The referee's so far.

Refs so far have been fairly reasonable, a few questionable decisions but on the whole these have been minor. A couple of yellow cards brandished a little too harshly also eg Gerrard and Ronaldo. Good to see them cracking down on time wasting offences though. As usual some problems with offsides but nothing that has really mattered. Watch this space however, there are bound to be some bad calls sometime.

The worst ref has probably been Rodriguez who took charge of the england game. He made some 'interesting' decisions against Peter Crouch, and at times some 'interesting' decisions all round. But still wasn't a performance worth whinging about too much.
