are you kidding me?

thats like a slap in the face. That seriously pisses me off.

When terry does it , oh its a foul for sure, but when zlatan does it, nah no foul he was just going for the ball.

How is that different?

omg wat a crock of shit.

and like i said, thats where football died, to give that as a freekick is a complete kick in the bollox the the sport of football.

but like relik said, they had no choice but to say that.

However wonder wat meiers chances of reffing final are. 0 im guessing.

they said it coz its what they believed, afaik all around europe the press its saying it was a fault, only in Britain and Ireland it seems to be a shocking decision

not even with UEFA saying he was right, you keep seeing it has a shockingly bad decision.

imo, you are letting your feelings obscure your thoughts, but be happy, Portugal might have a similar decision against them in the next match, and then u can all have a big laff

well it was a good debate.

imo Portugal was still lucky to have that goal disallowed...

whether it was legal or not, for a referee (from 40 yards away) to make that call, given his previous similar decisions and given the fact the linesman gave it, is 'brave'.

the best team did win overall, and for that reason alone I don't feel particularly cheated.

Gaz: yeah he's not gonna be the ref for the final. Its that German guy.

You still dont get me, im quite happy for portugal to win it, i dont want portugal to have any dodgy decisions against them, wat i want is for football to be played as it is supposed to be, not like the bag of crap, corrupted, easily conned , fairys game that it is at the moment.

and like i said before , i want ppl to understand that to give a freekick in those situations is completely a travesty of justice.

It was never a foul, it never will b a foul, but whilst the game is played as it is at the moment filled with dishonest , dirty players and not forgetting 8 different set of rules for different countries, it will always get the freekick.

Gaz, i didnt meant you, but im sure some of the folks out there would actually enjoy it

Post by **The_One** » 28-06-2004 22:38

I want Holland to win it but if they don't I wouldn't mind Portugal winning it either.

3-2

lots of scoring
I think (I just hope) NL will win, being positive is a good thing!

R3L!K · Post by **R3L!K** » 29-06-2004 10:50

i think 2-1 to Portugal.

the Portugese should be able to fustrate the Dutch if they play smart and keep the ball in Holland's half.

yar but we have so much confident after (finally) winning those penalties

Messy · Post by **Messy** » 29-06-2004 12:10

I'll be happy if we end in semi's now

What RaGe said is true =P It's our sad personal little victory in all of this ¬_¬
