What we have seen recently with Howard Webb, is an example of why video reffing worries me.
If it's done by a computer, like the goal line decisions, I'm all for it. If it's involving people looking at a replay & making a decision, then it's wankers like Howard Webb who are likely to be the arbiters of those decisions. These are the same people who have been allowing Wayne Rooney to swear in their faces for 20 years unchallenged whilst instantly sending off some random Frenchman for the same offence. The people who change the rules in order to prosecute City players on video evidence. The people who allow Fellaini to commit red card offences in almost every game he plays. The same ilk who have been giving Utd & Liverpool borderline or dodgy last minute pens for the past 50 years or so, whilst ignoring others.
Howard Web has shown us how he can interpret two similarly debatable incidents, one of which involves a serial diver, one a bloke who doesn't dive, & award the penalty to the serial diver, but ignore the other claim ,because the bloke who doesn't dive, had his hands in the air. An easier way to describe his decision would be that only one of them wears a red shirt.
Do we really want people like him, & Poll, making video decisions during games ?
