[mat2154]

[wuddie]

aust is goooonnee

 

[mat2154]

blasts it over the bar still in it if we score

 

[mat2154]

carney scores, but we need japan to miss another one

 

[mat2154]

japan win 4:3 on penalties

 

[timlay]

.... bloody hell. how the FUCK did kewell and neill screw up.

UNfucking believeable.




im gonna go cut myself now.

 

[wuddie]

fk! i actually put money on a multi with aust in it. i knew they were crap but losing to japan is appalling.

never again.

 

[stazi]

oh well. i guess we did well with 10 men. i think this officially establishes Japan as our rivals. Even over Uruguay.

 

[wuddie]

just for the record, who missed the pen shots for aust? so i know who to stab when they come back.

 

[mat2154]

you should put your money on arnold getting the sack. i predict this will probably happen within a week. houillier to be the new coach of australia with arnold back to assistant

 

[timlay]

.... bloody hell. how the FUCK did kewell and neill screw up.

neill and kewell.

 

[LMF^^]

Disappointing loss, and Arnold was shitting himself while the shootout was on.

Meh, I never expected Aus to win the comp, but still I expected us to go further.

Its not really that appalling, we played out of our skins in the World Cup, but Japan aren't a shit team by any length of the imagination.

 

[mat2154]

neill and kewell.

how ironic, the two most overrated players. kewell did not look match fit while neill just looked tired and disinterested. probably caring more about the bags of money that they are earning at liverpool or west ham

 

[timlay]

yeh.

kewell was a sub too.
why would he even look more tired than the rest of them.

just coz he was a lone striker...

why did we even take all our strikepower out anyway...

and WHY OH WHY did grella have to stick his arm out and hence the one man advantage japan had.

 

[stazi]

oh well. let's try and move our status to European, so that we can go for Euro 2008.

 

[timlay]

spain and portugal look ok.

some nice young talent . e.g. torres and cesc while portugal have c ronaldo. and nani.

but i always take a liking to the netherlands.....

BUT since the world cup i've been going for GERMANY (coz i got that for a sweep)

haha. as if australia shouldn't be part of europe... *shrugs*

 

[jemsta]

but really, after how australia played duing the duration of the asian cup, they didnt deserve to progress any further.
hope they learnt their lesson.

We brought it upon ourselves by not winning our group
