I was surprised that Howard Webb created the vacancy by resigning.. Unless Howard likes his beer more than the wonga?

To be fair. He's a referee who earns a fraction of what the players earn. Why not cash in and get paid a decent wage for being one of the best at what you do?

Good luck to him.

Because they wanted to poach a GOOD one?

I'm sure with the right marketing experts, we could have FOOLED them into thinking he was good.

One of the first celebrity referees, seems a bit of a knob to me.

It'll be an interesting one for the commentators out there, as there does not seem to be an Arabic word for Clattenburg!
