[Saba Sports News] The program “Referee
Watch,” hosted by Howard Webb, the head of the Premier League Referees
Company, and Liverpool legend Michael Owen, recently aired. In the program,
they discussed controversial decisions in matches such as Arsenal vs. Newcastle
United and Tottenham Hotspur vs. Chelsea. After the program aired, it faced a
wave of negative criticism online. The Daily Mail tracked and reported on the
program’s negative comments, stating that Owen was like a puppet and did not
provide a genuine explanation for the controversial decisions. Owen was very
unhappy with this and posted a furious response, calling the Daily Mail
“vile individuals” and accusing them of making an effort to find negative
comments to criticise his program.
