Darren England, the Premier League referee from Barnsley, helping Manchester United’s Casemiro back to his feet during yesterday’s clash with Liverpool at Old Trafford.

A solid local lad with an impressive record — over 400 career games officiated, averaging around 3.9 yellow cards per match in the Premier League, and a FIFA-listed international referee since 2022. Proper Yorkshire grit in one of football’s toughest jobs.

What a moment in a huge

Time to Put Me First

In 2012 I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. After half my bladder was removed, I made a strong recovery — but in 2015 I began experiencing bowel problems directly related to the cancer and surgery.

Since then I’ve had four major operations, including an open Hartmann’s procedure and a stoma reversal in 2022.

Through it all I kept News Images running and continued working. Now, in 2026, my bowel problems have returned and I need to step back and focus on my health.

This summer I’ll begin a period of semi-retirement from shooting live sport and news. I’ll concentrate on running News Images from the office and will still shoot the occasional game, but I need to give my body proper rest and recovery.

This may last around a year — we’ll see how it goes — but one thing is certain: I can’t cope with shooting seven days a week anymore.

I’ve been training Alfie on the operational side, and at 19 he’s already doing a fantastic job — like a seasoned pro. My plan is to continue covering Man City and Man Utd at home, with some Newcastle (my second home) and Leeds games mixed in. I’ll be handing over Champions League and Wembley finals to the younger team.

I’ll also be running photography workshops, so please keep an eye out — there are some exciting sessions coming soon.

Thank you for your support.
