The Coventry teacher at the centre of the Sky Sports sexism row has been pulled out of refereeing her scheduled non league game on Saturday.



Sian Massey, 25, from Tile Hill Lane, Tile Hill, was withdrawn from the clash between Corby Town and Eastwood Town at Rockingham Triangle.

It is the second game in a row the PE teacher has been pulled out after the row sparked by comments made by presenters Richard Keys and Andy Gray.

Coventry-born Keys resigned and Gray was sacked after being recorded ridiculing Massey's ability to understand the offside law before Liverpool's recent 3-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

But it turned out highly-rated Massey got a crucial offside call right in the build-up to Liverpool's opening goal.

A number of further clips of the pair making sexist remarks have since been leaked.

The Football League has reportedly told the Blue Square Bet North division the Foxford Secondary School teacher is unavailable.
