Millwall Club contended-and it was accepted-that the referee was interfered with by members of the public after he had left the Den and gone some 300 yarda towards the Underground Station. When asked when they thought the onus upon them ceased, the Millwali representative said he. thought when the official left the ground. He was told by the FA that the responsibility remains until the referee reaches his home.
