APOLOGY Looking back on last week: Apologies to those who may have been offended by the ‘Refs’ appointments’ article published last week. Any offence or upset certainly wasn’t intended and the work of both referees and league officials is held in high regard by this column.
Looking ahead to this week, we are hoping the weather holds off and that fixtures get the go-ahead. We’re also hoping for more excitement than what was on offer at Anfield on Monday night!
