Looking to potentially start reading any referee related books. Autobiographies or just general books.

anyone have any recommendations?

No points for whoever comments first with the LOTG book.

Howard Webb’s autobiography is good.

Currently reading and enjoying ‘Blowing the Whistle: the Psychology of Football Refereeing’ and that’s really good. Although that might just be because I studied psychology. Not sure how enjoyable it’d be if I didn’t
 
The best refereeing book I have read is The Art of Refereeing, which was first published as For the Good of the Game. By Evans and Bellion. I don't know if it is back in print--you might have to find a used copy.

Webb's biograpy is in interesting.

Edit: Realized i combined the two titles, so fixed it.

I loved Howard Webb's of which was an excellent book to read. I've also Red Jeff Winter's who also doesn't hold back and gives a good insight into the world of football refereeing.
