Default Spanish Refereees

A Spanish referee's stupid decision to award Russia a penalty for an offence clearly outsie the box would appear to have cost England the chance for Euro 2008 qualification. Another reason to add to my list of reasons for not moving there...

Roit. Let me get this right....

A Spanish referee makes a bad call and you come to the Spain forum (you appear not to be a regular) and bitch about it? Is that about right?

Probably a bad decision, but only balanced out Roony`s offside goal.
England had every chance to win, but they still lack the killer instinct, or do they do it on purpose to scare the crap out of us ?

I will move it to Siesta time. ;-)

Something didn't go right?

And it's all the fault of the Spanish?

Ever thought of moving to Spain......you'd fit right in here!

If it means that the English football hooligans don't get to wreck the towns and cities of Austria and Switzerland, then it was probably a great decision.

Now now, England football fans are no worse than other countries. It seems to be a European thing to hype it up when the English do it though.

It wasn't too long ago that an Italian policeman was killed during football riots there. How quickly people forget

If I decided not to live or to travel to England for the stupidity of a english, a long time ago that nor I would want to live or to travel to England, then I would be stupider and simpler than that person when believing that all the englishmen are as this person. Stay in Dubai

If the twits flew, it would be always of night

Type something, anything, then run it through Babelfish (other free on-line translation sites are available) into Spanish, then translate it back to English and see how it comes out!
