About Simon Hooper

Simon Hooper is a referee that officiates mainly English football and other Premier League matches.

The British-born is a member of the Select Group, a panel of British football referees and assistant referees.

Members of the group are usually selected by Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL).

Hooper currently resides in Wiltshire.

On August 2023, Hooper served as referee for a Premier League match where Manchester United played against the Wolves.

However, Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana had collided with Wolves forward Sasa Kalajdzic in the penalty area, and Hooper who was supposed to give a penalty to the Wolves, did not do likewise.

There had been protests coming from the Wolves’ supporters, but Hooper had waved it away.

Manchester United had defeated the Wolves 1-0 at Old Trafford but fans believe that the result could have been different if they had been given a penalty.

As a result, Hooper and two VAR officials, Michael Sailsbury and Richard West, were subsequently removed from officiating for the remaining Premier League matches.

However, the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) chief Howard Webb, apologized to the Wolves for the error.
