A spokesman of the Bush administration wouldn't confirm, nor deny that mr. Ivanov, the refferee in the clash last night between Holland and Portugal, was offered the job as Chief of Staff of Guantanamo Bay.
An anonymous informant brought the news in the open shortly after mr. Ivanov blew his last whistle.
A relative of mr. Ivanov, who wants to remain unknown, stated that if mr. Ivanov accepts the job, first thing he would like to change are the orange prison costumes. He said he prefers yellow overalls and red pointed caps.
