Referee Claus Bo Larsen has named Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo his 'most annoying player'.

Claus Bo Larsen took charge of Milan's defeat to Ajax on Wednesday

The FIFA Top Class Referee, who took charge of his final Champions League game on Wednesday, claims Ronaldo is always looking to buy free-kicks and that they have to be prepared for his behaviour ahead of Champions League games.

"He's always out to get a cheap free-kick, especially at home," he told Ekstra Bladet. "We tended to talk before games about how he'd go down easily.

"We know not to be biased, but we have to be prepared. He has a clean slate at the start of every game. When he would lie down after failing to win a free-kick, he smiled at me because he knew I didn't fall for his theatrics."

So they know... huh.gif

Am I the only one quite worried about referees going into games with preconcieved opinions?

Obviously we all know that certain players (Ronaldo and Drogba to name two) are more inclined to fall over rather than stay on their feet, but is it really fair that refs go into games expecting this? I know you could say its just a case of the boy who cried wolf (and he does say that players get a "clean slate" for every match, but its still a bit worrying IMO.

It is inevitable, until the day when robots start refereeing

Or FIFA/UEFA and all continental organisations finally enter the 21st century and accept the change technology can bring to the game.. does it make rugby, Cricket, Tennis, American football or any other game boring or any less interesting? No! It brings fairness to the game.. it's very easy for Fifa to write.. Fair play on their ads but they are doing absolutely nothing to ensure it.. more refs will not do anything.. they are also human.. what if one lines man says its a goal and other says its not? The only way to eliminate doubt is technology.. atleast have a certain number of challenges per game that the team captain or manager can make when he feels they are being cheated..

Gattuso is a joke. He should have see red in about every game I've seen him play. Flamini deserved red too for a stupid and dangerous tackle.

Great win for Totenham, and trully deserved.

I couldn't agree more. Officials were far too lenient, but at least they got the right call in injury time. I can't wait for the sideshow at White Hart Lane.

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
