England were feckin rubbish in that half. No imagination, no depth, and Rooney playing like he's got a brick up his arse. Not one single shot - on target or otherwise from England!

"Rooney is struggling to settle into this game. He should have been on the bench."

I think Roy's thinking that Rooney needs to play at some point as he needs to sharpen him up for the possible quarters.

And I'd rather have Walcott and Carroll as impact subs as they've proven they can deliver in that respect.

Keep the faith.

Look at the reply. They stop the film the moment the ball starts travelling back in the opposite direction - and you don't see the whole of the ball past the goalpost. It wasn't a goal.

I do wonder what those touch line refs actually do! The ball was definitely over but it's obscured by Terry's boot rapidly closing in on it!

In actual play, things happen so quickly. I referee myself, and know I make mistakes, but I expect teams to believe I give what I see, & am impartial. My first impression, watching on TV, was a goal, but a replay could equally have proven me wrong.

"Rooney is struggling to settle into this game. He should have been on the bench."

Wayne Rooney is overrated. I remember an England player in a similar vein to Rooney and Alf Ramsey kept on including him in the side when he was clearly a liability, so much that when he eventually got the ball all the England supporters used to start doing donkey brays! The player in question was Roy Macfarlain.

I always thought he was ok. A far better pick than , say, Carragher in 2010. But, when I see Geoff Thomas picked for England, can't understand why Stephen Hawkins wasn't capped.

i also ref in northern league have help with linesmen only me sunday league where you arny get one look, what gets me in this tourny see how many linesmen wait till the ref gives his decision before they signal , the way we playing is deep milners been covering glen johnson so not much product cross wise ,bit like the way italy have for years sit back then try to hit,problem is we dont give enough choices on the break.

totally agree about the offside. the guy who played the ball was in offsdie position when original ball was played forward. it wasnt aimed for him but it doesnt matter as he was the first attaker to touch it after the pass therefore was active. ok the ball did cross the line but he was offside anyway so justice was done.

That's a sticky one. The guy was in an offside position at one point in the play but he wasn't flagged for it as the linesman had no way of knowing if he would have been the recipient of the ball. The pass was made and the guy who eventually received the ball was onside at the moment the ball was played forward - that's the rule. If everyone who is ever in an offside position is flagged for it the game would be stopped every 5 minutes for a free kick.

The Ukrainians scored a goal that wasn't given, it happens, as we well know from the Germany game 2 years ago. The difference now is that goal-line technology is being trialled at this tournament and I think we'll see less and less of this type of incident in the future.
