Pathetic from Morocco, looked like they were playing a friendly.

I find the best weather is like the best referees - you don't really notice it. Loved those couple of days when it was 20 degrees or so, comfortable in a T-shirt but not too hot or cold. Thankfully I've got an A/C unit. Couldn't be without it now.

Just me who sometimes goes 2 or 3 days forgetting that we've appointed this twat and then have a sinking feeling when they remember?

I don't see the controversy for the Egypt vs Argentina game. Egypt goal rightly ruled out (not for the shirt pull, but because he steps on the guys foot). Salah's pen shout was not a foul. Anyhoo, this Columbia vs Switzerland game is shit.

Actually disappointed that Ronaldo wasn't more upset at FT 😂

Obviously the Balogun ban being overturned is bullshit. FIFA are corrupt. Take that as read. However I don't think incidents like that should be red cards. It was a complete accident and, for me, it can't be serious foul play or endangering an opponent in an instance like this where you're just running or jumping as normal. Fair enough if you attempt a bicycle kick and boot someone in the face. Also if it was a red, Messi should've had one too.

£250k covers Winks' wages for less than a month. We can't have rated him at all.

I do hope he goes on and has a decent career. Especially if we have decent sell on clauses. I do get the feeling that he'll disappear into nothing, either end up in lower leagues or drop out of football altogether, like many wonder kids have done this over the years.

Poor Croatia. It's certainly not clear at all whether that was offside. Goal should have stood and the game would've gone to ET.

Winks

Nah. Look at all the stats.

Empire Metals finally on a bit of a run. It's been a while.

Always looked dangerous for Ipswich against us.

I've been a season ticket holder for about 15 years and watched hundreds if not thousands of games of football. Never knew the offside rule was based on the 'second last opponent'.

Iran's winner ruled out by VAR for offside. What am I missing? They drew the line on the wrong defender?

Properly had enough of it now. Making me snappy. Can't concentrate working. Gagging for Sunday when the temperature drops off a lot. Genuinely questioning how human populations in hot countries ever grew. I've been the least horny I've ever been in my adult life.

Konsa cmon lad that's embarrassing. Loving the referees ignoring this shite.

Feels like this is gonna be what every game is like for us next season.

Wait, is that Ant Middleton X profile not AI?

Never a penalty, that.

Russell Martin would've hated the England performance last night. Bet he was shuddering watching all the expansive attacking football.

Haha wtf are these decisions? Ridiculous red cards.

The sooner he's appointed the sooner he'll be sacked.

To be frank I think having a travel ban from Somalia can only be a good thing. I'd back the same here. However, there must surely be some common sense in allowing the referee into the Country, if he's got all the necessary paperwork and no criminal record.

I'm more baffled by the incompetence of it all. Surely FIFA were aware that the US has a travel ban on certain countries, including Somalia. Did they not think to check whether this referee would be allowed entry? Why were there no conversations beforehand? It's just another egg in the face moment.
