WORLD CUP 2010

Refs are warming up for Wimbledon…

Tremendous game, but looking at replays that disallowed US goal was a travesty.  Am so excited, can I stay sober enough to focus on England match in 2.5 hours time….?
::)

Well, I'm glad we were able to salvage a point.  Good look to England….........  I wish you a good draw

GRRRR WORLD CUP OFFICIATING

[mvb]

good show of fighting spirit

I mean, I didn't even see a line official announce the offside, it looked to be all the middle ref, who was horribly out of position to make that call.

Thanks!  I wish us at least a ref who's had an eye test in recent years…!

[mvb]

maybe he whistled for one of the 132 fouls that were committed by all players in the goal area, that said the goal shouldnt have been rejected

That, at least, would've more appropriate.

Edit: And yes, good luck to our UK competitors in being assigned some impartial, competent referees.

@Madame:

Nice goal, Landon!

Thanks! I was waiting for someone to make that reference. So I missed the Germany blunder as well as the US comeback tie. I am going to watch them both later today after England match. PS, I may step off the plane in one of my Argentina jerseys…

Now if only the Algerians can pull a stunt, then I'll be even happier!.. And hated by àll on here probs

I am with you on this brotha! Algeria / US on Tuesday and we need England to go down… Sorry G.

[Beatle]

I guess England is gonna win this one…have fun watching , Paula , 1:0 ....

[Seul]

Yep - want the US to go through instead of the UK.

Landon: great minds… 

[Katsushin]

Still upset over that f'n ref.
Trying not be very zen and accept, but we were robbed…
Good luck to England though.

We'd never take it personally  >:(, however I would love to see England and US go through, which I believe is still a possibility…

Got plenty chilled wine, twiglets and belief... what more do I need?  Oh, yes, some decent playing by England and a referee with half a brain.

Let's see what happens in the next couple of hours... bring it on!

Nil - Nil…

[Madame Buttonfly]

WTF…?  Painful thus far... I keep shouting at the TV what they need to do, but they're just not listening!

[Seul]

Good seeing these Algerians play!.. Eager, young, a tad selfish; but all in all refreshing.
