well done him.

To be fair to Graham Poll - that game was pretty much un referee able. I still don't understand to this day why the 4th official didn't have a word on the ear piece.

I can't stand Alan Green - he never seems happy.

Aye - good news.

Best commentator on any media in this country 🙂

I don't see why it's needed, win some, lose some. It'll just slow the game down.

Probably because football is a multi billion dollar industry.

As usual, you're trying too hard. Perhaps he tells it too straight for you?

First (and most importantly) congratualtions to Howard Webb. If you'e reading this, Howard, I'm chuffed for you.

Second - on the subject of that twit Alan Green - it pains me to quote the daily mail but I do think this just about sums it up... [i]"Almost every time this Sun King of the airwaves takes the microphone, he will place himself between the listener and the game."[/i]

Thankfully, the Daily Fail, yet again, proves the point. Fantastic commentator. Nobody can do it as well as he can. Maybe Conor McNamara...in a few years.
