    He saw the opportunity and he took it. It's within the bounds of refereeing/linesman error.

    I think that only if it's something dangerous or offensive should there be a possible sanction afterwards.

    What we should be complaining about now is the ridiculous "top seeded team gets to play home first" rule for the next playoffs, which is clear moving of the goalposts.

    He offended the Irish nation, does that count?
    Whatever about the home and away legs for the seeded players its the fact that if we qualified we would have moved up in the seedings orselves and (hopefully) got a worse extra team than us in the group

    If the ref didn't see it, it's fair game. That's football, suckers!

    If he was punished now it would be an embarrassment for FIFA. They would have to replay the match or re-instate us instead of France.

    It could happen to any of us.

    As much as I would love that, It was never going to happen, but a match ban would have been enough, at least someway fair, instead of saying that he did nothing wrong and as long as the ref doesnt see it its legal
