    <rose><rose> The referee who got Andy Gray the sack has been promoted.
    She will now officiate in high profile games.
    The move means that the 25-year-old from Coventry will now run the line at more high profile games in the Premier League and the FA Cup on a regular basis.

    Massey unwittingly found herself embroiled in a huge scandal last year which eventually saw Sky Sports pundit Andy Gray and presenter Richard Keys leave the company.

    Microphones picked up comments made by Keys and co-presenter Gray in what they thought was an off-air conversation before a match between Wolves and Liverpool where Massey was acting as a lineswoman.

    In the now infamous recording Keys and Gray appeared to agree that female officials "don't know the offside rule", with Keys adding: "I can guarantee you there'll be a big one today. (Liverpool manager) Kenny (Dalglish) will go potty."

    After further allegations emerged Gray was sacked from his position while Keys resigned. The pair now host a daily radio show on TalkSPORT.

    To be fair, I think she got the decision right.

    Good luck to her.
