Howard Webb

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Watching the Chelsea Liverpool game and have to say, how the he'll did this man become supposedly the best referee. He really is shite

He's been very pro- Chelsea in this game.

He's losing it a bit...

Oscar should have been sent off too.

Bottle job ref.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

How did he miss that Etoo chop on Suarez?

He's shocking.

Added to which Chelsea are back to their horrible.cheating snide best, a reflection on their **** of a manager

Two stonewall Suarez penalties and the odd thing is, Webb was literally only a yard or two away from both of them. He's going to feel very foolish when he sees the replay.

 

[Zukey Seagull]

The eto one on Suarez was unbelievable.

Who is the best English referee then? Clattenburg, Dean, Dowd, Atkinson and Marriner tend to be the others that get the big games and none of them are without their faults either. The standard of refereeing in general isn't great, some of the refs in the Champions League are very inconsistent in their decision making. Although the further down the pyramid you go, the officiating is worse. I've seen a few Ryman League matches this season and the officiating down there is really bad, often resulting in refs losing control of the match.

I'd say Webb has got to referee big matches because he handles the players well. Apart from the 2010 World Cup final, there are few matches he has officiated that have gone out of control with flashpoints and I think most refs would've found that final difficult to officiate because of Holland's X-rated tactics that night.

So we all agree then? Haha unbelievable thread!

Liverpool cheated out of a result.

Bring back David Elleray

 

[Gary Gurr]

The referee on Boxing Day, Mick Russell, must have been one of the worst I have see. He was way behind play throughout the game and his 'assistants' weren't much better.

 

[Soulman]

Webb got MOTM for Chelski.

How did he miss that Etoo chop on Suarez?

The problem is Suarez dives about so much you cannot be certain it's not another one...in fact that applies to every player these days.

Looks like Webb has left Man U and signed for Chelsea, Liverpool been robbed now in 2 matches and gone from top to 5th because of it.

Although Raheem Sterling missing an absolute sitter in the 2nd half against Man City that Harry Redknapp's wife could have scored with her eyes closed had something to do with it as well.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

All refs are clowns.
Week after week of poor refereeing.
The Italian guy was ok and the filly assistant that Keys wanted to smash seems very good.
Worst ref ever, Graham Poll, but still Talksport ask for his opinions.
Apart from that all no hopers

 

[lawros left foot]

I think Howard Webb hates scousers, must have lost a lot of hub caps up there or something

How did he miss that Etoo chop on Suarez?

That's the desperate thing, he didn't "miss it". He looked directly at the incident and chose to completely ignore it. Bizarre officiating if you ask me.

Oh well, never mind
