Jeff Winter has been
a regular Premiership referee over the past seven seasons, but arrived in the
top flight after a number of years as one of the country's top linesmen. The
47-year-old spent six seasons as a Football League referee's assistant, before
graduating to gain full control of matches.
Previously a
financial services advisor by trade, Winter is yet to make FIFA's referee list
and needs some more high profile matches in order to make the step up. His
career highlights so far have been taking charge of a women's FA Cup final, and
being fourth official in the 1989 FA Cup Final between Merseyside rivals
Liverpool and Everton.
