In Germany there have been a string of poor decisions as a result of video reviews so it won't stop any arguments.

At the end of the day if supporters are judging referees decisions based on replays, then as long as players continue to try and deceive referees then one can understand the argument that officials should be given the same technological tools.It certainly won't be a panacea because subjectivity enters the equation.

With respect, I never advocated that there was any attempt to deceive in relation to the penalty incident.

Thats probably because they fall to the ground at the slightest touch ...

The Voice of Reason In An Otherwise Mediocre World

Their criticism is based on the time that is taken to come to a decision.There is no time limit.

Es war den ganzen Tag lang eine Strafe. Wie Sie sehen können, kümmere ich mich nicht um die Iren.

ITYM "Es war den ganzen Tag eine Strafe. Wie Sie sehen, die Iren interessieren mich gar nicht".

"All day long" is "den ganzen Tag", doesn't need "lang".
"Den ganzen Tag" is a time concept so goes first after the verb.
You don't need "können" in a lot of clauses with this sense, you just say "As you see".
"Sich kümmern um" means to care for, not care about. There are lots of ways of saying you don't give a toss about something, but "ich kümmere mich nicht" means you aren't their hospital nurse or childminder.
Colloquially, you often precede "nicht" with "gar" or "überhaupt" or else you can say "auf keinem Fall". "Nicht" on its own is a bit weak.

Oh, and bollocks, as well.
