I have to say I agreed with his decision. 'Glad England are out... Bring on Wales!!!
'currently supporting France, by default...
The keeper was clearly impeded; an arm went over his shoulder preventing him to jump... the ref. was right to deny England that goal. The portuguese press agrees unanimously...
You can also mail him direct(just in case he doesnt want to put the comments on his feedback board)
Let him have it........

you're right. those goals are disallowed every week in the premiership. Also, the commentators and press never mentioned the goal line clearance by England that was 'probably' behind the line. They never even showed the replay.
Also, any Englishman should recall that their greatest footballing moment (66) came because of a dubious referee decision.
it also seems to me Terry was offside before he fouled the keeper.
Goodye England...
I was rooting for England but keeper was mugged.
Oh well, at least we don't have to look at any more of those pasty, ugly guys on the screen...God, they have to be the worst looking fans in Europe (one degree above the Russians).
Stupid England fans...takes so little to raise their hopes so high, takes even less to make them think they "was robbed."
Campbell's only possible defense is saying he didnt press down with that arm, which is like saying "my hand was just near the ball, not on it."
Glad England have a scapegoat for their mediocrity again, the denial continues.

The ball came off the crossbar in front of Terry. If the ball is in front of a player he is onside.
Do you guys really think there was a foul, or are you trying to shut-up the incredibly biased English fans? Terry jumped about 5 inches straight up, and Ricardo ran through him, elbows up, trying to reach the ball. If his arm came down it was because his body was coming down after the keeper had knocked him. He wasn't responsible for the contact, he held his position and jumped straight up for the ball. Clearly not a foul.

The simple fact is that 99 times out of 100 if there is any contact with the keeper while the ball is in the air in the goal box, it will be called a foul. They have that protection, there was surely contact.
If david wouldn't have shanked his penalty kick into the stands, this wouldn't be such a problem...don't get me wrong, I love david, he's a great player, but that's when you need to step up big. The goalie could've just layed down in front of him and let him kick it if he was going to do that.
My issue is not with the disallowed goal - although the goalkeeper did dive at Terry, not the other way round.
My issue is that the ref did not stop play to allow the English players a few seconds to get back onto the pitch. This is just sloppy refereeing and / or biased decision maiking, thus my reasoning for sending him a little abuse!
On another note, my best friend is French and we are both chuffed to bits to see the poor old French get a kicking from the mighty Greeks!!
England loses and blames the referee !!!!!!
Stop blaming the referee and begin the blame with your non-existant captain.
Um, I wouldn't go around blaming referees if I was English, considering what happened to Venus Williams the other night.

Did you watch the game? Were you sober? Do you know anything about football?
Hey, its a f***ing RUNNING website. Get your own queer littl soccer site. And yes it is "Soccer." Not "football." Ask Mike Ditka and Jack Lambert to clarify the difference for you.
Hey, what is "f***ing running"? Am I missing out?
