Ireland blunder ref hammered back in Sweden

To be fair to the ref, his linesman was in the perfect position and he should have called a handball, so it was more his fault. I think the ref apart from the handball had an excellent game, for example not giving a penalty when Anelka dived.

If france had any national pride they would offer a replay, chances are they would'nt play as bad as they did that night anyway.As an Irishman I feel gutted to go out the way we did,especially when we conceded a deflected goal in the first leg at croke park aswell.
The decision to seed the play offs was an absoloute disgrace in the first place.
The french are forever going to be called cheats wherever they go now.

There will be no replay, but the ref messed it up and needs to acknowledge this. I don't think he should step down, but an apology would be pretty nice. I don't blame him personally, I blame FIFA for rigging the contest in the first place.

When someones sticking up for you, you don't ***** shout them down you idiot.
We (Ireland) need all the defence we can get if we are to get an unlikely replay.
