This has become a game of "we know he screwed up, now how can we spin this to sound decent". I want to see him sweat. I want him to admit that he called a foul on something like breathing wrong, or wearing socks. I want him to have to wear a tutu - no, a PINK tutu! - to the rest of the matches!

*Giggle* the tutu would be AMAZING.
Honestly the most that will happen with the game is Findley could be permitted to play vs. Algeria following his second yellow and one of the Slovenians could be given a ban on their game with england for the RED card he should have gotten.
And even then that's unlikely. I don't know, do refs ever talk about the game? I'm sure he'll have to answer to FIFA (and probably has, we just don't know what they'll say or decide) but I'm not familiar enough to know if they talk to media as a rule.
FIFA's had some other struggles, and just recently banned teams from practicing on the pitches because they're having trouble keeping grass down. Dunno if it's SA's "fault" or not but but this isn't the smoothest of cups.
