Sky Sports have apologised to Millwall for the controversial coverage of their Championship clash against Queens Park Rangers earlier this month.
Sportsmail has led the way with the dispute, which led to Millwall seeking to block Sky from televising their home clash against Watford on December 29 due to concerns about the coverage of their home game versus QPR, which centred around the club’s previous game against Derby at the Den, where supporters booed the now customary anti-racism gesture of taking the knee before kick off.
Sky covered the story extensively, but Millwall had a number of gripes with the network’s coverage - including a story on the broadcaster's website prior to the game against QPR that suggested Lions players would still take a knee - despite a joint statement from both clubs that they would not perform the gesture but hold up an anti-discrimination banner.
