Was rather pathetic.
Good old fashioned cheating like that should see Henry banned from the rest of the World Cup tournament.

It will be interesting to see what the fallout is from Robbie Keane stating that the fix was in. I know in the u.s. if a player criticized the organization (NFL, NBA, MLB, etc.) like that they would get HAMMERED with fines and bans.

This from a Swedish newspaper:
“There are approximately 80 million Irishmen around the world. We guarantee they all feel pretty bad today. But I sincerely hope there are three Swedes that feel even worse.
“They are Martin Hansson and (referee’s assistants) Stefan Wittberg and Fredrik Nilsson.”
“There will be no World Cup for Ireland and I assume that Team Hansson has also forfeited it’s right to continue to take charge of major international matches. Anything else would be a further insult to the Irish nation.”

The refs will be there.
Remember: no matter how bad the refs are. They're the refs and are absolutely perfect. Just like in the NFL.

TIme for FIFA to give the win the Ireland methinks.
Then, seeing as we beat both France and Italy shortly after their World Cup Final, they might like to hand the World Cup to Scotland

I still remember the 1984 "hand of God but head of Maradona".
That was even more blatant as it was the hand that put the ball in the net. At least Henry admitted what he did, and it was possibly even reflex.
Well internetional football is 99% nationalism and 1% sportsmanship and I remember how much the Irish laughed when Maradona cheated, so feth em. Karma!

Perhaps this will finally convince people that football needs a proper 4th ref, as they have in rugby.
Not that I really give a monkies, as I don't follow football at all.
Though I can imagine the pain that something like this gives fans. Tough break.

Bah. If we get a replay the French will just beat us fairly. That's my prediction.
