Nope, they haven't mentioned that Angola fact yet. I'm sure if it continues like this they will.

This is one of the strangest matches I have ever seen.

What happened to Chisanga??

blgoblue2 · 06-11-2006, 05:49 PM

so what determines stoppage time?

bababui · 06-11-2006, 05:50 PM

Players going down to injuries,,the ball going oit of bounds

bababui · 06-11-2006, 05:51 PM

But the referee on the field has complete control and can basically do what he wants

blgoblue2 · 06-11-2006, 05:51 PM

someone in a booth keeps track of it?

2) He's fallen asleep

3) The plumbers have arrived

I'm going for number 3 myself, although 1 or 2 is possible.

And yes, this is not only strange game but awful to watch.

The referee on the field has two watches, one which he stops for certain things. Then coming up to the end of the half he will tell the fourth official how many minutes to add. Then that will be shown on the board.

blgoblue2 · 06-11-2006, 05:57 PM

Sdpm100 · 06-11-2006, 05:58 PM

See you tomorrow for Australia/Japan at 2pm UK/9am ET.

I think today we were the in-game entertainment at times. Not that that's bad or anything of course.

I'm back. The entire city of Auckland had a power cut that lasted for 5 hours or so. Should be all present and correct for tonight

And the bloody plumbers never turned up. I guess not having any electricity to do anything is a fair enough excuse though
