Alot of this is being done in sports more regularly now.
To me its unsportsmanlike conduct and disruptive to the game.
all they need to do is put a video monitor infront of the 4th referee, if the referee isnt clear on a decision the 4th ref will consult the video footage. it is highly unlikely such technology will be used to fish out the divers, instead it will concentrate on disallowed goals and such.
to solve the diving situation just have a man from Fifa review the game after and fine players who dive. heavy fines though none of that 10,000 swiss franc crap.
felt bad for Chile today, they truly do play some amazing football they just came up against an excellent Brazilian team. Brazils defence today showed that they are capable of stopping even the most aggressive of attacks. Even Cruyff said the Chileans play the most pleasant football.
^ i agreee with that idea
im not sure why they dont do that
i guess the ppl at fifa are tooo old schooool
england were indeed robbed of lampards goal and it couldve changed their game
germany is always slept on...they are a team that always go far in the world cup
i wouldnt be surprised if they made it to the finals
i think germany can take out argentina, argentina will be tested by a strong team
this time, it will be a good game
portugal could upset tomorrow
and hopefully japan go through ...goooo blue samurai!!
brazil have a chance of reaching the final
they arnt playing the nicest of footy but they are getting the job done with efficient footy
peace
I heard if Japan loses, they are going to take it out on some more whales.
^ sushi time!!!!
Yeah, those whalers are savages.
Lol!!!!
I will be laughing when the harpoon vessel capsizes.
whatever floats yer boat mate :thumbup:Quote:

^co-sign, i hope Spain destroy Portugal.
There was an interview with Seth Blather on tv after the England game and he said using goal line technology is too complex to be used. It has to be wired all around the pitch and you cant use radio waves or some shit.
He thinks one of the best things about soccer is the discussions in pubs afterwards about refereeing decisions wether they were right or wrong, but really, does he think that honestly makes up for a team getting knocked out of the world cup coz of bullshit decisions, or not getting into the world cup (i.e Ireland) coz of fucked up decisions? Id give up all those discussions to have had Ireland in the world cup this year (even though they probably wouldnt have gotten far).
Basically Seth Blather is full of shit. With the advancements made constantly in modern technology his reasons for not introducing goal line technologhy can easily be overcome. FIFA really needs an overhaul, get rid of that fuckin grumpy cunt and bring in someone younger.
Id love if England would make a big deal out of this goal line technology and try to get it introduced, but they want to hold the 2018 world cup (i think, either that or the 2016 European championships) so they wont say much in order to get it. All fuckin politics.
OH SHIT
I don't mind the use of technology as long it is not stopping the game.
Maybe 2 more judges like in cup UEFA should solve the problem.
And those stupid screens shouldn't be showing on the stadium, what kind of shit is that?
You didn't come on stadium to watch the screens and your stupid yourself when camera's zoom you, you came to watch the match.
If those footage is not supposed to influence on the referee why the hell are they showing it in the first place? Everyone gets pissed of, and for referee is even harder to judge after he realised that he made a mistake.

its simple, yet fifa wanna complicate shiet
They're looking into that now.
Ofcourse it's too late for this World Cup but they might do that in the future.
Clan Destine is 100% right, but it's never going to happen because if we're being honest pretty much all the best players in the world dive constantly.
It's a shame especially in a country like Australia (where i am from) where "soccer" is pretty much the third or fourth tier of football beyond at least 2 other codes.
Simulation gives such ammunition to people who label football as a joke, and there's no legitimate argument against that when you watch these pussies.
Bit of shame Japan went out, but they deserved it really. Paraguay from the start were there to win the game, and Japan sat back hoping for either a goal from a set piece or a long range shot.
Spain vs. Brazil ?
yep
that would be an interesting finalQuote:

I was propa rooting for Japan today, i felt really bad when they missed that penalty. the game was ruthlessly boring, but it was because both teams defended well. Japan have a great team spirit and great energy. i love the way they just keep running after the ball. to bad they went out.
^ arigatou turko!!!
man im gonna shit in komanos luggage, piss in his carry on, and paint a moustache on his passport picture for missing that penalty!! the fack man!! either way if they advanced they would get whooooped by spain
i didnt realize but portugal was/is the no.3 team in the world. is that serious? they fucking blow. ok goalie, some good players in the back no doubt, then above that the only good player is cristiano and nani. simao is ok. deco is past it, and everyone else is bum. tiago starting in the world cup? you know your team is not that great when hes starting in your center mid.
glad they are out.
idk why crisitano didnt just come back further into his own half of the field to get the ball and just dribble. fuck it. messi does that a lot. starts from back and just goes on runs. ronaldo dribbles way less then he used to. hes a dribbler, hes good at it, why stop?
The only time Portugal looked serious was in stoppage time of the second half
Ronaldos nowhere near the player Messi is. Yeah he can dribble, and hes scored some great free kicks, but thats it. Hes a selfish as fuck player. He made no effort last night at all, i no Portugal played pretty shit, but the great players still play their heart out no matter how their team is playing. Its up to them players to raise a team when they are playing poorly, and Ronaldo doesnt do that. He thinks its up to other people, he doesnt run back to help defense and he was easily disposed every time he had the ball last night.
Best player in the world my ass
^exactly. I was laughin every time he dived and the ref didn't give a fuck. He got praised so much that he doesn't think he needs to run anymore.
Its also because hes so overrated that Portugal played bad, they put him alone in front of the spanish defense and the rest of the team was defending, but hes not good enough to score alone, thats why Spain only scored once, but Portugal almost never had a chance to score, except on counterattacks.
YOU GERMAN BASTARD
eeeeewwwwwwwwwwwww that shit is nasttyyyyyy LOLQuote:

I know, lol.
He must have a nice collection of soccer shirts by now.
I have been told by a reporter friend that a story will be going out this Sunday regarding why there were problems with The England Team.
This story had to be put on hold for 2 weeks while England were still playing in the world cup but now it will be sanctioned to go out in the papers on Sunday. Some people already may know this.
Steven Gerrard has been sleeping with his wife's sister (not the 16 year old one that has been reported earlier), and apparently has got her pregnant. The rest of the England team found out about this including John Terry, which is why he had that argument with Fabio Capello, which we already knew about from media coverage (but we didn't know the exact details).
John Terry was upset about Steven Gerrard keeping his captaincy after this incident, especially after what happened to JT. Half the England team is on JT's side and half on Gerrard's side and they both hate eachother. This is why there has been tension in The England team, which is maybe why they haven't played well (and also because they are crap, lol).
One other story that will hit the news is that Rooney slept with a prostitute, and he knows that it will be reported on and therefore, could have affected his play.
I bet Fabio is glad to be away from these bunch of morons after all this hits.
Anyway, if none of this does come out like I have been told, I will look foolish, but who cares, lol. We will see........
Gerrard can do anything he want as long as he doesn't leave Liverpool.
