Good evening all.
                          I don't normally post on this section of the board, but someone I know through Social Media has sent me a message and this intrigues me,
 I went to a primary school in County Durham from 1964 to 1970 and our headmaster was a Mr Green.
   This person says that Mr G D Green was at one time a Football League referee. I know Mr Green lived in a village called Boldon which is a few miles north of Sunderland and if indeed this is true Mr Green would have refereed in the fifties possibly into the sixties.
 Apparently Mr Green either reffed or lined Brian Clough's testimonial game at Sunderland back in 1967/68.


 I went back to my old school as a volunteer in 1975 and 1976 helping a particular teacher of mine and Mr Green was still headmaster then however that would be just before his retirement from teaching.
 If anyone can help me with this I would be grateful.
  Stay safe and keep very well
