Now its getting exciting, was defo in

There's gonna be riots!

bad friggin call

what does the crowd mean in chanting 'the referee is an anchor' 😉

I wonder if the referee is up to speed on English swear words?

do people who watch this on a regular basis think wayne rooney is a bit rubbish.

no only people who dont think that ..not playing his best but overall is best English player

I think the ref has been bribed by Ze Germans. getting in the way, disallowing definite goals!

Rooney is generally a fantastic player.

but today he is generally rubbish??

Tell you what – this has been a cracking game so far.

Alan Hanson wtf **** is this "we" nonsense!

it pains me to say this as a scotsman but that was about a yard in FIFA get your act together! If england lose this game they have been robbed and germany would have to admit it. Saying that englands defence is crap

Yeah, have to agree with you cracking game.

Final score preditions 4-3 england

Alan Hanson wtf **** is this "we" nonsense!

he's a cock. he needs to F off back to Morrisons!

Good on England, They have kept their heads after a dubious ref's call. I reckon they can build on their performance in the second half. All to play for.

So. Sepp Blatter. What's the story there. then?

Footbal needs video, it's a lottery without.

Alan Hanson wtf **** is this "we" nonsense!

Lawrenson too. Referred to England as "us" just before half time.

Remind us again who you earned your caps for Alan?

Drag off Rooney and stick on Crouch?
Daddy Long Legs on Acid, but he is 8ft tall so makes a good target man.

Obi Twa + 1

Lol at Lineker "England are back in this." Great game and more goals to come, but I've not seen much evidence that they'll be coming from us; Germans have had what, 6 or 7 great chances?

"I think the ref has been bribed by Ze Germans. getting in the way, disallowing definite goals!"

Assistant made the call, ref took his lead, so apparently they've both been bribed 🙂 He was miles off position though, I reckon he made the call based on the fact that it bounced back up to the crossbar, rather than actually seeing where it landed.

So. Sepp Blatter. What's the story there. then?

FIFAs argument is the poorer nations couldn't afford the technology!

quick heads up.
leeds rhino's v warrington 6pm skysports 2.

a game played by men……who's wages are not too disimilar to ours………. 😉

Why? I firmly believe in what goes around, comes around. Over a season everything will balance out.

Come on Wiggo!

73/2 in the cricket looking more likely for a win.

Sepp Blatter doesn't like England so he will be loving that disallowed goal!

The FIFA should pay for it. They are rolling in cash.

edit: FIFA are set to make $3.75bn profit from this world cup (more than South Africa will apparently)

He was in line with the play, where he should've been.

He made the wrong call, but wasn't in the wrong position.

At least if you go out you will have someone to blame …for a change.
Bet media will take this on the chin and not go into overdrive if score stays the same.

He was in line with the penalty spot , hardly miles off position!

Here we go again.

Specsavers new advert anyone?

😀 Of all the fixtures for that to happen in, after 44 years of hurt – I LOL'd.

A blatant injustice in a huge game like that, one of these days, is going to be the straw that breaks the camel's back and persuades FIFA to introduce video replays or goal-line sensor technology.

Over a season everything will balance out.

yes but it needs to do it over the next 45 minutes or Engerland will be going home despite scoring the same number of goals as Germany.

Lol.
