With the Home Nations all failing miserably to make the Euro 2008 tournament the only Brits on the park this time around will be the referees and linesman/assistant referees or whatever they're called these days who have been chosen for this tournament.English ref Howard Webb is one of the chosen twelve whistlers and will be assisted by flag-waving fellow Englishmen Darren Cann and Michael Mullarkey. Scottish ref Craig Thomson has been chosen as a fourth official and if the standard of refereeing displays I've seen in Scotland this season are anything to go by he's lucky to even have been awarded that honour.
Here's a list of the twelve BITB who will infuriate fans at this summer's tournament...
Konrad Plautz- Austria
Kyros Vassaras- Greece
Lubos Michel- Czech Republic
Frank De Bleeckere- Belgium
Roberto Rosetti- Italy
Manuel Mejuto Gonzalez- Spain
Howard Webb- England
Pieter Vink- Holland
Peter Frojdfeldt- Sweden
Herbert Fandel- Germany
Tom Henning Ovrebo- Norway
Massimo Busacca- Switzerland
Be interesting to see which one of this dirty dozen causes the biggest controversy at the tournament. I go for the fella Michel...who's your bets on?
