    suarez incident

    Think this is the worst thing in all this. Not that he did it, depsite clear evidence, but that he has denied he did it (though if it went to court it would be a 100% nailed on conviction) and that his team mates, his captain, his manager, his lawyer, the Uruguayan press and the Uruguayan county...

    suarez incident

    BBC: "Can you comment on the incident with Luis Suarez? Can you comment on what the world saw yesterday?" Diego Lugano: "What incident? I don't know what incident you're talking about. I don't know what incident you're talking about. Are you talking about...

    Video evidence

    Think they should just say the first incidence spotted of shirt pulling in the box by a defender will result in an automatic penalty. It is usually defenders on strikers rather than the other way round in the first instance.

    Video evidence

    If a video referee was watching all the tussling and shirt pulling in the penalty area that would soon put a stop to it all. There would be a rash of red cards and then players would have to stop doing it. Got to the stage now where nearly everyone is doing it and it has got quite ridiculous.

    Video evidence

    Don't think you are reading what I am saying properly limoncello. :) Was just saying that tonight it didn't even need to have interrupted the game. Just tonight. Didn't say it wouldn't interrupt the game in general, just that tonight at half time the incident was identified and that could have...

    Video evidence

    Totally thought it through!! For me I don't think a challenge system would work, as I could see teams using it on occasion just to take the pace out of the game if they were on the back foot. Challenging for the sake of challenging. I think a video ref would be better. Someone scrutinising the...

    Then he gets sent off in the 2nd half. I was just saying tonight it didn't even need to interrupt the game.

    Video evidence

    But as I am saying, tonight this could have been done at half time, upon reviewing the footage. doesn't have to be any challenge system, just a 4th or 5th official/vidoe referee who looks at the game and the slow mo replays and reports anything untoward. The game didn't even need to be stopped...

    Video evidence

    Would love to see it used during a game for certain things. Good example tonight. French player elbows Ecuador player in the face, not spotted. See no reason why he couldn't have been sent off at half time. Anyone else concur?

    suarez incident

    For the last bleedin time, he didn't do it!! It's a conspiracy, just a clash of a shoulder, a photoshop job and an old bite mark from years ago.

    Italy v England here in Bedford

    Think that's the key, Wingy. Had it been Italy versus anyone else there wouldn't have been an issue, but this was England v Italy IN England and Italian fans driving round the city centre celebrating in front of English fans. Add alcohol and it's a recipe for diaster. Maybe it's a good thing...
