Good Vs Neutral umpires

A couple of Pakistani 'legends' have lent their weight to the argument. Here is Ramiz Raja:

"'To me good umpires should officiate the match, even if it is
played by his home team, so that we have the best men in the centre. The
credibility factor should be taken into account while posting
umpires.'"


Having seen atrocious 'home umpiring' and how a couple of bad decisions can invoke cries of bias, I am for neutral umpires i.e., competent neutral umpires.

What is your stand?
