Cieran Clark lying on the floor with a head injury, Ref plays on until MANYOO lose the ball. Or Heskey down holding his head and the ref plays on.
with all the money in football now, why cant they have 2 extra linos behind each goal. When the ball comes into the box, one to watch shoving, and one to watch the goal line.

I thought football was a contact sport. What really annoys me is the unwritten rule that "there was contact, it must be a foul...". Run as fast as you can and brush against someone/something 8/10 times you'll lose balance or fall over. Apply that to the football pitch and it is perfectly possible for contact with an opposition player, at pace, and the result be a player on the floor and no foul play to have taken place.Unfortunately this seems to be a concept that has been forgotten by modern football along with Honesty, Sportsmanship and integrity. Honest footballers aren't winners.
Just noticed that Howard Webb is reffing the Champions League semi tonight (An all English team of officials). Will be interesting to see how he performs?
