Super League referee Steve Ganson will not face any further action following his arrest earlier this year.



The 40-year-old St Helens official was withdrawn from taking charge of the Challenge Cup semi-final between Catalans and Warrington on August 8 after being arrested following an incident outside a hotel.



He did not referee for the rest of the season, but the Crown Prosecution Service have today confirmed that he will not face any further action, while the Rugby Football League say he will resume refereeing next season.

Absolutely disgraceful

Innocent until proven guilty mate.



On the positives, he isnt a bad ref and we dont have any good ones!

I don't think we can really say that. It's perfectly possible to get caught up in a ruck when you're not the instigator or the main offender. It happens often enough on the RL field.

Being proven guilty and actually being guilty are 2 different things, look at OJ simpson!! I am one of a few people that KNOW he was guilty



He wasn't the instigator, he reacted badly to some goading but what he did was disgraceful and deserves punishment who ever you are.

Its not the first time time he's done it as well

We'll have to take your word for that, but clearly the court didn't.

Locked in three, two, one.....

After seeing those bloody Ozzie refs our refs are great !

I'd be careful with those kind of accusations if I were you, you could end up in court yourself.



Unless you were there and saw it with your own eyes, you have no idea what happened.

I hope he gets the Good Friday derby next year.

one thing gason is not,he is not a good ref,for one thing his attitude against certain tems and players if studied closely is an utter disgrace.just look at the arrogant attitude on his face in some of the wigan matches,and off the field i am led to believe he is just the same.
