Howard Webb

Madley is my new hate figure. At best he is incompetent, at worst he has an agenda.

west ham at home this season was shocking by both city in the way we played and the ref (Madley) he give everything to west ham and only adding 4 mins injury time when 5 subs was used in the second half and west ham going down everytime wasting time even 1 of the west ham players had enough and pulled up a west ham player for wasting time I went home and watch the replays and if he added 10 mins it would have not been enough but to only play 4 min shocking
 
I think Madeley is desperate like all young refs who want to get onto Uefa/Fifa list and have a World Cup in their sights - they are gonna referee to the book. Not the book that contains the Laws of the Game, but the unwritten book that states that if you want to get on in refereeing you have to do it this way!

The sooner we get video reffin, and/or the system used in American football where the ref comes on and tells the crowd what went on and what is happening! We allow referees to get away with too much with no explanation one way or the other. I'd like to know why the ref didn't give one pen and a game later gives a pen for the same offence, and so on!
 
The same day we effectively lost the title in the 12/13 season to baconface the following happened:

-Vidic pulled a player down to the ground in the penalty area during a corner. Stonewall penalty, even MOTD rags thought so. No penalty given.
-We were playing Everton, and Fellaini stuck his arm almost straight above his head. The ball hit his arm 3 yards inside the box, and a dead man could have seen it was a penalty. No penalty given.

That match was basically acknowledged as the day we lost the title back to them.

That season, Fergiescum's last, United had ZERO penalties against them, ZERO red cards (Until they played Chelsea, already had the title locked up, and it was in stoppage time when the game was already lost... literally zero affect on the match and the season... actually their last was the 6-1 Derby, so almost two entire seasons), and the joint highest penalties in favor of them. The last 7 league goals for Van Rapist were from ignored offsides. That volley he took from over his shoulder that the media masturbated to for months? Offside. Of course each of his last seven goals stood anyways. Also that season: Chelsea away, Torres wrongly sent off for diving after having a rag defender's studs kicked into his shin. Arsenal away, two Arsenal players sent off to rescue the match for United. Two Liverpool players sent off at Anfield. Foul on Clichy not given at the Etihad, ensuing possession leads to United free kick that won the rags the match.

Switch to European football, in which the refs aren't funded by TV deals largely down to foreign gloryhunters and cockneys... the rags can't even make it past the quarter finals, with their seeded position, without getting a red card. Of course, not having a clue how to defend when down to 10 men (since it hadn't happened in so long) they immediately were dumped out.

If that is just a coincidence for Fergiscum's final season, then it's time to start playing the lottery. You'd have to be a fool to think they just got lucky or were perfectly disciplined. Hell, I recorded 3 two-footed lunges (made Kompany's 3rd round FA cup red card look tame, which it was) that only resulted in one yellow card during the Derby at the swamp that season. But there's no agenda, right?

So yet again we find that Webb is somehow managing to be an even worse ref with video evidence than he was without it. What a fucking tosser.
 
Even if we got video tech the problem will still be bent officials who interpret the foul.

I've always supported video replays on key decisions until Webb at Leicester. Pointless when the person controlling the TV that never lies, lies.
