The game this evening was ruined by the referree. But it was entertaining in a macrabre way and will certainly help England’s progress…
I hope this picture of Deco and Boulahrouz illustrates quite how absurd the debacle was: Opposing players had more in common than the referree and common sense!
If the image is broken, view it on FlickR here.

It was ruined by the referee but the players must shoulder some of the blame. It was a disgraceful display of diving and unsporting behaviour.
Quite sickening to watch.

I think that the players wouldn’t have been so bad if it wasn’t for the anger the referrees caused them to feel — my blood pressure was raised and I didn’t much mind what the result would be.
