    Im liking the odds of Howard Webb @ 7/4, he's been by far the best ref so far and id assume he will get it, just wondering how and when they decide though?

    My mate got Howard Webb @ 16/1 before the tournament started. He's absolutely chuffed at the minute because more than likely, it will be Webb, or should be anyway.

    7/4 is a bit short IMo!

    was he that big at the start?

    jaysus, i think the 7/4 is alright considering he's a shoe in now unless he ****s up in a match between now and then.

    He was'nt given any of the quarter final matches which cant be a good sign.

    I think he'll ref it but I'd need more than 7/4 to put some serious money on it.

    Surely they'll be feeling sorry for the English after everything and hand an English ref the chance to shine on the Worlds Biggest Stage?
    My two cents.

    I couldnt imagine they'd give the job of refereeing the final to Howard Webb cos they feel sorry for England!

    Actually it is Sepp Blatter

    maybe they wanna weight up the rest of the referees to see if Webb has any competition, then the best of them get a semi (final lol) along with Web, and the better ref gets the final?

    Larriondo or whatever his name is,the Argentinian,reffed a QF game then the final in 2006

    I'm sure good aul Mr. Webb will have one more match in him to produce a big **** up.

    Don't rate him in the EPL but so far in the WC he's very done well I have to admit.

    The guy refereeing the current Holland Brazil game won't be far off it either. From the two matches he's reffed that I've saw, he's been pretty damn good. Just a thought.

    you're on your own there anyway, i thought he was pretty crap and the lads on the panel of RTE reckon he should be sent home.

    The ref from todays game won't get it, He was shocking altogether.

    Howard Webb is a shocking referee, how he is even there I'm amazed at he is not even the best in the EPL but has had decent games in the WOrld Cup but I would be still surprised if he got it. The argentinian ref is the best in it but if they get to the final then it might be Webb.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,979 ✭✭✭Vurnon San Benito


    Loving it :D
    I'm joking lads, it's Webb for me.
    Should be the Englishman anyway.
