Seconds away, Round Two.
I have successfully predicted the future on two previous occasions. The first was that you could get porn films on mobile phones. The was you’d be able to buy beer from a petrol station.
So here’s the third prediction. Referees will have their names on the back of their shirts. Another game over and we find ourselves whining about these clowns…
The problem is no longer that they can’t see everything, they are actually more interested now in being a component of the game than getting it right. In fact they know in their heart of hearts that they can’t possibly get it right, so they may as well just focus on becoming stars themselves.
The elbow by Julie Lescott and the stamp by Ballotelli were as obvious as they were nasty as they were intentional and so football needs to do the right thing and remove the responsibility from the increasingly vain and increasingly …useless men in black.
I’ve blogged separately on the boy Bale here.
The ratings then…
8.oo6 I wonder if you all realize just how important he was yesterday.
5.234 Is he a good defender? On his day he’s a crackerjack one. Is he a good wing back? Not so much. So let’s deploy Benny in the right manner, eh?
8.976 He was pretty immense. One of his toughest tests to date and he more or less passed with flying colours. Tough and mean and man of the match.
7.030 A largely impressive performance aside from a moment of complete and utter stupidity. Oh well. I guess that’s why they call it ‘human error’.
7.030 Nasri’s goal wasn’t his fault, but it was a situation he could have done better in. I’m just really keen on defenders defending and he appears distracted.
7.404 Didn’t do much, was this anything to do with the fact that he was battling with Walker for the wing? Defensively he offered more than Bale, but needs to actually achieve more with his possession.
7.566 Didn’t pull the strings enough, perhaps this was as he was one of the few trying to be disciplined.
7. 566 A businesslike performance for which he was rewarded with a partial concussion. A big well done to Webb and the girls.
7. 999 Magnificent goal. Magnificently stupid tactics. More here.
6.654 Had a really tough time of it and ought to have been replaced sooner. He appeared not to be included in Bale’s master plan or Arry’s.
7. 623 A sensational finish, in a game when he got worse service than a diner at a Fawlty Towers Gourmet Night.
What our coach doesn’t know about cheating (the taxman) ain’t worth knowing……. ;-)
Ballsuptelli’s agent:
On Tuesday, his agent Mino Raiola accused Webb of being a “coward”, and added: “If the English don’t start to protect Mario a little bit more, we will have to look at other alternatives and leave the UK.”
Can I call you a cab? When you get players like this thinking that they are “god’s gift to football”, you just know this is a train wreck waiting to happen.
The judge spoke to Arry today and asked him if he had his Bail money, Arry replied: ” Sure Guv, we aven’t sold him yet!

Watching Sky Sports after the Shitty match, I noticed that David
PlattPRATT was auditioning was for the Arsehole Whinger job by telling us that “I didn’t see it” when asked about Maniac Ballsuptelli’s stamp on PNB.Apparently Shitty were considering appealing the ban on the basis that Coward Webb did see it at the time, even though he says he didn’t. You notice that they are not actually disputing the nastiness of the foul, only that somebody else is not allowed to say “I did not see it” when it’s inconvenient for them.
I understand that PRATT is being considered as a future England manager. That’s just what the current crop of England Players needs. I can well see him saying, “Well if the ref didn’t hear John Terry racially abuse somebody, and I didn’t hear it either, that’s ok then”.
Someone said he (platt)used to a good player but I never saw it.
Gazza made him look good for England
Footballing George Formby.
Yeah I could never understand all the praise he got. Good goal against Belgium though.
He (Platt), didn’t see it, but he saw the incident well enough to say that Webb must have!, how exactly does that work?
It’s called, talking bollox…..
Something he himself is well versed in.
If you listened to what Platty said,none of it makes any sense.He seems to think that because there was no reaction on the field by the Spurs players the stamp was ok.All said with a smirk,boily chinned bastard.
Yes: You didn’t realise your pocket had been picked at the time, so you are not allowed to report it. A well established principle M’lud.
those gits want it both ways…..funny that when mancini was interviewed after the liverpool game he moaned about chitty not getting a penalty..and when the interviewer asked why none of the city players appealled for it! he went a bit quiet. boot on other foot now – how does it feel?!!
Harry for England ha ha ha ha ha ha
