Looks like he's on the way home....
Blatter has given his performance the big thumbs down!!
They just had a feature on the news, listing his catalogue of failure:
1. issuing three yellow cards to Simunic before sending off the Croatian player
2. missing two stonewall penalties;
a) rugby tackle on Viduka - Simunic again, so it could have been four yellows!!
b) deliberate hand ball
3. blowing the final whistle as Australia scored the winning goal
In addition, Harry Kewell was offside when he scored the second equaliser, but I think that we'd all like to gloss over that one as justice was seen to be done!!
So he's the best referee in the Premiership is he?!!.....
It doesn't say much for the overall standard now does it!!
I'm sure all the fans on the terraces will issue him with the appropriate ridicule in the new season!

The main one being, why was an English Premier League ref allowed to take a match with several English-based players in it...

TBH that would apply to many matches

Therefore the useless git shouldn't have been there

We all know there's only one decent Referee around and now he's too old to referee international games. 



On the subject of referees though, is no-one else getting p
