Howard Webb !

Hmmm, who else! Did he miss the elbow because he was rimming Fergie in the dugout?

[Over the Bar]

at best a wrist or forearm, never an elbow.

3 game ban looming for van persie, bit of a blow for utd.

No action over RVPs thuggery, shocker -


"But referee Howard Webb has reviewed the incident and does not consider it to be an act of violent conduct, so no retrospective action can be taken by the FA."

Surely in these instances, the referee (already embarrassed by missing the initial incident) should not be the person to assess the incident.

That isn't even including the fact that it is Howard the Red.

Yes thats right....An absolutely constant stream of injustices which begins in August and ends in May and which conspire to place Utd inevitably in 1st, 2nd, or worst case scenario 3rd in the premier league each and every year...Or else you two Knob-heads are completely delusional who cry foul at every opportunity and concoct conspiracy theories to explain Utd's continued success....

Just because Alan Pardew has alerted the media (who's job it is to create headlines) to an incident doesn't mean that Van Persie should be on the receiving end of a ban...It was a nothing incident...get on with it....

I feel for the poor Liverpool fans, they seem to spend most of their forum time on this topic and not the one associated with the team they actually support.  I suppose when you are near the bottom of the table and the team is going worse than it was even last year then there isn't a lot to cheer about.

Found this somewhere . . . how true would it be??

1. Mike Dean, referee, when Blackburn beat Manchester United 3-2 and hasn't refereed a Manchester United game since.

2. Mike Dean - referee, in 2010, after Manchester United's defeat to Chelsea, was demoted to the Championship.

3. Alan Wiley, called "fat and unfit" by Alex after Manchester United's draw with Sunderland," agreed to retire" that season, he was also the ref on OT when the mancs lost 1-4 to Liverpool. 4. Mark Clattenburg refereed Manchester United's 6-1 defeat to Manchester City, hasn't refereed a single Manchester United game after that Manchester derby. (has acted as 4th official in 3)

5. Martin Atkinson -Involved in Manchester United's defeat to Chelsea, criticized by Alex, hasn't refereed Manchester United game since.

6. Ex referee Jeff Winter openly stating that he hadn't been given a Manchester United game for 2 years after sending Roy Keane off.

7. Howard Webb has been Manchester United's most used referee since the defeat to Manchester City.

8. More than 18% of the penalties Webb has awarded in his 8 year career have been to Manchester United. 9. Manchester United's CEO is on the board of The FA.

10. Alex Ferguson not happy with Chris Foy, Foy referees a League Two game. something he hasn't done since the 2001-02 season..

It's true screen, all of it.
