Hi Guys

I read this earlier and it made me chuckle.

Mark Clattenburg having medical at Carrington ahead of replacing Howard Webb for Manchester United.

There's been a lot of jokes flying about, but truth is Webb was more of a negative for us than a positive. Liverpool will need to find a different excuse from now on. Their excuses are evaporating, no more Fergie time, no more Webb.

I agree Syd,

type in Is Howard Webb into google and the top suggestion is 'a Manchester United fan'. I guess throw enough s*** some sticks. I have spoken to a few scousers who actually believe it as well!

The stats show Citeh and Arse have more points per game with Webb in charge than us!

GDS, I know he isn't a MU fan, I met his cousin in my local. He's a Rotheram fan. He also told me that if he walked into a pub nobody would say a bad word to him (his words), apparently he's no mug, but a very nice bloke.

I'm from Rotherham, met Howard many a times, my mates actually his nephew and I can assure you he's no united fan

Yeah Syd he's a quality lad, everyone here loves him because they know he's nothing like as majority of people make out

To be fair Syd, we didn't need too many excuses last year.

Irish, one season in 25, I can deal with that :)

Irish, I heard no one complaining when Gerrard was banging in penalty after penalty, always the victims it seems.
