welcome to the shite umpiring cup all teams will now do paper sissers rock to decide games due to unavailability of any umpire with eyes

f**k that, how about we just scrap the games altogether and the referees can just play chess between themselves

Yeh, to be honest it probably was a red card (by FIFA's stupid rules anyway). But how about that tackle by the Ghanaian? That was a clear red card under any circumstances. Yet Timmy Cahill gets sent off for his tackle. It's ridiculous.

Disagree with you on Mcdonald, hes crap...

Imo 4-4-2, Ruki and Kennedy up front.

Haha there you go again blaming the players for the coaches faults. McDonald isn't crap, he is the best striker Australia has, and is a far better player than Mark Viduka or Harry Kewell (albeit a different sort of player). His record speaks for itself, 51 goals in 88 SPL games for Celtic. The difference between his form for the Socceroos and his form for Celtic is the fact that when he played for Celtic his coach used him in a formation that suited him, and reaped the benefits. For the Socceroos he has always played upfront by himself, which he absolutely can not do.

People seem to think that if a player is good then they can play well in any position and suit any formation, but it really isn't the case. If the coach gets the tactics right and has good man management skills, any team can beat anybody, eg. Switzerland vs Spain, Serbia vs Germany, New Zealand vs Italy... All perfect examples of the coach nailing the tactics. Don't underestimate the influence tactics and good coaching has on a game.

Australia 2-1 Serbia; Germany 1-0 Ghana. Not enough for Australia to go through to the last 16 :D What a good effort though. Anyone who tries to tell me Australia can't play football, I will be pointing them to that match. Unlucky Socceroos

      Hi. Hoping someone can maybe tell me if the same R34 cable works on R33 coup? Or tell me how I can fix mine. It broke the same way 1" away from the eye. Blessing

      Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP.

      No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently.

      I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.
