledon game in May 1995 and a Welsh FA website seems to confirm that he left the list in 1995. I had a feeling that his final game was as 4O at a Playoff Final at Wembley but cannot be sure of any details.
I don't recall attending any of the final games listed despite the presence of the Palace and Crewe. I wanted to see the Crewe v Coventry game in May 2005 which was Alan Kaye's last but failed to get a ticket for a game which Crewe had to win to stay in the Championship - and did, 2-1
Thanks again, AT
