Football is rancid these days it really is.

Boss free kick...JUST HIT IT!

It’s been in decline since the advent of coaching badges iIMO

 

[Barrowjohn]

I think I’ll leave this World Cup until it gets to the last 8. This is what the game has come to. Absolute farce

 

[Milkman]

Don't have a problem with that third red. He's past him and getting a shot off or squaring it to the guy in the middle.

I like the lady explaining the ref stuff. very sharp and no nonsense.

or just ask he to have a go at justifying why the crap decision was 'correct'. No way on earth that 2nd red was worth it but she was there backing it up.

 

[Connor]

Second red card wasn’t a red but the other two were

 

[Papa Shango]

Hardly Massinga on Cannigia was it? Didn't even lose a boot.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Do we need a qualified ref on commentary every game to back up every rubbish decision by the match officials. We've all watched enough football to know when we've seen a terrible decision.

 

[Mozza1987]

I like the lady explaining the ref stuff. very sharp and no nonsense.

She is chatting utter rubbish though. Neither were red cards.

 

[EFCPaul]

I think we're in for an absolutely mental month of football.

 

[DanB90]

Not sure what’s more annoying, that the ref thought that was a red card, or that annoying split arse yank agreeing with the decision.

 

[allen]

Man, this game started with so much promise, too.

Getting bad vibes for this tournament - and we haven’t had a game in Trumpland yet.

I think I would prefer the procession of unknown nations doing daft things rather than the "big boys" throwing themselves on the floor and moaning all game.

 

[Milkman]

Football used to be so good

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

Anyone staying up for the S Korea Czech game later? Apparently state tv news in N Korea have already announced that the Czechs have won 30-0.

I'll be setting my alarm, 4am Prague time.

Both teams to score and at least 7 red cards is my prediction.

she's reading off the script, all the sides have had it. no messing about. she's well on point.
