Jeff Winter (born 18 April 1955)[1] is a former Premier League referee.
Refereeing career
[edit | edit source]Winter took charge of the 2004 FA Cup final between Manchester United and Millwall, his final game as a professional referee before retirement. Winter also appeared as an official on the BBC TV programme Superstars.
Since 2006, he has officiated in the annual series of national six-a-side tournaments called Masters Football, referees for which are FA endorsed. This competition features ex-professional footballers chosen by the PFA, and is televised on Sky Sports.[2]
Media work

Personal life
[edit | edit source]He supports Middlesbrough F.C., Stockton Town F.C., and Rangers F.C. It is rumoured he was due to officiate in the 2004 Football League Cup final only to be ruled out due to Middlesbrough appearing in the final against Bolton Wanderers so was instead there as a fan.
Writing
