    Offside or onside, he'll miss anyway.

    I have just watched it and frankly Howard Webb is a disgrace. Tried to bluster around why the ref saying repeatedly "played the ball" isn't necessarily a clear and obvious error and ends up falling back on the "everyone is human and humans make mistakes" argument.

    What a crock of shit it is.

    A "tussle". Glad that got cleared up.

    I assume Michael Owen hit him with a barrage of follow up questions? The first one being, “Given that what the VAR said was demonstrably untrue, what action are you taking?”

    Webb chose his words very carefully "we would have preferred he sent him to review". Not he should have.

    Seemed to me like the words of someone who has been fully briefed by a legal team not to admit any kind of culpability.

    Would have been pretty amazing if he'd said "we had been accused of potential bias, and the incorrect decision was consistent with that accusation"

    Not expecting that but saying " we would have preferred" rather than " he should have" seems unusual language to me.

    Just cautious wording. I wish they'd hang these refs out to dry though.

    Michael Owen - football’s answer to Paxman…

    Webb wasn’t willing to drop his mates in it even though he more or less admitted the 3rd was a bit of a howler. Bit embarrassing really.

    Not sorry about it but Clattenberg will surely leave shortly. He can’t stick around at a club that’s accusing referees of cheating,

    Easiest prediction in history.

    I bet there is a deal - sack Clatts and we will give you 2 points back
