Australia plants suicide bomb on Iraq

Strange huh? It’s the last thing you’d ever expect in the war in Iraq, that, some of the coalition forces themselves, would be suicide bombers. Apparently there is something similar, and its called the Australian football team. I thought the Oman game was bad, this was much worse. Poor attack, poor defence, and poor discipline. All three goals were rubbish, each time, silly errors and just giving the ball away. 1st one, lack of communication between defender and goalkeeper. 2nd and 3rd, just lazy defence. Neill, supposedly our best defender, gets sent off. He had an awful game anyway, I hold him personally responsible for the 2nd, and possibly, 3rd goal. So disappointing, I hold him in such a high regard, but now, I really don’t know. What about Kisnorbo? He had a shocker against Oman, and how does he repay Arnold’s faith in him? Unbelieveable, the way he missed the ball when he should have got it, and gave the ball away so easily, it was school boy stuff. A team that has made me so proud the last year or two, is now playing such shocking football. I don’t even know where to begin, every other part of their game sucked as well, although not as bad as the defence.

Now, we need Iraq to top the group (by beating or drawing with Oman) and then beat Thailand convincingly to go through ahead of them on head to head record. Believe it or not we can still top the group if we hammer Thailand and Oman beats Iraq. At this rate neither of these scenarios seems appealing, as at the rate we’re going, I’ll be surprised if we can even get one point from the hosts. The team that was favourite to take out the tournament is now staring down the barrel at first round elimination. I’ll watch keenly on Monday, only because I have nothing to lose. Whatever happens, I want to see Arnold gone. I couldn’t imagine this sort of a display if Hiddink was in charge. Sign the petition to have him sacked: www.sackarnold.com.
