To me, it's commitment.
It's commitment to the World Cup.
We're committed to the World Cup, and I like to see that in other people.
Oh, wow.
It's freezing.
Yeah.
What about in terms of innovations, the ref camp?
The only issue for me, and Pete, we've talked about this before, is that as a referee, you're basically making the runs of the world's worst midfielder, aren't you?
Okay, you don't want to be too near the ball, you don't want to be too far away from the ball, you don't want to get in the way.
So if you're trying to get that perfect shot, Sid, on ref cam...
Like, do you want to be looking at the goal or do you want to be checking for offsides?
Do you want to be looking?
he is in the middle of the goal and this is the danger for me that he's going to start thinking I could get a really good ref cam here if I get in the right position he's going to start thinking about his ref cam he's going to be thinking ref cam before you know it he's going to get hit up the arse by a shot keep your eyes out for this this is going to happen this is going to happen I just think sometimes right even if he peels away kind of like just far enough out you think about Van Basten 88 right that's far enough out the ref could be there yeah yeah
Imagine how many of the greatest goals in history ruined by a referee.
But even Maradona, he's in referee territory.
86.
In fact, thinking about that, the referee in 86 in the Aztec Stadium has done an amazing job of at no point getting in the way of Diego Maradona because he's gone all around the pitch.
The only thing I should say about this, I don't want to praise the referee in 86 too much, because he did miss a handball.
Yeah, before he sets up, there's a really obvious foul.
So actually, the referee's had a nightmare.
