The title pretty much say it all - 90 mins away from qualification to possibly play Donut's boys in Korea. An away goal now please.

Just got back from watching the game...
And I must say that the penalty given that resulted in the penalty kick was fairly questionable... Still, congrats to Australia I hope you make it to the big dance! |

Argus - "questionable" - you have me puzzled I'm afraid - I have seen if 5 or 6 times in slow motion? Do you mean it is questionable whether the Uruguan defender was playing Rugby or Soccer - perhaps questionable that Agostino wanted to wait until after the game to have his jumper taken off for swapping with the defender, maybe questionable that the Uruguyan didn't get a yellow or red card for the blatant foul. Please note that there was "bugger all" argument against the decision by the boys in Blue or the keeper. Most of them just hung their heads in resignation.
I'll get off my soapbox now - that should have given Donut enough ammunition to take me down a peg or two . Umm, yes Donut, it was a penalty , and not a very decisively taken one at that. Still, winners are grinners - let's hope the odd goal is enough. While we are on the topic of football - Arrggghhhh - that ref should have blown the whistle 30 seconds before that late Spurs equaliser Grrrrrrr!!!.

quote: Winners are grinners! Good grief Davros have you been on a visit to cliche city? Yes, we let it slip at the end, a real shame because their fans had been ''aving it large' this week as we say in London. Coming on all Billy Big Spuds. Throwing bottles on the pitch and pelting the team coach with bottles, cans and glasses. What nice people!

Hmm, Cliche City - don't think I've ever been there - up north is it - near Carlisle or Windemere??? . Glad I caught you reply - was just about off to bed to catch a few more dreams about what it would be like if stupid EB games ever managed to send some copies of Wizardry 8 to a local OZ store one day (sigh - I wan't this game).
Yes, saw a little of the friendly crowd reaction - nice people huh??? Damn, Wright should have stoppped that one dammit. I see Leeds missed their two "Skippy's" on the weekend - first loss for the season . Oh, and you won't be surprised to hear that Muscat got a yellow card too .

I'm sure that the multimillion dollar Gunners, with a galaxy of French superstars, trampled all over the hapless Spurs. What was the score btw? |

Davros - a yellow or red card? Hmmmmm, they must show slightly different camera angles on British Eurosport (which was the signal we were watching the game on here in Moscow) than where you were watching the game. Ah well, speaking of Rugby I hear that Montero was asked after the game where he learned how to tackle and he said he learned it from watching Muscat in the Australia-French friendly.
