This petition makes sure that the Norwegian referee Tom Henning Ovrebo will not referee at the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
-) He incorrectly ruled out a goal for offside at the Euro 2008 match Romania vs. Italy. There was also criticism for a penalty shot given to Romania at the ending moments of the game. Afterwards, Ovrebo admitted he had made a mistake during the game.
-) After his benefits in the second leg of the 2009 Champions League semi-finals between Chelsea and Barcelona, where he was not giving three penalties, everybody should know that Tom Henning Ovrebo should not referee international games any more. We wont let him ruin the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa!!!
PLEASE DON'T USE SWEAR WORDS. HE IS NOT AN IDIOT, HE JUST HAS THE WRONG JOB. THIS SHOULD BE A SERIOUS PETITION HANDED TO FIFA.

The focus of this effort remains on the necessity for accuracy at the highest levels of professional football. I am currently organizing the collected feedback to ensure that FIFA understands the broad dissatisfaction with recent officiating standards. Consistency is the foundation of fairness in this sport and our collective position reinforces that standard.

The groundswell of agreement regarding the standard of officiating in international football has grown beyond what I initially imagined. This collective response suggests that the need for consistency and transparency in these matches is a concern shared by many people who value the integrity of the game.

He makes way too many mistakes for such big games. Keep him away from South Africa.
