Alf, West Ham are a totally crap team and Brooking couldn't even keep them in the Prem that one year he tried. Agree that Japan need a new manager, but please save your fantasies for the bedroom.
I've always believed that it was downhill for Japan ever since the JFA appointed Zico. Osim could have installed the old school discipoline but his health was an issue. Okada is tactically naive and he may be a good local coach, but not one to take Japan back up the road to recovery. Australia's inclusion into the AFC, was a good decision and raises the standards of Asian football.
This game has the potential to be a very boring game, given Okada's tactical awareness or lack of and the more physical size of the australians.

Australia and Nasty would go well, if we were thinking of babes such as Kylie or I'd even take Elle Macpherson.
The only thing nasty about this game is the potential for boredom. A nil 0-0 or 1-1 stalemate?
I was hoping that koki Mizuno would be called, though unfortunately not. That Bhoy is amazing and looks good in the green and white hoops of celtic.

Thank you bebert. Finally someone who shares the thought that the outfit makes her look like underage and unappetising.

Hmmm, instead of 7 punds the Japanese title for the movie can be 40 kilos....
Jokes aside, I have a lot of respect for Wada Akiko. Truly a J tarento senpai who has her sense of character and is not a synthetic manufacutred product of the J Tarneto factory line.
A fine ambassador for kansai!

Sorry mistyped.
Should read. WTF kind of sports allows you to unpunished for an offence? And more importantly, why do the players have such a resistance to TESTING for steroids?

Move on. SO the guy shot up in 2003. Its out there and its admitted to. If it takes a public release of the names for the players to come clean, I would agree for that. The only problem is that the previous collective bargaining agreement I believe allowed MLB to conduct tests, but not to disclose the guilty culprits. WTF kind of sports allows you to unpuniched for an offence? And more importantly, why do the players have such a resistance to steroids?
104 positively tested, release all their names. Its only then that you'll get to the bottom and have players like Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire really come clean. If they're innocent, their innocent. if their names are on the list they got to explain.

Now this shot I like. The Vitz is a chick car and with Rinka blowing by in a pretty sexy manner if you ask with those nice legs, it looks good.

At least he has the courage to admit his usage inthe past and the mistakes he's made. Move on. He will probably get into the hall of fame unlike Mark McGwire who continues to deny usage despite the accusations all around.

northlondon forgive me on that point, let me expand. One I'm not a fan of Ami Suzuki and two, I just don't like the way the outfit looks on her. My first instinct was that she kind of looked like an underage seller. I just feel that the outfit is better suited to a lady as opposed to a girl which we all tend to describe Ami chan (despite the fact that she's turning 27). Now if Norika Fujiwara was in such an outfit......

Osakadaz, that should read Japanese forwards. Aussie forwards may be can't as well but Aussie midfielders such as Cahill can. Needless to say, he's made the red side of liverpool feel the pain over three games in 4 weeks.
Maki, Tamada, Tanaka, Okubo, Okazaki are not names that strike fear and the guy who I most want in this squad, Koki Mizuno isn't. let's see how the game goes...

I just think there are a 101 other people who can really make that outfit shine and wake me up to glance a drooling look.

Yes it is the US that tried to change football from two 45 minute halves to a game of quarters. Stick to your crappy pigskin version of football played with hands.
The only reason america has won so many olympic football (not soccer for twats like americans) is that the likes of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are good enough to have their own associations and will not play (until 2012) under a unified Great Britain and Northern Ireland team.
Let's just say, the US soccer stops at little kids and soccer mums (not moms - learn to spell mate).
Football is coming home to Engalnd! and more importantly to St James Park!

to even imply that Upton Park is a model stadium representative of what Engalnd has to offer is delusional.
What Engalnd has to offer is Wembley (90,000 seated), Old Trafford (76,000 seated), Emirates (60,000 seated), St James Park (53,000 seated), Anfiled (46,000 seated and hopeful that Stanley Park will be up and running for 60k seated by then), Villa Park (43,000 seated and hopefully up to 51,000 after expansion).
There are currently around 10 to 12 places bigger than Upton Park, and if London needed to host it would be consider Emirates adn Stamford bridge before they even look at that crappy Claret and Blue ground!

They're given awards for a best 30's 40' and 50's graceful women. Why does newsreader get its own category? Why not a graceful women award for best pop singer, best model, best jeanist, best bikinist etc etc...?
