Graham Poll is a good ref. I think a lot of the things that happened is unfair to blame it all on him. Those Aussies are a dirty bunch.

I agree that Poll's one of the best European referees, but I agree with Chris as well that he had a total off-day and we won't see him back this World Cup. This will follow him for the rest of his life.

Graham Poll - the referee who can give 3 yellow cards, before handing over a red one.

Ukraine - Tunisia was promoted to:

THE WORST MATCH OF THE TOURNAMENT SO FAR

Yeah, I still can't get over that. How crazy.

And isn't he the ref who made so many wrong calls during the Italy vs (surprise!) Croatia game in the WC in 2002? I believe back then I wished he'd just drop dead. :x

My memory's not THAT good, lol.

I do believe you know Hiddink who knocked Italy out with South-Korea at that same WC 2002.

You know that I just grumbled out loud when I read that sentence?

I'm going to google it, I am preeetty sure it was him. I don't forget the names of people I wish dead.

edit.. just checked. Indeed it's him.

I honestly do not know how he is outside of WC games, but from what I have seen, I REALLY am not fond of him.

Just when I was about to hit the submit reply button, I noticed you already found it. Google!

Graham Poll is a great referee in the European Cup matches during the season. And from what I've heard, I think Neil agrees with that, he's one of the better Premiership ones as well.

Although our commentator did say Poll is not very fond of Viduka.

Hehe..

Well, I'll take your (and Neil's) word for that. I mean you almost HAVE to be a good ref if you're a referee in the WC, right?

But I do wonder what happens to him during these big matches..
