  1. That prediction. 11.6 degrees outside at 6:30, probably in single figures by now. Gonna be a cold night if its that cold already.
  2. Sshh! We have to trick foreigners into believing we're all like Mick Dundee
  3. Actually, if he can replicate his track record with no-hope clubs like Fulham, he could do well with a relatively no-hope country. Give him a big national job where the country is expected to do more than avoid embarrassment and he'll fuck it up. On another note, why don't the FA appoint Jonathan Foreigner again? Over in Australia we've also got a dearth in terms of good domestic managers, probably even worse than England and we've been able to punch above our weight by appointing European managers.
  4. EURO 12 sounds a right laugh then. As a rule, us antipodeans root for English national teams, no matter what the sport, to fail
  5. We absolutely must, must, win the FA Cup. I'm not having those smug bastards get one over us on the merit of their 'history'. For me, I rank them in the following order of importance: 1. FA Cup 2. CL 3. League Though, if we beat them 11-0 at Anfield I don't really care what happens at Wembley.
  6. It's Formula One, at the risk of offending any fans, who cares about motorsport? Plenty things more exciting than watching cars go really fast around a circle several dozen times. Anyway, what does this mean? We give each other money? We promote each other?
  7. Start Torres and hope he can keep his form going; bring on Drogba if thats not the case.
  8. Tracking back Honesty and empathy are traits I value very highly.
  9. Why do we need Hazard and co when we have Kalouda and co? More seriously, what are we going to do with Hazard? Ramires-Mata-Marin Bench: Sturridge Kalou Generic Latin American attacking midfielder Where is the space for him? He'll want to be starting every game so don't tell me that he takes Kalou's/Generic Latino's spot on the bench
  10. Forget Queensland, you should come to NSW Other advice that Spike failed to give you is to treat any spider or snake or whatever other nasty you may come across as lethal- avoiding getting bitten is more important than getting rid of the thing. And you've chosen probably the best time to visit Australia, it's not cold in Queensland in May, nor is it insanely hot like it would be during the summer months. Regardless of the temperature, make sure you've got sunscreen on as UV here can be pretty brutal even in the winter months. The beaches, in particular are brilliant around April-May; water temperature is perfect at this time of year so take advantage! However, if you see a beach with this sign: Steer clear of it. Also, you can't leave here without sampling some kangaroo meat, great tasting stuff. With regards to your football-inquiries, if you can find a British or European pub, football will most likely be shown on TV, if not, the CL final will be shown at 4:45 AM on free-to-air TV. I've never been to a specific football pub, and I live in the biggest city in the country, so the chances aren't great of there being a specific pub in a smallish city like Gold Coast. It's largely academic anyway, as Spike says, I'm pretty sure no pubs are open that late/early.
  11. It's not what we think that matters. The man upstairs (that's Roman, by the way ) deems it a failure if we go trophyless. Winning both finals is a must to have a great season, I can't stomach letting that mob of idiots from Anfield win a cup double, nor can I stomach another season in the CL of so close yet so far.
  12. Drogba has a spankingly good record at Wembley though.
  13. That's all very well and good, but Drogba starts at Wembley and Munich.
  14. I'm off to sleep. Good night everyone
  15. Damn it, my stream died when Malouda scored
  16. Good shift from Sala tonight. Great assist for Torres.
  17. Thank fuck someone has shaved that disgusting haircut off of Malouda's head.
