Scroll down the page 4 or 5 posts. See that pic of Howard Webb in his pajamas? Our own NYK posted that early yesterday morning for the Bootroom. Prophetic, no?
It’s like he’s Kreskin or something.
In all fairness to you or us or somebody, the Bootroom was late going up and United—home of the REAL 12th Man in Webb—had already gotten a penalty for the Mittens’ Franz Ferdinand impersonation when the NYK had to make a decision about what art to put in the post.
Anyway, as has been well-reported, Ryan Babel sent out the same picture via something called Twitter (crazy kids) after the match yesterday. Apparently the FA are aware of this thing called “technology” and have since charged Ryan Babel with improper conduct.
Pity they don’t use this “technology” stuff to maybe review players guilty of simulation, or refs who mightn’t be the most consistent with their calls at certain grounds. Instead they just get mad at a player who sends out a picture over the eBays. I think this is where we’re justified in thinking, “Tards.”
Babel later apologized. He has until Thursday to respond to the charge. Webb has until Wednesday to make himself the story of another match.


Wait, sorry if this is a stupid question — so was that an original NYK pic?
In a show of solidarity, every Premier League player on Twitter should post a funny image of Howard Webb.
Oh, I like this joke I just saw as well:
Howard Webb’s kids have denied their Dad is a secret Man Utd fan. “He is totally unbiased” Alex, George, Bobby, Matt and Cristiano stated.
Dan: No.
Babel should be punished for just being a really stupid person.
Third-rate? Congratulations on moving up to third-rate.
@WSR: You were just downgraded to second tier commenter with that comment, which still puts you four to twelve tiers above ESPN and Dirty Tackle commenters.
