There's no way wotsiname should have stayed on the pitch for a chest high late booted challenge. He was subservient to the occasion - Holland should have had 2 players sent off by half time and a cheating and violent team nearly made it to the lottery of penalties. Weak refereeing.

This.


That tackle on Alonso was disgraceful. Actually hoped that Webb would make a momumental fuck up and never ref again. Oh well....

I think we have had too many referees making match defining decisions in big games with sendings off and penalties. Webb made no hasty decisions and the best team won, he will be appluaded for this performance I reckon.


We all saw the bad foul on Alonso of course, but he did not see it in slow mo like us, overall I thought he did really well - he took no shit from the players, laid down the law early with a fair few bookings of the key prepetrators and also avoided controversial decisions. Well done I think.

I think Webb and his linesmen did very well. We all know what Van Bommel has got away with all tournament, Webb made no hesitation in booking him. 15 yellows and one red is more a refelction on the players than the ref and for all the prostestations Webb and the linesmen were spot on for the goal.

Thought the Ref was poor last night and spoiled the game, whether because of his reputation from the Premiership I don't know but he had no authority on the game. It's a World Cup final and there will be late tackles early in the match but instead of using his discretion he continually nipped the flow of the game. Yet when it came to giving a second yellow card to Puyol or Robben he decided to use his discretion.

    • uninsured, not to worry just walk away and someone else will deal with it....
    • They’ve backed away from pretending they produce their own goods recently. That claim sat at the centre of the misdirection for years. They’ve now accepted they can’t sustain it, so they’re beginning to highlight the local independent bakeries whose products they actually sell. The business is essentially a courier model running on a slim margin.
    • Another sparrow hawk visor to our cherry tree at the weekend.  Our robin survived, but we may be a sparrow down.     any thoughts on bird feeders & bird baths with the current bird flu?  I try to wash out the bird bath most days when at home, but not on the 3 days in a row that I’m in the office & the bird feeders rather less regularly. Would it be better not to have at all (as my partner thinks)? 
    • OOOPS. My daughter just had to pay a five pound fine. I hadn't put a stamp on it. I remember wondering whether to use a  first or second class stamp,  and clearly when I posted it I still hadn't decided (but sadly didn't notice). I feel really bad for suspecting a postie might have  opened it.  Sorry posties.
