Female linesman defies sexist comments

Amplify’d from uk.eurosport.yahoo.com

Female assistant referee Sian Massey made a mockery of Richard Keys and Andy Gray with a flawless performance in Wolves' game against Liverpool.

The Sky presenters were recorded making insulting off-air remarks before the game.

“Somebody better get down there and explain offside to her,” Keys said on a leaked tape.

Gray replied: “Can you believe that? A female linesman. Women don’t know the offside rule.”

The pair have been suspended for Sky's broadcast of the Monday night match between Bolton and Chelsea, and their comments were made to look ridiculous by Massey.
