I can and will blame an official that gets a decision wrong that costs the entire nation their World cup.
1 foot over the line is a goal, that even people with troubled site, could see!
Both England and Mexico were let down not just by the officials but also FIFA.

Blatter's comments after the game show just how stupid this man really is.
No goal line technology will be used because its too "expensive"!
The utter stupidity of a man who gets paid well over £1 million a year is shocking.

Manchester Utd first team wage bill stands at £2 million PER WEEK. How can fitting a webcam in a piece of wood be "expensive".
Im angry for Mexico England and Football as a whole.
More could have been done.

Most of the British people I have talked to simply believe that we played like a bunch of old women.
Britain may have been made to rot down almost to its core but at least the British people recognise truth when they see it and dont dodge it like some of other nationalities.

Yeah thats why England its the best country in the world and all the other are crap. If humanity would only born in England, the world would be perfect. And if England would have beaten Germany, then Messi would score a goal with his hand to England in the next match :lol:

Eeeeeek - Dont let a Scotsman hear you associate the English football team with the British! They'll kill you!
Haha

Seriously though - Goal line technology is now a must for football. I think if it had been the other way round ie. Germany not been given a clear goal Sepp wouldn't think twice.
The problem they will always use aswell is putting the technology to use in the lower categories of the game.
They shouldn't use that as an excuse but they will. Cricket and tennis to name just two are very wise in their stance in technology.
You see the thing is if the technology wasn't there nobody could say we should have it, now it is there its a no brainer. I cant see how anyone would have a adverse opinion!

I do not believe that any country is superior to any other.
People are much the same the world over.
Grollyball does act as a safety valve and helps reduce conflicts.
It means absolutely nothing in the scheme of things however.

We? Were you playing?

Yet again England set their sights far too high and lost sight of the limit of their abilities and as predictable as night following day, you lot now want to sack Cappello. Slight flaw in that though. He wasn't actually kicking the ball around. You'd be better off sacking the players. :lol:

I predict a Brazil Germany final.

I would not mind, but realistically I would be happy if the German team would beat Argentina. If that happens they probably will face Spain which looks like the potential semi final opposition. Not small tasks.

I do not follow football but I will tell you one thing, I bet I could have got a better result than Cappello.

Ironic coming from a country so woeful at football that their only choice is to back anyone that isn't England.

It's all those half time fish suppers and pre match ciggies that are causing Scotlands problems.



However bashing aside: I really don't see how people get genuinely worked up into thinking England are going to win every time. We are pretty --- and always have been.

Forget the regional rivalries fellas,

France and Italy failed to make it out the group stages. This is by far more serious.

England got done at 2-1 when the game should have been 2-2. At that score the game is evenly tilted with England not having to take the risks to get a goal.

The inqusitions shouldnt be at Capello or the merely average England team, it rest squarley at Blatters door and it will remain so until the buffoon has left his post.
More could have been done.
