In loving memory of Robert Warman who sadly passed away on 3rd November 2018

Robert (Bob) Warman was born on the 15/8/38 in London. He met and married Sheila Ann Warman 55 years ago and at that time moved to Swindon, subsequently they had 2 children Keith and Graham. Bob had many interests in life and was actively involved with the scouting association for many years, and for some 40 years was closely involved with the Swindon & District Football Association firstly, as a referee, and upon hanging up his boots 10 years ago then took on the task of referees secretary.
Bob had 3 very much loved grandchildren Adam, Becky and Libby

A sad day for football in Swindon, it has lost a great man.
Bob refereed so many of the matches I played in, we'd always have a laugh and a joke regardless of the result.
He was a real gentleman.

Refereeing in Swindon is a poorer place with Bob's passing. He was committed to supporting young referees and grassroots football. I have had the pleasure of working with him over the last 11 year's and I know that refereeing in Swindon & Wiltshire would be in a better and stronger position if their were more Bob Warman's involved.

Bob - A gentleman who alwasy had time and a cheerful ear. You supported and inspired so many others around grassroots football, You were my predecessor (in the S&D League), my mentor, but above all a friend. Thank-you for all you gave to me and so many.
