Scott Chipperfield ? Josip Skoko ? Mile Sterjovski ?

I imagine they must be household names somewhere, so if anyone can fill me in on the details I would be pleased to expand my education.


:D :D :D

Footballplayers, probably not very good. :D

Are they members of the Moscow state circus. ? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Scott Chipperfield is a bit of a funny name for a Bulgarian!

Funny or not, the guy has his own fanpage.

Bloody hell he's an aussie! Why is he listed with all those foreigners?

Chipper! :D How can I not have heard of you seeing as you played for the world famous Wollongong Wolves?

:D

:D </font>[/QUOTE]LOL - what a blatant take-off of my thread ;) - they say imitation is the best form of flattery [img]smile.gif[/img] .

The odds on Chipperfield and company getting a look in other than on the reserves bench seems pretty unlikely. And I think our football players stand a better chance at Upton Park than those tennis players of yourn next week Donut [img]smile.gif[/img] .

As for the Wollongong Wolves - they won the league two years runnning a couple of years back, and Chipperfield scored the deciding goal when they came back from 3-0 down at half time against Perth. And "Skokes" and "Sterj" are household names where I come from.

Donutson. You sir are a cad and a buffoon. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And you sir are a poltroon! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Why did I bother learning English ? I could have managed with old French : "Vous êtes un poltron, Messire". ! :D

damn, i knew i should have been born australian, i would be playing proffesional football right now! :D

LOL at johnny :D - now you must have known I was going to bookmark this thread for re-emergence if the unthinkable happened [img]smile.gif[/img]

Autralia 3 England 1 - the good news being that the England 2nd's at least broke even (1-1) with us in the 2nd half.

Hmm - methinks that since this post, Donut has seen some of these guys in action [img]smile.gif[/img] - so what can you tell us about them now my friend?

I'll try to catch the highlights tonight and let you know. I'm suprised you didn't watch it seeing as it was such a big deal down under. Big screens erected to watch it - you've got to laugh! ;)

How did you know I hadn't seen the game buddy - you're right though :D . Sleep looked to be the more attractive option, though I did watch the last 20 mins when I got up at my standard time of 05:30 am. I did get to see both 2nd half goals. By the sounds of it, we were much more impressive in the 1st half, and I am about to watch that while having my tea tonight [img]smile.gif[/img] .
