    People can complain about the ref but Germany played the game. Maybe I'm old fashioned but that matters to me.

      Oh I get one voted for telling the truth? Either the ref was corrupt or inept? Which?

      No - you got one voted for making a dumba$$ remark. You might find this hard to believe but you're not always funny. We lost, deserved to lose (disallowed goal or not) get over it.

        I was upset and had had a few beers, my disappointment manifested itself in a rant. I am completely over it and normal service will be resumed! Thanks for your time :)

          So now that England are winning at cricket, the whinging Poms are whinging at football? I felt sorry for England at half time, it should have been 2-2. But after all is said and done, that just means you would have lost 4-2. I've seen several goals like the one Klose scored - all at school. And football is not even a major sport here.

          Cheers, Vikram. (Got my troika of CCCs!)

          You can't assume that, the Germans' final two goals came off the counter attack because England were forced to push everyone forward in order to try and make up the goal that they were not given earlier. This meaning the English defence would have been able to stay back a little more during the set plays in the second half. Hence why DD says it would have been an entirely different game.

            Yeah you make a fair call on the disallowed goal though dont blame the germans for the ref Its _yet_ another case where FIFA need to pull their collective heads in and employ the video referring system that so many other sports use - and they need to crack down on rubbish diving - its making a farce out of the game Bryce

            Yes, something like a review of any suspected dives after the game and if it is deemed to be a dive then hit that player and that club with a financial penalty. That would be a start at least and wouldn't 'slow the game down' like so many people are worried about.

              As a Luton supporter you should be used to the disappointment by now - god knows I am as a Burnley fan for nearly 40 years!! :)
