it isn't matter where the umpires comes from, but the decision that they made! yes, so many wrong calls during CO 07, but in KO 08, it was too much.
LOL...another "solid" reply from this guy here! Yes....so many wrong calls during the CO 07, but, its okaay.....they were justified. In KO 08, its not justified...because Lin Dan lost? I have to really take my hats off !
LOL... yeah, as long as only fans like him have this attitude. For the sake of the game, I hope NO other countries will start/continue adopting this biased officiating. It really does ruin the game and enjoyment for us fans.
There's a vid in the Video Sharing thread that counted how many bad line calls & faults in CO 2007 = 4 or 5. NONE were overruled by umpire. That caused lost of points for LCW. To avoid bias, umpire should not be same country with any player playing. In KO 2008, 4 bad line calls, 3 over ruled by umpire in LD's favour. Only one was not. Compare no of pts LD lost & LCW lost. But that's discussion is for other threads. Badmania, I was laughing away too when I read this guy's post... and they say we're bias...hmmm LHI, played well, was calm in the midst of the chaos his coach was involved... good for him
OMG...I have never see such a person like you...You can turn around all the wrong things to right things..What the nonsense are you talking about..Ok,then every Super Series can have unfair linescall this year for the sake of the players to gain the ranking points..So,LYB is actually very noble by doing like this to help his own country players???
haiz u cannot decide who the best only by looking at the first set......sometimes even if u won easily in the first set it does not mean that u will win the match.Many players who won easily in first set will also lose the game.Anything can happen in badminton u know It depends on who is the better player on that day as well as luck too.It is just my opinion =X
Indeed, anything can happen in a match. Lin Dan lost several times to Park Sung Hwan and also to other lower ranked opponents like Boonsak Ponsana in the Singapore Open 2007. Does this imply that those players are better than Lin Dan?
Although I promised myself to stay out to prevent myself from being banned, but after reading your post, I cannot stand it. What do you mean in KO it is to much? So the bad line calls in CO were justified? And the KO's were not? What logic are we using here? Don't you turn around and say its BWF's fault! So just because BWF imposes a rule to limit the number of entrants per country, China has to cheat? And I thought your logic in your prior post was bad
Ever heard of 'slow starters'? Ever heard of low stamina (although not in this case, but just as an example)? Ever heard of weak mental strength (again, not in this case but an example)? Ever heard of pressure getting to your head? Ever heard of finally finding a weakness in your opponent? Ever heard of strategy?
