Seeing the proper control of a game of rugby underlines massively how the referee gets the proper respect from players. The recent World Cup games bring home to anyone with an ounce of sporting acumen that for any contest to be entertaining and exciting, the official in charge should be empowered yet not the focus of play.
In football, the rules for the officials are so very different. Instead of respect for the laws and for the officials, footballers are - most of the time - complete cunts and whinging twats. The abuse and anger directed at and shown to referees is appalling, and the overpaid idiots seem to think they are above any sort of control.
The refreshing approach adopted by the rugby world is a stark reminder of just how low the football world has lost the fucking plot, and deserves every single mess and dollop on controversy that arises - and these are considerable!
Well done, Rugby, fuck off Football. Sadly, the financial rewards are in the wrong sphere, so if ever there was an example of how life is unfair, and how standards are screwed up beyond all recognition, then this helps us all to understand that.
Football is fucked.
