The Ladies Of Baden Baden

Good to see the various partners and spouses of the England football team are having a grand old time in Germany. On the whole most people regard it with some amusement, though there seems to be an attitude among the various dullards and the human vegetables that make up your average tv pundit panel that they are bringing the game into disrepute and should have been left at home. Bollocks. Nothing like a bit of pagentry and glam to liven up proceedings. Talking of which, a big shout out to my man Sepp Blatter. What a shit this guy is. He issues orders to refs to book people for just about any foul tackle or infringement going and then slags the refs off for losing control of any game in which the miserable, platitudinous 'Fair Play' bollocks he spouts flies out the window and players start hacking, diving, play acting and spoiling at every opportunity. Usually by this point about half a dozen players have been booked for trifling offences and it's a fair bet someone is going to take an early bath at some point. Not saying the refs are blameless, they aren't, but their job would be infinitely easier if they had absolute control over what is or isn't a yellow or red card offence. I'm assuming most of them have a greater understanding of the game than some fat, bald, crooked Swiss tosser in a blazer. It's one thing to stand and fall by your own mistakes, it's another to suffer the same fate implementing the idiotic edicts of a jumped up bureaucrat. There are ways of improving the game, but they certainly won't come from Mr Blatter's flabby gob. There, I feel better already.................
