Fair comment. Out of the 32 refs - I would say 10 are worth anything. The ref in yesterdays England-Sweden match was brilliant. The biggest problem is FIFA tries to get refs form all over the world, with varying styles of play - the all officiate as "the same" Euro refs generally allow more tackels without cards and while they may call a foul, do a great job at calling WHAT THEY SEE. Latin refs are an embarassment to the sport. They call what they think they saw, like cards, and the ever so Latino trait - flopping like a fish. (Of which Italy shares too)
I think they need to pick the best 8-12 refs who are similiar in what they call, not the country or region they are form to make it "fair". And pay them 3 times the amount, considering you can lop off the usless 20 or so guys out there.
Also want to point out todays refs were equally as good. The funny thing is any person can watch soccer for the first time and can easily see what refs are good and which ones are bad, hence this issue.

Sometimes its hard to judge what was a foul from a distance, but I feel that they need to give the whistle a break.

You, sir, have been booked for that statement and sent off. You cannot post in the next match.
