Please, go check the 9th post before yours.

[Yes, the one with lots of pictures.]

Stop trolling. There's nothing to add.

You mean the one with the lot of pictures that blatently shows England being robbed? ;)

and yet another post by yourself with a load of pictures just to raise your post count. :rolleyes: ;)

wow what a guy Ricardo is.. jumping into Terry.

At least Meier made a full page apology in one of the national tabloids and said sorry that he was wrong for robbing us.

(so yes there is something to add).

Ah well... GOOOO THE CZECH REPUBLIC!!!!!!

judging by their form in the tourney I think they could have a great chance of winning.

:angry: Now that does it. Boohoo, you lost, cry-cry, little girl...

Whata bunch of bad loosers! Even the brits that watched the game with us realized that it was foul.

If you don't know the rules of the game, don't play the game.

At least Meier made a full page apology in one of the national tabloids and said sorry that he was wrong for robbing us.

Oh, yes... :o

The british tabloids...

The ones who posted Diana's love letters...

The ones who posted that Elvis is still alive...

Incredible, they have even talked about his mariage, that he cheated his wife (true), but what the hell it has to do it the match?

God damn it, you people are really sick!

:whistle: I WILL SELL MY SOUL TO THE TABLOIDS, ALL HAIL THE TABLOIDS!

Just me talking crap...

Yes and some more crap.. oh and another picture..

Damn I am lame.

What are you talking about???

He was no where near the goal!! The assistant gave it!!!

It was studied by another 20 professional referees around the world on BBC news who also said it was a goal.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND??

Do you understand the rules?? Ricardo jumped into Terry not the other way around.

Tabloid or not, it is what was quoted from him.

BUT Yes its over and done with now... but who are you actually arguing with?

Me and 20 pro referees or your blurred vision?

And you are really showing that you have no grasp of reality with the weird, deranged Elvis line... how sad is that. :no::

oopps there you go again with another picture.. trying to fill up a post :rolleyes::

Anyway.. now we have cleared up that England was robbed once and for all.

GO CZECH REPUBLIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think they really have a good chance.. especially against the Danes.. who imo havnt been playing too well lately.

Ok this will shut everyone up, its official the Urs made a mistake! UEFA referee committee agreed that was indeed a goal and that Urs was in the wrong. It's everywhere papers news etc. So he DID make a wrong decision and Urs was supposed to referee the final but hes been cut because of his mistake.

Personally I think in international cup matches they should have a third eye, like the one in cricket! A couple of referees sit in a booth and reply the goal so if the referee on the pitch isn't too sure he should ask them for a decision.

A similar idea was proposed to FIFA, by using the video replay as a guide for the referee. The FIFA president rejected it.... miscalled jugdement seems to be part of the football passion.. bah rubbish i say.

Yeah, I agree.

I heard ages back they were gonna try something like that possibly at the last world cup then at Euro 2004.

Then they threw the idea on the back burner lol.

I guess thats what Linesmen are for.. maybe the refs should listen to them more for now.

Coff, coff :sleep:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/e...and/3841979.stm

UEFA is putting him out of the finals because of the controversy caused by the Brits.

By the way, I think that the american football also started with 3 referees and now they're 10 or 11 or something... :wacko:

And they can use video records, like in rugby!

"Meier said: "It was a clear foul, the keeper was in his own area and must be protected and if it happened again, I would make the same decision.

"England are looking for a scapegoat and they are looking to blame me." "

"A defiant Meier also insisted he interpreted the rules exactly right as laid down for the tournament.

He said: "England should remember that we are at Euro 2004 and not playing in the English Premier League. ""

so... you "invented" football and can't even know the rules :p

LOL

EHEHEHE!

:D

Edit: Ops, already quoted.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
