SATURDAY SOCCER SPOT

HAS THE REFEREE ANY IMPLIED RESPONSIBILITY TO SOCCER SPECTATORS?

Asks I. M. MacTAVISH

Arising out of the International Cup final at the Club Stadium on Wednesday evening one might well be tempted to ask if a soccer referee, who is taking part in what is after all a form of entertainment, has in addition to his official duties an implied responsibility to the public.

I realise only too well that there are those who will jump in and say that the referee's only job is to see that the game is played in accordance with the appro priate rules, and just as definitely I must comment that when admission tickets are Mold, there is sold with them an implication of public entertainment,
