Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher this evening fronted a cracking Sky Sports documentary entitled The Referees - Onside with Carragher and Neville. Sky's football analysts went behind the scenes and spent a day training with the referees in the Premier League, reviewing decisions, interviewing refs, and struggling through the demands of the fitness test.

Ahead of the fitness test, Carragher decided to stoke things up by asking the referees who was the worst to officiate. The consensus was Carragher, something Neville greatly enjoyed. He justified the decision by saying that he got quieter as his career wound down. Swarbrick shot back with the response that Carragher loved:
That's because you weren't playing!

It's a great watch, we recommend you dig it out.
