Say No To Matrix Structures Cutting Across The Integrity Of Tournaments

Say No To Matrix Structures Cutting Across The Integrity Of Tournaments

Denmark v Serbia & England v Slovenia

It is undoubtedly preferable for England to finish top.
The French would prefer England to finish second.
Referee and VAR are French (as is the referee in the Ser v Den game).

I'm not well versed on the validity or otherwise of French officials but it is the matrix structure we object to... The cross-templating of different countries is not a viable foundation.

The Scots whinged about there being an Argentinian referee on their defeat to Hungary.
There would be a marked improvement in integrity if all match officials came from other continents.

Mixed signals in the markets still at KO - 30.

Don't think England will lose.
But hey...
