Interpolic

Best usage I've seen in a while.

Still shit.

WTF, Shearer's in Poland or Ukraine so there is no way in fuck Jimburst could have seen him the other day, lying cunt.

I'm ordering in a class takeaway, buying loads of nice beer and getting 10 grams of coke on the last day of his contract. Beat that!

I'd kill my granny to be 14th.

As if HBA has expressed any thoughts on the matter. Some people are just total scumbags.

Up to 23rd, I'm on the rise. Watch out.

Money shouldn't be a problem, don't know why you're getting so bogged down in that.

Fucking exactly man, getting so sick of this now.

Bloody hell, it's a minefield then. Definitive technology is a yes, replays that will not necessarily be definitive and will possibly disrupt the game and/or bring more flak on to the referees is a no. I hadn't realised you were talking about football politics but I'd hope that FIFA would back this technology after noises they've made recently.

Holy shit neesy, you've just completely contradicted yourself. I agree with your last sentence when you started making sense. i.e. Not one person, OK maybe one person ( ) wants goal line decisions to be decided by replays if other technology is there to be taken advantage of. Like you say if Cricket or Tennis can afford it, why can't football? That's what I'm saying. Beep in the referee's ear when the ball crosses the line is the ideal scenario, anything else can fuck off.

Goal line decision-wise, if we can do it immediately so the ref knows straight away then great I'm all for it. Replays and I'm not so sure. Has the potential to be manipulated by cynical teams and open the door to every little decision being decided by replay, depending on the wishes of the team involved. You've lost the whole point. The referee would have the power for a reply on goal line decisions that's it. No one has said to use it for everything else. Don't be condescending you absolute knacker. Read my post. I said it would open the door to other decisions. And read my other post.

Tonight's decision didn't even need new technology. A replay 10 seconds after showed it was over! Yes but they'd have to pause the match every time there was a marginal decision, whereas the new technology is meant to give the ref a signal as soon as the ball is in. And how many times during a match does a ball come off the line? Once max, so hardly stopping play. Play is stopped more for a Rory delay throw in! But that's the point though neesy, we're trying to take advantage of technology to decide definitive decisions that will not disrupt the pattern of play. If you can appeal these decisions with a replay then you're opening up a can of worms, imagine a situation where a team's 1-0 up towards the end of an important game and they get a chance quite obviously cleared off the line, they'll probably choose to appeal that decision to disrupt the momentum of the game, much like late subs which I also hate. This would also potentially stop the opposition's opportunity to break away and score. The big appeal on the side of the goal line technology debate is that it's clear and definitive and it doesn't affect the flow of the game, the ref gets a beep in his ear and that's the end of it. The more marginal decisions we can think about later, but to say we can decide goal line decisions via replay is daft IMO. Lunacy. 1). The flow of play is complete daft arguement. There are decisions now that take more than 30 secs to happen after a linesman confers with the referee I.e. bartons sending off v city is a good example. 2). The referee would have the power only and it would only be for goal line decisions. So how would that be unfair? 3). It's a million times cheaper than hawk eye and would only require a 5th video judge to be at games. 1) I don't know the incident like the back of my hand but wasn't the ball out of play when such decisions were being made? If so your point is redundant / you haven't read my post properly. It doesn't really matter if the ball's out of play and they're making decisions about red cards and the like, that's commonplace. 2) The ref would have the power only? So there's a marginal goal line clearance situation and the ref can choose to ignore the opposition breaking away in a likely goalscoring situation late in the game only to find out the ball never crossed the line? And the opposition gets a free kick in its own box for its troubles? 3) I don't know about the expense of fixing up a few microchips in the ball / goalposts VS paying an extra professional official each game, I doubt you do either. It shouldn't be important anyway if you're that arsed about getting the decisions right, in theory the proposed technology should be able to do that better than cameras.

I never used to encounter many when I was in Newcastle but the ones down in London have been really normal.

I said we were going to lose all 3 group games, we done better than I expected after the 1st game. I think we have got the kinder draw as I think in theory our play will suit playing against Italy and I don't think Italy have anything that we should be fearful of, weary of yes but not fearful of, everything they can through at us isn't really anything that our players don't deal with a dozen times a game in the Premiership without any incidents. The thing is though that this is England, theirs always a feeling that even though we know we are capable of winning the pressure could be too much for us too handle. We got the kinder draw because we won the group with 7 points from 9 FFS. You seem to be putting pressure on more than anyone else, I think most balanced English people expect a 50/50 chance at best against the Italians. If we go out in the quarters then we've had a relatively successful tournment in the circumstances, semi's very successful, beyond that ridiculously good. I think you need to get real rather than others tbh, people don't expect much these days and you're swallowing the media rubbish with a wide open mouth.

What the fuck is Mexes doing there!

Good fact.

It's incredibly tedious, sick of the media bigging up their own sense of self importance to the detriment of the country's chances. Give it a rest now FFS. Your average Joe knows we're in for a very difficult game versus Italy that could go either way, it's TV and the papers that create this poisonous attitude.

Isn't that going to be shite? Yep, even more shite now. They'll surely have it on a bigscreen somewhere. They did when I was at a festival during Euro 2008 albeit in Jormany. It's not really a festival, it's 2 day gigs. I'm fucked here, she's going to fucking murder me.

I'm at the fucking Hackney Weekend on Sunday man, I gambled on us finishing 2nd at best. GF is going to fucking kill me when I tell her we're leaving early.

That fucking band man, get rid of them.
