The Man On The Line Gets No Better!

I've just finished watching France -v- Ireland in the World Cup Qualifying Playoff and before I moan about bad officials again I would just like to say well done to the Irish for a great game, and I would have much rather seen you in the World Cup than France. You outclassed the French for the most part of the game, and deserved your place so much more than the French.

Here we go...

Thierry Henry is a CHEAT! A deliberate hand ball knocks Ireland out of the World Cup - BUT (and even though the ref couldn't see) the man on the line had a clear view of the incident. FIRST he missed two French players in off-side positions when the free kick was taken, and SECOND he had clear site of Henry handball it not once, BUT TWICE!!!!

The man on the line should be suspended.

The man on the line gets it wrong all too often.

The man on the line GETS NO BETTER!

A good arguement for video goal line technology?

Much respect to the Irish.

I agree, but it's Henry who should be hanging his head. Before the game I was supporting France because I thought they'd play more entertaining football. But IReland were far more deserving, and that result is a travesty.

One consolation for the Irish, at least they don't have to put up with the EU's imposition of a monopoly bookmaker like the French do. As this comparison http://tiny.cc/JTvyE shows, they lost out by nearly 50% in the betting market, which is frankly ridiculous. The www.right2bet.net petition is trying to abolish these monopolies. It's only fair, please sign it.
