Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish admits he would have a go at any officials if they got a crucial decision wrong - male or female. The Scottish tactician became an unwitting part of the sexism scandal which saw Sky Sports presenters Andy Gray and Richard Keys lose their jobs.
The pair predicted Dalglish would "go potty" if assistant referee Sian Massey made a bad call in last weekend's game against Wolves.
In his Mail on Sunday column, Dalglish said: "Of course, I would have done, just as I would have done if a male linesman had made a mistake.
"It wouldn't have been based on gender at all.
"I have never judged anyone on anything other than their ability to do the job, Colour creed and gender do not come into it."
He added: "If Sian knows the laws, why shouldn't she be involved in the game?
"When Sammy Lee brought the team-sheets in last weekend at Wolves, he didn't even mention that one of the assistant referees was a woman.
"That's a reflection of how unimportant it is."
