Michael Russell (born 20 April 1965) is a Scottish amateur football referee who officiates in all four leagues of the Football League having made his debut as a referee in 2001. [1] [2] He represents Hertfordshire FA. [3]

On 29 December 2012, he gave two yellow cards to Sheffield Wednesday's Jérémy Hélan, which is supposed to result in a sending off. [4] It was later reported that Russell had inadvertently noted the first yellow card as being for Michail Antonio and hence did not realise that Hélan had had two yellow cards. [5] He was taken off duty for his next scheduled fixture as a result. [6]

In March 2015, he refereed the 2015 Football League Trophy Final at Wembley between Bristol City and Walsall. [7]
