Well that's how Webb saw it, yes.

...............

And everyone else. That is how you usually see it when both feet leave the ground.

Maybe Gerrard should learn how to tackle.

Scholsey could teach him..

Exactly you were even a man down for most of the game, we would have won that game without the penalty...

Because you scored another goal ? Ended 1-0....

It was great fun toying with you for the rest of the game, I must admit.

I don't think there was ever a squeaky bum moment.

Not looking forward to Atkinson at all. Loves the attention.

Nah thats Phil Dowd who loves all the attention.

I'm not to sure about it, but how is refereeing allocated? I find it strange that the last few times we played Chelsea we kept losing due to mistakes from Atkinson. Same goes for Tottenham regarding Howard Webb.

I'm sure the club must complain and demand them not refereeing, or is it just a selection rota with the referees?

Either way Atkinson as the referee guarantees a penalty, and a red card.

I find it baffling that the likes of Atkinson and Dean seem to get big games. To be fair to the likes of Webb, Dowd and Clattenburg, I've watched games where they have produced some really good displays of refereeing. Atkinson and Dean, and also Mike Riley at one point, never actually seem to have a good game.

Whatever happened to rob styles and Uriah rennie?

Brilliant news. Atkinson is the one referee that refuses to join Manchester Uniteds payroll, thats why Slur Alcie hates him. Howard Webb MBE(Manchester United Brown Envelopes)
