    Hitman predicts correctly

    No, it's just that Liverpool haven't had 538 strips in the last five seasons like "Merchandising Utd"! Also, they don't turn round and blame it on a poxy gray away strip when Southampton stuffs them! Hitman, better turn down the sensitivity meter just a little. At your age (16, am I right) you...

    Phil Thompson - the musical

    Re: Phil Thompson Having a big conk would appear to be the least of ol' Phil's problems- has there ever been a manager who gesticulates and generally flaps his arms around as much as he does? The players must say "bloody hell Phil, would you sit down and shut up for a minute?" (Does anybody...

    World Cup Coverage

    I agree with you that SBS has done a great job with their coverage over the years, but I must say that I find all the features about each city etc. before the games pretty tedious. It's like "just shut up and show us the match already". Really, if I want a history/ geography lesson I'll watch a...

    One Day Cricket- some comments/rant:

    I don't wish to offend any fans of the 'pyjama game', but... It seems to me that the one day stuff attracts a totally different kind of audience to Test Cricket- people who don't really seem to appreciate the sport. You can pretty much bet that you're talking to someone who doesn't appreciate...

    Secret Mens' Business

    Just wondered if any of you blokes can recommend any bars/ clubs out there that offer a decent chance of ahem, acquiring female company. Preferably not nightclubs per se, would rather go somewhere where you can actually talk, and don't have to put up with atrocious dance music. Somewhere in...

    World Cup Coverage

    Max Walker, maybe? Ian Gibson? (My understanding was that SBS or Foxtel would have the group games, but after that, the "biggies" will be on 9). God only knows what treasures are in store- ads during breaks in play?

    What Premier League club can you follow without shame?

    Dear Sethlad, now that a certain Mr. Johnson has departed to Elland Road, will you now be known as TAFKAS? (The Artist Formerly Known As Sethlad)

    Socceroos trivia

    I was flicking through "Ralph" mag recently (as you do) and came across an article about the Socceroos 4-1 drubbing of Argentina back in '88. After recovering from how bad our shirts were, I got to wondering whether Argentina had a full strength side on the park that night. Does anyone recall...

    Socceroo yellow cards

    Could someone please let me know who are the four (?) Aussies carrying yellows into Tuesday night's game? I reckon they could be in for a torrid time!!

    That is why no one takes Australia seriously

    Dear "Still Crowing", I am the person responsible for the posting you refer to. I did not, repeat DID NOT refer to the above-mentioned club in a derogatory fashion, I spelt the club's name in the proper way and was horrified to see the computer had "assumed" I swore!! I think there's a bit of a...

    match the big guns??

    No doubt it was a very encouraging performance. Can we compete? I guess I'll reserve my judgement until we meet one of the "big guns" during the World Cup Finals. It's very hard to quantify exactly how 'switched on' the French were.

    Did anyone catch 3LO's coverage of Socceroos?

    Yeah, think it might have been Mr.Wills- who IS he? Fair point you make about the diff b/w radio and TV commentary- I guess my comments were influenced by the fact I was watching it live. I still think Mr.Wills could learn a fair bit from Martin Tyler though-and as for "touch judge" etc, I...
