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.

    • Cuktech 10 Ultra charger review: big display, four ports, 110W total power

      I'm content with my dual charger for now, but this actually sounds quite nice - and it's less expensive than I was expecting. As for the company, they can name themselves "Nazirapist" for all I care.

      Chrome has history of being the browser everyone uses because Internet Explorer sucks, not realizing that Edge changed that, but people got into the habit of using Chrome. I use Brave and I've never been happier with a browser. It does what it is meant to do and gets out of the way.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
