No respect for Socceroos shirt and fans who support it

Post by ford prefect »

While the points made generally have merit and express what many people thought about the game, it's interesting that the Fairfax group have seen fit to publish them so late after the game and in every regional paper in NSW, especially including blatantly ignorant comments such as this one...

"Just who is promoting Harry Kewell? As slow as a carthorse, cannot tackle yet receives all the kudos. His regard for ball possession is woeful, his passes astray. In front of goal, his repertoire consists of grubber kicks and airswings. Please give some coverage to other players in the team - Harry just ain't that good.
