Brilliant this is exactly the kind of transparency that the PL has badly needed.  It is a shame ( unless I missed it ) that they didn’t clarify the Rashford goal in the Manchester derby but nonetheless this a small step in the right direction what Webb is trying to do is still a work in progress but after this I’m more convinced than ever Webbs plan that he is beginning to implement is going to be a major success

Well personally I'm still happy with the Rashford decision (both as a Utd fan and a referee), so no clarification needed...

But unfortuanately in this modern world we live, I think though the intention is good, don't expect anything monumental. Confirming a player should have been sent off in a cup tie his team lost is one thing, but giving/not giving a goal for a team that goes onto be relegated/win the league is probably opening up themselves to some kind of liability, and possible legal action (however unlikely to succeed it is). Same arguments as to why refs don't talk after games.

Only solution to this would be to get all clubs to agree (legally) to some sort of no complaint procedue that let refs (or PGMOL) talk openly without fear of ramifications
