Iain Williamson suffered a knee whilst injury playing for Walton & Hersham back in 1991 at the age of fifteen and wanted to stay in the game so it was suggested that he gave refereeing a go. He progressed to the National List of Assistant Referees in 1999 and reached the Referees’ List in 2002.
His League debut was on 28 December 2002 with a 2-0 win for Oxford at Rushden. His last match was the 2-2 draw between Bolton and Birmingham on 3 May 2014
His last Rotherham match was a 2-0 win at Southend on 10 February 2012.
