“Wait till you see the replay and your phone starts ringing.”

An American footballer of my acquaintance used to say the above to officials who made particularly bone-headed decisions. That German ref definitely won’t be doing the final of Euro 2012. Nor will his “assistants”. That Spanish goal against Croatia was definitely offside. But hey, we’re used to “bush-league” reffing now, and there seems to be zero quality control of the people doing it.
