Football officials (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

referees

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">football officials</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(referee is a kind of football official)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for referees that I've seen before include "Umpires" , "Arbiters, often in sport" , "Officials ensuring fair play" , "Sports officials" , "Arbiters as in soccer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
