On a weekend when an assistant referee was hammered for a mistake, let's hear it for the stunningly good call made by that promising young woman assistant Sian Massey in the Swansea-Man City game on Sunday.
With a few minutes left and Man City trailing 1-0, Micah Richards rose in the penalty area and headed in what City thought was a crucial equaliser.
But Massey had spotted Richard was a few inches ahead of play and in an offside position and flagged for the offside.
She has had a fascinating last 12 months but is flying the flag proudly for women match officials. And what's really pleasant is that she actually looks as though she's enjoying herself.
Keep it up Sian.
