Conspiracy theory of the day

[Craig_H]

Some Scouser ringing up Talksport and making the observation about Howard Webb being a fomer officer of the law, for South Yorkshire Police...

You do the math...

[CJ]

i think that stuff like this embarreses us

even more than my spelling or lack of

[CJ]

when i say us i mean football fans generally just this case its us

[Craig_H]

Needless to say, Stan Collymore cut him off as soon as the fella mentioned it

[CJ]

we, football fans, really do come up with some crap

however we all love the game and its part pf our lives maybe more than it deserves to be

[Craig_H]

Crap or otherwise, the fact of the situation with Webb is true though

[CJ]

you know i disagree

i dont think he had a bad day at all.

however there is a webb thread for this anyway.

[Craig_H]

I'm not talking about good or bad day. I'm saying that in terms of sheer facts, what the fella rang in and said about Webb's former employment & employer, is true.

[CJ]

ah right

well its a fact but it has as much bearing on his current job as whether he likes his orange juice with or without bits

[Craig_H]

Most likely, yeah

[Fivex]

He's from Rotherham. My gf is from there, and speaking to people who live there, there's a hell of a lot of misconceptions and mistruths still being told as gospel.

I wouldn't rule it out based on my experience put it that way, and that's without considering the police factor.

FFS this thread is embarrassing.

FFS this thread is embarrassing.

FFS, keep your merkin on I wasnt suggesting that the guy's 'accusation' has any credence.

Monday morning Craig, after losing to Scum.. don't feel great and then I read this....

[Craig_H]

I actually dont feel too bad, certainly more upbeat than i was before the game. We did better than i expected and we've got the ****e hard start out of the way.
