Frank Lampard issues apology after sparking post-match melee with sarcastic gesture to Southampton fans calling him a 's*** Steven Gerrard'

Frank Lampard has apologised after sparking a huge post-match melee at the end of his Coventry side's draw at Southampton.

The Chelsea legend was on the receiving end of taunts by a raucous home crowd inside St Mary's, who labelled him a 's*** Steven Gerrard' at full time.

Lampard has the Sky Blues six points clear at the top of the Championship heading into Christmas and they held on for a 1-1 draw on Saturday afternoon despite going down to 10 men early in the second half.
