He reffed us 5 times, (off the top of my head), Chelsea the same and Arsenal 4. That, to me, says he gets games where the top teams are involved, possibly because he's the best ref in the league?Prestwich_Blue said:Webb is not anti-City but he does seem to help the rags a lot. Last season he reffed them 6 times, more than any other ref reffed a single team. 5 of those were away from home, when they would be likely to need more help.Pigeonho said:Really? How so? Webb is fantastic when he refs us.de niro said:The only thing about all this is a cheat is removed from the game. Just got to sort Webb and foy out now.
It does mean that Webb will now get the derby so a first defeat for us I'm afraid.
Pigeonho said:I have no idea, I thought that was Atkinson but it's by the by anyway. He, (Webb), didn't send Balotelli off for a stamp, (I don't care about the aftermath), and that player went on to convert a last minute penalty - awarded by Webb.bobmcfc said:Pigeonho said:Really?

Didn't be send vinny off in the carling cup game v utd last season ?
There is no reason why we will lose our first game if Webb runs the derby, however my paranoid friend De Niro already has his excuse posted if we win that game so it's a non-argument really.

The only refs I have ever really thought were bent are Walton ( Everton lover ) and clattenberg ( arse licking fame hunter ) you Can never say categorically that they are honest because we have seen in Italy what can happen.

You can say they make mistakes though, which any person in any walk of life will do in their career. I'm sure that little youngster Atwell cringes when the replay of the goal that never was is played on tele, and has ensured he will never make that mistake again. People make mistakes and until someone uncovers the biggest case of fraud in football history - the downfall of the worlds most richest league - mistakes are what I will put decisions down to.bobmcfc said:Pigeonho said:I have no idea, I thought that was Atkinson but it's by the by anyway.

Are us and Chelsea his paymasters too then? We must be if we got him 5 times last season.Blue Mooner said:Pigeonho said:He reffed us 5 times, (off the top of my head), Chelsea the same and Arsenal 4.

Possibly because he is the most adept at fulfilling the wishes of his paymasters more likely.
