Mike McCurry (referee)
Thomas Michael 'Mike' McCurry (born 4 June 1964) is an ex football referee from Scotland. He refereed the 2005 Scottish League Cup Final. McCurry considered his refereeing to be a hobby and lists his main occupation as "Minister of Christian Faith".[1]
McCurry was on the FIFA list of referees, but the Scottish Football Association (SFA) failed to nominate him to the list for the 2008–2009 football season.[2] He was previously on the list and he is referred to as one of the SFA's FIFA referees on his profile on the SFA website.[3]
On 18 May 2009, the SFA ended McCurry's refereeing career when they omitted him from the list of senior officials who will handle matches in Scotland during the 2009–2010 football season.[4]
He is a Baptist senior pastor at the Mosspark Baptist Church in Glasgow[5]. He is also a member of the Glasgow Magic Circle.
McCurry enjoys running and playing 5-a-side football in his spare time.
