Graham Barber

Graham P. Barber (born 5 June 1958) is an English former football referee. He was based in Tring in Hertfordshire during his career, but now lives in Spain.

In 1998, after progressing through to the FA Premier League List of referees via the Football League List, he was appointed to the FIFA International List.

He took charge of his first major appointment, the Charity Shield match between Arsenal and Manchester United at Wembley on 1 August 1999. The 'Gunners' were victorious by 2-1, thanks to second-half Kanu and Parlour goals, in reply to David Beckham's strike in the 36th minute.

Seventeen days later, on 18 August 1999, he was man-in-the-middle for his first international game, the friendly match between Greece and El Salvador in Kavala, when Greece triumphed by 3 goals to 1.

His first major international engagement was the World Cup qualifying match on 3 September 2000, involving Hungary and Italy in Budapest, and this was drawn 2-2.
