World Cup Referee Appointments Thread

Shame for Geiger really, cos there has been a lack of even half decent refs this WC, some of the reffing has been appalling,

I completely agree.

I think that Geiger could still be in with a shout - they took 13 referees for the knockout stages, which contains 16 games. Meaning only a couple of referees will get two games, most will get one each. Geiger had a Last 16 game (France/Nigeria) meaning that it's entirely possible that his second game will be in the final. He's definitely going to referee one of the last 4 games I imagine...

Apparently Kuipers isn't around for the final few matches? Awful decision if true.

Second semi-final will be handled by Cüneyt Çakır.

I like Rizzoli for the final, maybe Irmatov if they want to go non-UEFA. Ricci if Brazil isn't there. Guaranteed FIFA goes with Velasco Carballo though. :D

There are rumors that Velasco (who officiated Brazil-Colombia) has a good chance of officiating the final too.

I suppose the upside to that is that if Brazil make the final we can save ourselves a couple hours of watching football.
