Jesus wept - how much have the cheating Czechies bunged the ref? I've seen some poor decisions in my time, but this guy is either the worst ref in the world or bent as a 9 euro note. If one more...
https://tinyurl.com/mscustz3 I've just seen this in a 'related story' hidden at the bottom of a BBC News page - so it must just have happened. Why is the MSM not reporting this - surely we should have...
What on earth has the BBC done with the feeds from the EURO matches - the pictures (via Sky) are horrid and blurry - barely SD quality let alone HD. Fortunately I also have RTE satellite pictures,...
