It is always great to see artistic people getting the most out of software such as Photoshop. Ever met somebody that says something along the lines of "It must be true - it was in my paper". These types of people potentially will believe anything should the evidence they are shown and the source of where it came from seem viable. I am not saying that anybody would be stupid enough to believe the photo above but if it was less obvious and lets say a believable photo appeared in The Times and another appeared in The Sun does it mean that The Times must be correct and not the one in The Sun due to the hierachry that the media seem to have on the population?

According to Ukraine coach Oleg Blochin the ball was at least a metre over the line so there is another perception and again from a biased viewpoint. Speaking as one of the many that saw it live on TV, when it happened I had no idea if it had gone over or not - it was just too close to tell. Anybody that could catergorically say that it was over the line as it happened is surely lieing. Even on the first video replay view I was still not sure - it was only when we saw the next view that it became clear that the whole of the ball had just about cleared the goal line.

It is nice to see England's quarter-final opponents causing a chuckle or two and mainly through the man himself Mario Balotelli who is up to his old tricks. In the game against Ireland he was gagged by a team mate when apparently using a whole host of expletives. When asked what he was saying his team mate responded with "I did not have a clue as he was swearing in English". It is also nice to see Balotelli taking training so seriously - what would this country think of him if he was playing for England? Personally, a joker in the pack especially in an environment such as the Euro's must be a light relief for everybody and I would welcome it.
