The Referee Urs Meier of Switzerland. What a pathetically biased showing by this Green Grocer come referee tonight. He was intimidated by the home crowd and was clearly SCARED to give any decisions against Portugal. The GOAL was perfect. The only person Campbell fouled was John Terry as he climbed on him to nod it in. The Linesman who was in a much better position than him GAVE IT. HE ACTUALLY GAVE IT FOR SPLIT SECOND THEN HIS ARSE WENT!!! I hope further action is taken against him and he shouldn't referee at this level again. Spineless, gutless and cowardly. JUST LIKE THE COUNTRY OF HIS BIRTH. He should get the glaziers bill for the windows that will go out in Lisbon tonight.
WEAPON Thats all the fucking arsehole can be described as ! He looks like a shit Richard Branson the fucking C U N T !! Not happy at the moment :evil: :evil:
pissed me off when he gave us little decisions to keep us sweet at point's... totaly see through... did'nt we hammer his home team 3-0 not long back?
Re: The Referee Why do you have to spoil posts with shit like that, what the fuck does it matter which country he is from? You're just having a go at all swiss because of one guy's actions. I totally agree with everything else you said.
he was biased from the start, we got 2 players booked & some of th eportugese tackling was worse than ours & he didn't even tell them off! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
if anyone wants to let mr meier know what they think of his exceptional refereeing skills post here http://www.ursmeier.ch/referee/
also didnt a swiss player spit at one of ours in that game we beat them 3-0? and whoever it was put in a formal complaint about it and the player got left out of the team lineup for the next game or something?? probably getting his own back...a total fix!
oh and it didnt help being another swiss linesman there either! swiss fuckin cheese, full of holes, and smelly!!!!!
Maybe the reff just made some really bad but honest mistakes? Or maybe it's a Swiss-wide conspiracy against England because we beat 'em!!!! It's a very hard job and he didn't do a good job of it, I doubt there's any more to it?
It brings us back to the question of why we can't have an off pitch ref, we have the tech now to do it without slowing the game down at all. Until we do this we will always have crap like this.
Although this goes against everything said by an Englishman in the last 24 hours I DON'T agree with having extra refs or technology to help with the game. If we had of had this last night, we'd of prob gone through fact, but it wouldn't of been half as emotional and gripping as it was. That's the best part of football in my opinion. It's shit that we're always on the f'in receiving end though!
Just watched ITV news and David Elleray says he thinks it was a goal. He also said he'd been on the phone to other refs around the world who also though it was a goal. Comes to something when refs don't back other refs! That never happens. Like I said earlier, he didn't cock up - pro refs don't!
Re: Re: The Referee Err....... NO Because they are spineless cowards who helped the Nazi's also helps.
The Swiss referee who disallowed a goal by England in their Euro 2004 quarter-final with Portugal says he has been put under police protection. Urs Meier told a Swiss radio station that he been advised to go into hiding after receiving death threats. Mr Meier said he had received more than 16,000 e-mails after his address was printed in a newspaper. (and by The Spence) What does he expect? YOU DONT FUCK WITH THE ENGLISH
jus been readin about it! crashed his website (the server) as well - hahah! told by police to leave the country for a while for his own protection!!!!!!!! :laugh:
