Anthony Buttimer (born 13 July 1965) is an Irish FIFA-level[1][2] soccer referee from Cork. A League of Ireland official, he took charge of the 2008 FAI Cup Final in the RDS, Dublin.
Career
Buttimer regularly referees matches in the League of Ireland.[3][4] In the past he has been dispatched to referee local derbies including the Connacht Derby contested between Sligo Rovers and Galway United in August 2007.[5] He was also deployed in the 2013 FAI Cup Semi Final and Louth Derby between Dundalk and Drogheda.[6]
In September 2007, Buttimer took issue with the colour of the goalkeeper's jerseys in a game between Dundalk and Shelbourne. It was eventually agreed that the Dundalk goalkeeper would wear a t-shirt with a white strip of tape on the back whilst the Shelbourne goalkeeper would wear a training top for the match.[7] A similar incident occurred in March 2008, when he said that the kit worn by Sligo Rovers was too similar to the kit worn by St Patrick's Athletic.[8]
Buttimer took charge of the 2008-09 UEFA Cup qualifier first round second leg match between KS Vllaznia Shkodër and FC Koper at the Loro-Boriçi Stadium in Shkodër, Albania. The match finished 0 – 0, with him issuing three yellow cards.[9]
On 23 November, Buttimer took charge of the 2008 FAI Cup Final, in which Bohemians beat Derry City[10] This was the first FAI Cup Final to feature a penalty shoot-out.[11]
