All Whites, Ferns, and other international teams
Radio Sport bulletin this morning said he was, and I quote, "chopped down from behind at training by a team mate". Pretty sure that was the exact wording used or very close to it.
What's the chance Big Sam kitted up for a wee kick round with the lads at training and then thought fuck you NZF and did a job on Reid...
(joking)
Who? Scapegoat needed.

There's a kinda circular thing in all this. Who's Winnie's mate in the NZ camp? Who's Winnie's occasional London room-mate? Who might gain game-time in Mehico and Wngtn. as a result of his injury?
Answer: One Jeremy Christie.
Look no further.

Herbert has been carried by his experienced players for a number of years. Now he hasn't got the likes of Elliott, Brown and Nelsen to carry his ass he has become exposed and clueless.

Stop with the stoopid angst.

Ernie Merrick coached Hong Kong, Frank Farina (not saying he is that fantastic) coached PNG and there is a long list of crappy small football nations with half decent coaches (better than Herbert). Yes it comes down to money but you need to spend a little to get a decent coach of the quality to get us into the confederations cup and the world cup where the prize money to qualify for these tournaments well outweighs the cost.
Ricki has done a good job for 7 years??? Really??? because since the last world cup I would think he has done a very poor job. Why does everyone seem to forget the disaster of the Oceania Cup. I don't care what excuses they had for that tournament. We were garbage and are still playing terribly. Ricki has not bought anything new to the table since the last world cup.
Its also pretty obvious that the last world cup came done to Ryan Nelsen not Ricki Herbert. Is anyone aware that while Herbert was coaching the Phoenix it wasnt uncommon for him to leave selection and tactics down to the experienced players in the team? And thats a fact.
Herbert has been carried by his experienced players for a number of years. Now he hasn't got the likes of Elliott, Brown and Nelsen to carry his ass he has become exposed and clueless.
Its going to take a miracle for us to qualify for the world cup and if we do it will not have anything to do with Herbert.
Now if Herbert has done such a good job with the Phoenix and the All Whites I am sure he will have lots of clubs chasing him. My prediction. He will never coach another professional team again.
This post has so much stoopid in it.
After Frank got dumped by Brisbane when the worst secret in AU football was let out, the only job Frank the boozer could get was in PNG. See him IRL, has all the visual signs of a hard core alcoholic. I would be surprised if he sees the year out at Sydney as well.
Please name these crappy small football nations ... that also have the same budget as NZF. Bet you can't. Hong Kong is very rich #redherring
No one has forgotten the OFC Nations Cup and from 2005 to mid 2012 is 7 years (as I said?) When was OFC Nations.... mid 2012???
The last two paragraphs.... well those are not exactly new or startling revelations now are they.

I have a feeling that we have to go for it now. Play our best formation regardless of where the match is played. That means include Kosta and Marco and try and play positively. We could be down 3-0 at half time if we try to defend without Reid and have no attacking outlets.
Btw, I'm pretty sure I heard RH on the RadioNZ mid-day news say he might call up a replacement defender. Wonder who?

I smell a huge rat here. Allerdyce manager at West Ham. The same manager who tried to persuade Ryan Nelsen to retire from international footbal when they were both at Blackburn. Interesting that the injury happened at training where there are no cameras.
boxall is good player, should be in the original team alongside the japanese based player and keat ,

Idiots like John Matheson suggesting a conspiracy. It's dumb luck.
Yasser Arafat's corpse found full of polonium. Who's checking out Winston's foot?

A lot of people here suggesting a conspiracy? I highly doubt it, however would never rule it out. The amount of money involved in Mexican football is ridiculous and a player could have been payed a fair amount of cash to take out Winston. However, this is extremely unlikely and I think people are being a bit paranoid here. Injuries happen in this sport. It's just the law of averages.

Didn't hear any names mentioned. Neither a source. Radio Sport could have been talking through their arse.
Given Big Sam is in charge there it could be any one of the team though, loves a hacker
