Just watched England draw 1-1 with Ukraine. Disappointing result but could have been much worse. What really annoyed me was that the referee gave so many free kicks and yellow cards against us for flailing arms. Indeed Gerrard ended up being sent off after being booked earlier for "use" of an arm. That's another thing, we can't Tackle any more! He took the damned ball FFS.
Can players go up to challenge for a ball without putting their arms wide for balance? Looks like they are going to have to find a way of doing so, or get penalised. Defoe scored a GREAT goal early doors but it was chalked off for an "arm offence"! Please referees, let us play.
Anyway, a point won rather than lost in the circumstances. Good old Frank saved us with another penalty. San Marino next, then a tough gig in Poland. Over and Out. Comments welcome.
