Summary
Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by SkyBet.
In today’s episode, one of the best referees in the world - Howard Webb - joins hosts Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Ian Wright and Jill Scott.
Howard shares how he dealt with managers, his new role at the PGMOL- and how refereeing in the modern game has changed.
The panel debate players delaying the game, law changes they would bring in, enrolling ex-players as referees, rolling substitutes and of course: should VAR be scrapped?
Plus, Howard takes us behind-the-scenes to his refereeing experience at the 2010 World Cup Final - where he dished-out 14 yellows and one red card in Spain’s win over the Netherlands.
