Well, its truly official - international football tournaments are just another fuckin Eurovision song contest. For all those not in the know, the Eurovision song contest is basically an event where every country in Europe is represented by a singer (or singers). They sing their song (which is often crap) and all the other countries set scores out of 10 for them. Of course its totally political with each country just giving the best scores to their closest friends rather than anything to do with the talent of the singer.
Thats is exactly whats happening with these poxy international football tournaments. In the last World Cup, Korea got amazingly far - screwing over the likes of Italy on the way who got a shedload of bullshit decisions against them. Of course it wouldn't be anything to do with Korea being co-hosts. Now we have this fuckin poxy tournament. Tons of free kicks to Portugal that were just pathetic to say the least, then, right at the end, one of our defenders scores a bloody excellent goal, but oh wait ! The refs disallowed it - wow what a fuckin surprise, the hosts have another chance. Not only that, but while England are celebrating the goal, that piece of shit ref allows the Portugese to kick the ball out and run up the field in an attempt to score one back so it puts us out instantly.
They didn't manage to do it, but that bastard made sure they had as much help as possible to win. Of course, typical England story, we lose on penalties. Oh and real classy move by the ref to let that wanker goalkeeper walk upto Beckham and give him a load of shit before he takes his penalty - real cute.
So yeah, you won't find me shedding a tear if I hear any news on that ref getting stabbed to death outside the stadium. Oh wait, I take that back - I'm bound to with the laughter.
I wouldn't have minded if Portugal had actually won honestly, well done, maybe in another couple of years for our guys. But going out like that is just fuckin sick and a sad day for football when its all about being the host if you want to progress. Thankfully club football hasn't deteriorated into that kind of shit yet. The day it does is the day I stop watching it. What a fat load of shit, I hope the Czechs get to the final and fuckin crucify the wankers !
Sorry if anyone is upset at any comments I'm making, but I'm offloading it all on here cause I'm not gonna start pumping it into Jul's ears when she gets on. And my sympathy goes out to Sol Campbell - he works his ass off for England and thats twice hes had a goal disallowed for pathetic bullshit reasons. Sorry guys, but until we're the hosts, we're not winning jack shit.
