Title: What a ref! Post by: Nem on June 26, 2006, 12:55:43 AM He has to be an England fan! Trying to reduce both Holland and Portugal to 5 a-side ;D
At least England do not have to face Ronaldo, Figo, Deco (phew) and a couple of other Portuguese 1st teamers!

Post by: Graham C on June 26, 2006, 01:00:00 AM lol it was pretty amusing. 4 red and about 16 yellows - crazy fun time.
Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: TightEnd on June 26, 2006, 01:01:00 AM he set the tone with two harsh early yellows and then went for it
Great entertainment! Football as the neutrals like it! Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: I, Zimbra on June 26, 2006, 01:01:21 AM The best part was seeing Deco and Van Bronckhurst sitting together on the bench, talking about it at the end... Barcelona teammates and all, both of them saying "what was all that about?"

Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: lazaroonie on June 26, 2006, 01:54:19 AM surely figo isnt suspended for the next match ? he only picked up a yellow card.
Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: TightEnd on June 26, 2006, 01:55:37 AM going to get a ban for the headbutt surely?
Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: Colchester Kev on June 26, 2006, 01:56:16 AM I'm sure video evidence will come into play
Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: lazaroonie on June 26, 2006, 01:57:27 AM going to get a ban for the headbutt surely? no can do unfortunately (unless they change the rules) - he already got punished for that, with a yellow card - video review panel can only interfere if the referee took no action/missed the incident completely.and here's hoping ronaldo will be fit eh ? 8) Title: Re: What a ref!

ITV's commentators seemed to suggest that as well laz. Since when have they known anything? Title: Re: What a ref!

The ref had his back to Figo and assumed he pushed Van Bommell. That is the only explanation for it. Like when Scheidjer pushed the Portuguese player in the 2nd half, he was given a yellow card for that. Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: Royal Flush on June 26, 2006, 02:53:15 AM I think it was the linesman who told the ref that there was a push with Figo, he obviously also missed the headbutt aswell however he got cautioned for the push. Well thats my guess.
If thats the way it went into the report then he could indeed be reprimaned by fifa, however if he was booked for the headbutt (i cant see any ref yellow carding a headbutt!) then there is nowt they can do. A depleted Portugal side still look better than a shit england team to me though! Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: thetank on June 26, 2006, 03:24:43 AM Figo's an old man.
I'd almost prefer it if he were banned and Portugal had to play a whipper snapper who runs around the park for 90 minutes. Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: Rooky9 on June 26, 2006, 12:38:25 PM If that ref has any sense (i know i know!) he'll ask them to review that video of the headbutt.... I'd go with Flushy's reasoning him getting a yellow card and so reviewing the headbutt shouldn't be against there double jeopardy ruling
Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: matt674 on June 26, 2006, 02:38:38 PM Figo has been cleared to play against England - rumour has it that Portugal are to appeal against Deco's sending off, though i doubt that one will get anywhere.
Scholari on Figo incident "Jesus told people to turn the other cheek, unfortunately Figo is not Jesus Christ" Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: Karabiner on June 26, 2006, 02:59:00 PM That Ivanov is the same joker that reffed the Champion's League final.
Does anyone know if his dad was a Russian linesman in 1966 ? Title: Re: What a ref!

Scholari on Figo incident "Jesus told people to turn the other cheek, unfortunately Figo is not Jesus Christ" Two yellow cards cant be apealed against unless its mistaken identity - its an basolute joke that they wont review that 'headbutt'... it was without doubt violet conduct and so a red card... FIFA make the game so much harder than it should be Title: Re: What a ref!

Chance are that you won't, but you believe that you will because that is the mentality to get you there - where is the harm in throwing yourself (if you so wish) whole heartedly, and with blinkers on, into supporting your country?!! If we didn't like to immerse ourselves into thinks in this way then we would be no different to all the other animals on the planet... emotions are what makes us tick so why not let them run riot once in a while! Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: ifm on June 26, 2006, 09:06:03 PM Plus the only team that looks any good are Germany and we dodge them till the final.

Yeah thats fine, but in poker when u crack AA with you 22, you know you got lucky.....you don't deny it! Title: Re: What a ref! Post by: Rooky9 on June 26, 2006, 09:16:42 PM Come on...
Okay, you get lucky like that and you would actually think, 'hang on, this could be my night'!! which is why there can be some positives to draw from still being in... End of the day while we have been poor in the WC not once have we been the worst team in the games we have played.... FACT. Title: Re: What a ref!
