The world cup - FIFA are a disgrace

Ok, so England haven’t been doing well in the world cup. To be honest, couldn’t care less. It was massively over-hyped that we’ll be doing well and like normal, we’ve fallen flat on our faces.

The biggest thing about the world cup that has annoyed me, at first, was the fucking trumpets, however the more games I watched the biggest problem is the sheer amount of dishonesty from the players.

What’s the point of playing a game on a top professional level if all you need to do to win is cheat the best? This leads me on nicely to the officials and the lack of 4th referee. The sheer amount of diving, clutching faces where no faces have been touched, rolling around on the floor only for the players to wave their hands at the ref to attempt to get a player sent off has grown irritating and old very, very quickly.

It’s as if FIFA are happy to promote sheer dishonesty and have systematically hired the shittiest officials with mental difficulties to ref the games.

Take the Brazillian game, they had moments of sheer quality. Small periods of time where they were actually a joy to watch when the lazy bastards actually bothered to put some effort in. Regardless, the 2nd goal that went in against the Ivory Coast should never have happened. In the replay we see the Brazillian guy handball it once, flick it over a couple of defenders and then handball it again against the inside of his arm, before slotting it into the net.

The whole world saw him do on the video reply about 10 times.

The Ivory coast players saw him do it and appealed.

The ref casually jogs along side the Brazilian player with a grin on his face, asks him if he’d hand balled it via a gesture to the top of his arm, ironically exactly in the same place as he actually did hand ball it. To which the Brazillian player lies his as off, no no it hit my chest, the ref grins a little more, just runs on by and the goal stands.

Yeah big fucking joke, why not ask the Ivory Coast just how funny this little incident is. After all it’s only the world cup finals, lets all just cheat and be totally dishonest about it. It’s quite fucking simple really isn’t it? A 4th referee would have seen it happen, the player would have been yellow carded for cheating and the goal disallowed.

A comment from some idiot in the BBC commentary team suggested “there was no way the player could say he hand balled it at that point”. Yeah why not promote a little more dishonesty to the entire nation and all the kids watching. Why not justify the outright cheating by claiming the player couldn’t fucking possibly actually own up and say he hand balled it. The idea of actually admitting what the entire world can see anyway on video replay is obviously an impossible nonsense.

There was another incident when someone called Kaka got sent off towards the end of the match. One could say the Ivory Coast got a little revenge on the Brazilians taking full advantage of the shit officials once again. Kaka already on a yellow card gets run at by an IC player, off the ball. He stands his ground and admittedly sticks a little elbow into the mix to stop the player and they clash. The IC player goes down holding his face after a small elbow dig to the ribs, thrashing around on the floor like an electrocuted salmon. The dishonest cunt.

Then comes the waving of hands to emulate cards from the IC players to attempt to get the guy another yellow and sent off. Guess what, it worked. The ref who saw nothing of the entire incident, his eye-line demonstrated to be positioned completely towards the ball - then proceeds to judge his entire response to the situation on the IC players response and didn’t appear to consult the linesman. Who probably missed it anyway.

Awesome, another result for not having a 4th ref with video evidence. Kaka gets a red card, sent off for an action by the IC player that was obviously designed to do just that. Why run at and eventually straight into another player off the ball in the first place? For a laugh? He now faces at least a match ban that apparently can’t be appealed or overturned - what fucking pathetic and archaic laws, especially as WE CAN ALL FUCKING SEE WHAT HAPPENED ON VIDEO.

I believe the referee is not allowed to view any sort of video replay, what a fucking nonsense. This just strikes me as FIFA absolutely supporting the complete pricks that dishonestly bring this game into disrepute time, after fucking time and the world cup will ultimately be won on who can cheat the best and get away with it.

This behaviour needs to the controlled, curbed and eliminated, FIFA have the power to do this but don’t seem to have either the balls or the desire to do anything about it. Perhaps turning it into a fair, sportsman like game would damage their cash flow as the majority of the complete fucking morons that watch the game might get turned off and actually find something better to do with their lives.

So, please FIFA, you absolutely bunch of greedy, selfish, twats - Stamp out this unsportsmanlike nature of the pussy, dishonest, overpaid, complacent losers you have playing the sport at the “top level” you are ultimately responsible for governing, so people can actually get on and play a fair game without the falling over, cheating, baiting the ref, swearing at the officials and general shit attitude.
