Comments little late but anyway.

Germanys Kevin Kuranyi for the Handball. (We don't need cheats Maradona Wannabe)

Totti for the discusting challange then spitting (It was like a kung fu kick to the leg. God knows how he got away with it)

Silvestre even admitting he should've been sent off against England for taking Rooney down in the box.

Jamies foul on Henry? Although I only saw this once though.

Ones in red I feel are agaist the spirit of the game.

You guys got anymore?

Kuranyi wasn't trying to score with his hand he just lashed out coz he felt he was being tugged.
Deliberate hand ball = yellow

right decision.

Totti should have some kind of action taken against him for the spitting alone.
It's a weapon for the weak.

As for the two decisions in the France-England game, i'd agree with 2 yellow cards actually.

There's been a few yellow cards handed out wrongly so far ... and one red one that definetly wasn't right.

Cool I agree with the Red meaning it shouldn't have been. Thats the goal keeper one right?
Speaking of Tugging. Shirt pulling.
I hate it! Some should be Reds because they put the stricker, defender or whatever of ballance. Spoils the game IMO. Even though every team does it. :(

yeah the russian keeper last night. shocking decision but honest mistake by the ref though.

Kuranyi, maybe. I might be thinking that because of his daft little beardy thing though, that should be red card. Red card for being a chav. :D

I can't recall Totti's challenge so I will make no comment.

Silvestre and James. Both should've been red, probably. However, seeing as both challenges happened in the same game I'd say the ref showed consistency and so I have no complaints about them both being yellow.

I have a red that I feel should've been yellow though... The Russian one last night which saw their goalie sent off. I think the rules say that he probably should've been sent off but I thought it was harsh. He went out to get ball after a woeful backpass and lead with his feet trying not to handball (same as David James). He won the ball and being a goalie his natural reaction was to use his hands, so he touched it slightly with his forearm which I do not believe was particularly intentional. As soon as he realised that he was out of his area and that he had touched the ball he pulled his arm away and made every attempt not to touch it. It took him less than a second to realise his mistake and the ball was still free in my opinion.

[edit]which I believe you are talking about now, thinking about it.

having watched the replay closely ... i actually think he didn't make contact at all.
His arm comes over the ball as you mention a split second after he realises how close his arm is to the ball.
But in my opinion no contact is made.

anyway we can't change the outcome of the game... we just have to hope UEFA will act in the right way. I heard they have a meeting every morning with the refs of the cometition. Surely that incident will be discussed.

That cost them the game possibly. I thought Portugal were poor again (sorry Portugal fans) and Russa couldv'e pinched the game. But with only 10 men that didn't happen. At the same time I'd like to see Portugal do well.
I just hope the dickhead missbehaving SO CALLED England fans hasn't darkened our friendship with the host Nation.

MORONS!

wat should Totti and Torres get in that case?:crazyboy:

these things always happen nowadays.we can see inconsistency in the refs.
it should rather be a red for BOTH james and silvestre.
also for Totti.
but for Kuranyi a yellow was enough.

Definately Totti for his challenge on Henricksen! He should be imprisoned for that!!

I think Totti shoud have a red for the tackle

anyone have a pic of that totti challenge?

Oh :confused:

I think I've seen a picture of this somewhere. I'll look for it. )

Maybe the guy Totti spit on said something to him? You guys are making a little too much out of it if that's the case. Has anyone ever been frustrated in a match?

definitely Totti tackle on Henriksen.

Yeh but you don't spit on someone whatever is said.

can I have your autograph? (H) :p

yea i'm looking for a pic of his tackle

i've seen the pic of him spitting once too often:D

i felt when james took down henry, it didn't deserve a red but probably yellow, he had to make that play to save what was going to be a goal, though it did very little because zizou scored anyways

If it really was a red he would have been suspended for the next match.

Don't know if it's a good or bad thing. :crazyboy:

Who cares? Totti's suspended for 3 games anyways. :)

Serves the fu**er right! (H)

I tink 3 games for spittin is a little harsh, three games for that tackle wouldve been much better imo.
