    No he wont. They only do that for violent misconduct that was missed by the referee

  4. If the referee makes the decision not to give the pen then the FA can't do a thing.

    This is probably the reason why Rooney didn't get banned for elbowing that player in the face, and dare i say why Barton wasn't suspended for picking up Gervinho.

    I have never liked Howard Webb, and probably never will. Imagine if we had lost?

    Can anyone name a referee that is liked? Even if not liked is a decent referee??

    I can't.

    Years back there were good referees. Last good one was the bald Italian. Not anymore as not allowed to use discretion and commonsense.

    So, who's fault is it really, the referees for allowing the authorities to tie their hands or the authorities for tying their hands?

    Reckon he uses the same opticians as Arsene for his contact lenses?
    Should've gone to etc etc!

    Does anyone know the actual offence Barton got the yellow for yet?
    Dissent? Wouldn't be the first (or last time) he get's something for
    being too lippy... lol

    Of course - I recall now a bit of a feisty exchange between practically the whole of the
    two teams before a free kick - of course Barton was down Webb's throat which wouldn't
    have helped but just wondered what the card was actually for.

    Meh, Refs can only see what they can see. Do people really think they set out not to call the right decisions? Don't get me wrong, I was furious that we didn't get the penalty- however it just shows how much the game is crying out for video technology.

    Get a video official in, give each team 3 'challenges' per half- unless the ref feels the need to double check- would hardly slow the game down either, the average person can make a decision based on seeing the incident replayed once over. Simples!

    Usually within seconds everyone here, on the Sky panel etc has a firm
    view and opinion on the matter of contention on the pitch.

    A 'online' comms video ref is used in other very fast paced sports
    - just not in football! Yet! Considering the high stakes and money that
    are involved and the skew a game can take with a sending off or
    penalty, it must make sense to have an impartial video official?

    Webb conferred with his assistant, so why can't his assistant be a tv monitor?

    This.

    TBF Webb is a decent ref, he just missed a crucial incident. The way the players reacted suggested it was definitely a pen, but after the way Barton and Taylor behaved last week he was never going to take that into consideration; you live by the sword, you die by the sword.

    Still, justice was done. :)

    They both bottled it, any other ground in the country we get a penalty and Larsson would have been sent off.

    I can see why most people hate refs but it must be tough for them; having to control a bunch of overpaid prima donnas, being constantly harassed and then getting serious abuse (see this thread) when they get a decision wrong.
