RVP not being charged by the FA.

What a f***ing surprise.

 

howard webb stated that he saw the incident but did not deem it violent conduct.

Unbelievable.

how can you see it and not deem it violent conduct. :lol:

 

The bloke did miss a Kong Fu kick in the World Cup final, at least he's consistent.

I've said for years there's corruption in refereeing.  Anywhere where that much money is at stake, and with a governing organisation such as FIFA, it's naive to believe there won't be corruption.

 

RVP not being charged, for the reason listed above, is just the latest in a long line of evidence.

The Rooney forearm smash is still the worst like. Most other players would get an almost Ben Thatcher ban for that.

Just further verifies what most people who follow English football already know Chris.

Interesting view from nufc.com:

 

We can't help but wonder whether the FA's decision to over-rule Webb and rescind the red card he showed to Wigan's Jordi Gomez last week played a part in his review of the Cabaye incident - it hardly seems likely that "England's top referee" would willingly admit to his own fallibility and that he'd missed the incident in question.

 

And if that is the case, then he certainly wouldn't be owning up to an incorrect decision in the case of Tiote - which may have been his own personal saving grace.

No charge for Van Persie, well quelle surprise.

 

(Although think we've been let off with regards to Tiote).

 

No we haven't - Webb saw the Tiote incident so he can't be retrospectively punished.

Ah, didn't realise this.

The FA don't punish retrospectively for serious foul play anyway, only violent conduct, so Tiote was never in any danger. Perhaps this is because it would mean a ref admitting he hasn't seen a tackle but it's never happened and I suspect it never will.

Webb didn't cost us, we lost the game in the first 15 minutes due to poor play and sloppy marking on corners. He did have a poor game, failed to do anything about a Van Persie elbow which he claims he saw, denied an obvious penalty on Cisse, Tiote's challenge could have been red and he ruled out a contentious goal. The last one I'll cut him some slack, but he had another poor game.

 

The larger debate about Webb is a worthy one. His handling of the world cup final was awful, and Spain only just won before it went to penalties. I remember the press tried to put spin on it, suggesting a 'patient' reffing performance from Webb, which was like trying to polish a turd. Had that game reached penalties, and had Holland lifted the trophy, Webb would have been under massive international scrutiny for allowing a world cup final to descend into farce.

 

It is strange he is held in such high esteem as a ref. Interestingly, Chris Foy reffed Man Utd's 3-2 defeat to Spurs last weekend. Alex Ferguson was highly critical of him after the match for rejecting two penalty appeals. The following weekend, Chris Foy found himself demoted three divisions to ref a League Two clash between Accrington and Rochdale.

No one is saying we lost the game because of Webb.  People are just pointing out that he's a corrupt twat of a referee.
