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.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.
