    The thing that makes football great is that the little guy can win.

    You dont really get that in most team sports. Its almost always going to go by the numbers.

    But teh way the game is now, its become increasingly clear that the instructions are that the big nations, with their big television budgets are always to be favoured and decisions should be made to ensure their benefit.

    The Scotland goal gets chalked off and then retrospectively they try and find a reason. Initially the official line is there is a foul. Eventually that gets changed to offside.

    There is nothing as clear that the game is rigged as that.

    He’s not interfering with the play and he barely even touched the GK.

    The fact the refs can’t even decide why they want to call the goal off.

    The other thread is stupid, the ref gifted Spain a goal because a goal that shouldn’t have stood got disallowed on the other end.

    And every comment that is literally and factually wrong, is upvoted. Insane stuff

      Read my post.

      The point, and which should be clearly apparent, is that its irrelevant whether the goal should have stood or not. The point is that the clear direction to the match officials was that Spain needed to win and the process by which the goal was disallowed clearly demostrates this corruption.

    You mean when the United Kingdom freed them from the French jackboot because they were incapable of defending themselves.
