"It is not an intentional foul because Mario doesn't want to hurt anyone, he didn't see Parker, that's all." (Balotelli's scumbag agent) I'm sorry, but after reading that I cannot take seriously anything this clown says.
It's nice to see that the FA have taken a rather dim view of Webb's poor officiating and dropped him from the roster for the next round of games. Oh, hang on, that hasn't happened at all and they've actually given him tonight's Carling Cup semi-final. Foy was given Fulham v Bolton for the weekend following his horror show at the Britannia. If a ref offends Ferguson by giving correct decisions against Utd, then they're often sent off to Siberia for a few weeks. They **** up in one of our games and they're given important cup ties. How does that work?
Kevan Radcliffe the old Everton captain said on 5 live tonight, any player will tell you that the stamping was deliberate.
He's got two assistants and a fourth official, at least. They can't drop him because he's the English representative at the Euros. As I type, he has a go at a player for diving, yet he doesn't book him.
"It's worrying that Howard Webb is so close to that and still doesn't see it as a freekick" - Martin Keown Edit: To avoid confusion, this quote is from the game tonight where Zaha was fouled by a push from the defender with no attempt to tackle.
I keep getting you and NSIS mixed up, for some reason. The common theme in these mistakes seems to be you, so it's obviously your fault. Can't argue with that kind of logic, eh?
To be fair to Webb, the player that made the tackle was called Gerrard, so his instincts as a Premier League referee must've kicked in.
No, I suppose I can't argue with the logic of confusing someone who lives in Spain, with someone who lives in England! ...why aren't you on the jury!
