ive always stuck up for the uefa cup, even when people call it an "also-ran" cup. but now it seems as if it is a competition for eastern europe clubs, and ucl is for western europe. there is not one club from russia in ucl, yet there are four in uefa cup the only eastern clubs are...

i dont have a local team.

when i remembered alan smith was still at man u, me and my mates had a big discussion about the worst transfers ever made. heres some we came up with: alan smith, leeds to manchester united mateja kezman, psv to chelsea jono woodgate, nufc to madrid, 16m pounds from memory scott...

im really struggling to see where there are grounds to sack Punter. Are we gonna do what the all-blacks do- when we lose a match we sack our leaders? The test of punters captaincy will be the way that Australia bounces back. continued poor performances should be the ground for his...

hehe... you caught me out :p i love reading dodgy rumours. any site on the net that says ronaldinho and shevchenko are heading to celtic is worth reading! however, i only chose those which correspond to the english tabloids, which are probably just as fiction as those. i was most...

OK, its time for more fitbaw rumours: -Following Newcastle's game with Fulham Shepherd gave Souness a rollocking and gave him one week to sort it out. Less than 3 points against Blackburn or even 3 points but poor performance will see Souness sacked. Shortlist of 6 already drawn up for the...

ive always thought highly of juninho, and im not sure why he wasnt linked to any other clubs during the window. i think he is better for value than essien at least. juninho overtook beckham years ago as the dead ball expert and after a win over madrid, he may well have proven it to the rest of...

Im not saying that our developing players shouldnt aspire to play in europe. In the last few years, none of the Australian youth squads have excited me into thinking that our national squad future looks bright. While this sounds a little pessimistic, turning talented players into worldclass...

I also live too far away to view any matches first hand, as I live six hours from the nearest club. Like the EPL, I have decided to support the league as opposed to just one club. However, I do not think the standard of football is as poor as made out. I could compare the football to like...

I gree with his sending off, but i still shouted "willies a wank" as loud as i could. always have always will. cry me a river bout the refs- i follow and support the hawks, but i am a soccer player and until you see the standard of wagga refs we come up against you cant complain. but i still...

i dont go for the greenies anyway. GO THE HAWKS!!! and yes, i know the mallee men beat us last week, but rest assured, don and the boys WILL make the big one, and we will kick your arse when we get there. youse shouldnt have one anyway, the ref was a cock to send mick off Oh, and by the...

heres something for debate: http://www2.sbs.com.au/home/index.php3?id=62855 its about v.d. sar saying minnows like andorra shouldnt be playing international football. in europe this would include azerbajian, faroe islands, cyprus, etc. i spose this would also include the solomons. and...

Sven, you have some serious problems. Guus may not be happy with our boys but at least it isnt as bad as yours. I know that you are a professional manager, and I am a mere school student, but here is some advice: =Stop tinkering with your formation. first it was 4-4-2, then it was 4-5-1...

id really like to stop the depression setting in over our sudden departures, but european WC qualifiers suck. midweek depression is setting in...

shit matt youve started a stampede to the exit door. youse all want us newbies to stay and talk football, but soon there will be no one left! ill miss anyone that i can hold a decent football conversation with who decides to leave the thread. the WC qualifier will be held in november...

Zeljko Kalac Lucas Neill Brett Emerton Mark Viduka (c) (Ahmad Elrich h/t) Tim Cahill (Luke Wilkshire h/t) Scott Chipperfield (Stan Lazaridis 71') Vince Grella Archie Thompson Jon McKain Jason Culina Mark Bresciano if this lineup can only beat solomon islands by a single goal...

i refuse to vote on that poll. there should be a fourth catagory which you like both and hate being asked questions like that. i like league because it is faster, but the internationalism in union makes it good, i support the wallabies more passionately than the kangaroos. and i agree with...

sgp eh? your starting to bring back fond memories from last year... yeah right. anyway, of course ill help. i had trouble in receiving survey results, so just a tip: make some of your shit up if you need to. 1) Team you support: Canberra Raiders (some sympathy please...) 2) State and...

whats shits me most about what has been written in the daily telegraph about brogden is that most of the articles belong in the australian womens weekly or womens day- not a newspaper. i dont care if its a tabloid, this paper commands much circulation, and shit like that shouldnt be passed off...

it doesnt matter how many we have back against quality oppostion, the concerns are that australian defence is not technically good enough. 3-5-2 can be effective against teams such as uruguay in montevideo if we get behind the ball. defence isnt left up to the back line. it starts up front...
