Howard Webb being put through it tonight, not doing himself any favours IMO.

I thought he held his own to be honest and gave some reasonable answers. Considering he now works in a higher role amongst referees he's not going to slate his fellow officials is he? He's there to backup his fellow referees and try and air their opinions and such

Webb is such an irritating prick. He reminded me of Tony fucking Blair with his faux assertive fucking hand gestures, which he probably got from some "how to win friends and influence people" manual, and his refusal to give a straight answer about anything, constantly hedging every answer. He's got the charisma of a fucking Dalek.

To be fair to Webb, he's never carpet bombed Iraq for no other reason than money and power. As far as I know.

To be fair to Tony Blair, he never gave this as a penalty because Man Utd were losing and needed a way back into the game.

I was surprised at how much waffling he did in the clip posted above. Never even came close to answering the question. Two minutes talking without saying anything.

Darren Bent is being linked with a loan move to Brighton. I find it staggering what has become of a lot of our squad members from that season.

I found myself agreeing with him over Neville and Carragher on basically everything.

He answered most thrown at him really well...but the point those two keep missing is that in real time its very difficult especially when there are several things needing monitored at once.

His argument on Jack Wheelchair though was poor, ref looking right at the whole incident and not even a booking?! They were not going to take him too seriously after that!

He's a copper mate, what do you expect?!
