Robert Adam Madden (born 25 October 1978) is a Scottish former football referee.[1][2]
Madden became a FIFA referee in 2010.[3] He officiated in 2014 World Cup qualifiers, beginning with the match between Germany and the Faroe Islands.[4] He left the FIFA list in 2022, as he moved from Scotland to England and officiated in EFL League One and EFL League Two games during the 2022–23 season.[5][6]
Madden retired in 2023, a year ahead of his planned retirement date.[7][8] After announcing his retirement Madden said that he "didn't enjoy it [English football] as much as I thought I would've", and cited frustration at how a case where a club official had allegedly made anti-Scottish remarks to him had been handled.[7]
