having seen the standard of norwegian football, they may have a point.
andy gray hates all referees and disagrees with their every action, so who gives a fuck what he thinks?
It's not just the Scands he's targeted - basically if it's not covered by SkySports it's not big enough.

Even if they did get a top Italian ref for example, they'd still be screaming blue murder if he didn't give the penalties either.

Didn't Italy's top ref ludicrously (yet hilariously) send off Darren Fletcher yesterday?

Haha, well done Sky - just broadcast Dogbra saying 'it's a fucking disgrace!' The funny thing was that when it happened live they had the camera on him but the volume turned down. Then about 10 minutes later they showed a replay of it and the volume was turned down again, until just before he said "fucking disgrace" when they turned the volume up. I can't help but wonder if someone did it deliberately.

I was pretty appalled at the Sky commentators as well. The bloke that interviewed Hiddink was blatantly trying to lead him in to saying something bad about the ref and the decisions, fair play to Hiddink as he refused to and acted perfectly. Jamie Rednapp was shocking, saying all Norwegians are shit referee's - I wonder how many Norwegian football matches he's seen in his life?
Then they pretty much claimed there was a conspiracy at UEFA to keep Chelsea out of the final.
When this kind of shit happens we all go on about the ref's and the players but I think its about time the TV commentators started getting some flak for their continual shit stirring and outrageous comments. If we're going to hold players and refs to account, why not the TV companies and their commentators that cover the games?

Sky Sports punditry has annoyed me for some while, I don't really pay attention to it. - I really hope Richard Keys is forced to say what waffles on about.
They need a scoop so Sky Sports sensationalise everything™ (Rupert Murdoch) - the fact they repeated Drogba's little tirade proves this - live directors/editors know what they're doing and that was deliberate.
The whole referee nationality argument baffles me as I've already mentioned.
