What language do the World cup ref's speak?
Do all the teams have to be versed in English, or do they pick a ref that can speak both languages of the opposing teams?

if you're watching on a bbc channel via sky, you can press the red button and select audio source "referee" - if it's the same as the rugby

What's wrong with Spanglish then? That's a perfectly good language practiced by most of us on our holidays with great communicative success, surely
Example I overheard last year:
" You oh, b'stardo, bring me a drink oh, pronto!"
Couple that to yellow and red coloured flags and most ref's will get on fine (unless your name is Poll, of course )
