Waaah Waaah

Please, show me anything of substance that has been discussed here that hasn't been related to the Oz bid or the Bidding process in a wider context?

Can we impress upon people that the FIFA techincal report gives a big tick to Australias stadium arrangements so the AFL should not be a scapegoat, whatever happens.

You know, I'm starting to get quite 'optimistic' about our chances :D
I am optimistic but also very nervous. I just can't imagine us hosting a world cup in Australia. I would be disappointed but satified if the US win it (it would be a fantastic holiday) but if Qatar wins it the whole process is a sham.

I definitely am not as confident as some of the other pro bid people on this board. Hopefully they are privy to reliable inside information and it is not just false bravado.

ah Checker - you just LOVE LOVE LOVE cernsorship dont you?

We can say what we like, just as long as:

a) you agree with it
b) you approve of it
c) you get to define what is a troll and what is debate on your terms.

You should seriously get over yourself and let the board manage itself.

Don't forget- he also claims he has inside information- if you're going to do that, name names, Checker- who is it that is giving you info? I know you said you talked with people at the WC in South africa, but the field has changed quite a bit in the last four months- ExecCo members, perhaps?

Inquiring minds want to evaluate.....

No,but I had confirmation of quite a few votes with the chance of a few more from 2 close sources within 8 hours at the time.
It confirmed everything our group has known for a while.The situation is fluid though

'our group'??

please do tell more,

otherwise, you have less credibility than Michael Lynch's 'unnamed sources within FFA close to the bid'.......

There are a few here,that post from time to time that are involved.I don't have to substantiate myself to anyone,especially at this critical stage.And I very much doubt that Lynchy knows what we know collectively.

This forum could have been so much better:rolleyes:

Okay,

Just thought you were an amateur zealot.

Really - - what did you expect??
