I'm embarrassed to be English.

Think referee and his cronies has officiated his last World Cup game today!
who cares? its just a game
OK so the score in the end was 4-1, but I still do not understand why FIFA do not introduce some kind of goal line technology...not that it was needed on this occassion as anyone (other than the ref and linesman) could see it was way over the line.
Perhaps FIFA should take a leaf out of motor racings book and adjust the standings accordingly after the match!:roll:

Here we go with the football bashing...
As for the game, if that Lampard lob had been given, that might have swung the impetus towards us. However we'll never know. Apart from that, Upson shouldn't play again for England, and I still don't rate Heskey as a forward. Add on to that half of the others don't seem to have turned up for the whole tournament never mind this game.
We'll call it 4-2 then! Seriously though, even an official behind the goal would suffice, i'm sure FIFA commented on the high price of implementing any technology, so it would seem to be dead in the water just now.

What GV said, 22 growen men kicking a ball of air about for 90mins watched by 1000s of other growen men who fail to realise is just a game and cry when they loose
The arguement abouts costs that FIFA put foward is quite an odd one. It would appear that the ref is mic'ed up to someone as it is, surely who ever is on the other end of the mic could help?
On another note, what exactly does the fourth official do?

The referee is wired up so he can talk with the assistants and the 4th official in the event that something happens which the referee misses, Like when Kaka was (wrongly) sent off.
The 4th official is there to keep the 2 managers, assistant and all the subs behaving, and take over as the man in the middle in case the original referee can't continue for whatever reason.

Exactly. I'm going to go & have a nice pint to celebrate the next two weeks of peace and quiet & the end of the inane football diatribe.
I would expect the North Koreans have been welcomed back as heroes and marched out of the plane with the world cup held aloft !As to the team themselves, serious questions need to be asked of the team as the players seem to be more concerned with their club football then playing for England, reckon we shouldn't enter any more competitions until we actually have a decent team maybe we should invite the North Koreans to coach our team!!!

So commenting on a thread you have no interest in, why don't you spend your precious time learning to spell. I think you meant to say lose , you looser
So what was wrong with the punctuation? Was it the fact i left out a question mark ? Is that better ?
