He normally logs on to post here at FY between 11pm and 2am, which suggests he's overseas, and probably further afield than Australia, but maybe west coast of AU.
 
His questions to Tony Lochhead was about mangers and what Tony thought of them (maybe sizing him up for an approach?)
 
Is pretty blatant in his push to get WPFC to sign certain players ("Wellington needs to act " - Posted: 10 May 2007 at 2:00am )
 
Claims to work for 442, as he "set up an interview with TL", which would also explain most of the above.
 
The jury is still out on this guy. ;)

Rossi. Hes not bad bro. But i dont think hes phoenix material however he did train with the roar and is playing state league so he isnt rubbish. Scored a bicycle outside the box when he came here so i guess some talent. However tambos the man we want.

Paper work delays gentleman.
 
Felipe will be announced within 48 - 72 hours.
 
Ricki looking at Brazilian defender, provided money is right.
 
Lying is what pretenders who want to be but can't be are.
 
Most of my facts are at least one month ahead of time.
 
Just look at 442 history

My thoughts are that Felipe will sign in next 48 - 72 hours without asking for another cent.
 
I am not Felipe's agent

You have no idea Benjamin.

Melbourne made enquiry about Campos but the Nix had already verbally agreed with the player and the players agent Steve Panopulos.

 

Panopulos was the one the got Fred to Victory.

 

You information is S**T, that you make up with your wet dreams.

If you wish I can get Panopoulos to confirm.

If you want to start a competition on who has facts and who has wet dreams - bring it on!!!!

 

I refer you to my record on reporting facts on 4 - 4 - 2.lOOK AT HISTORY FROM DAY 1 WHEN 4 - 4 - 2 STARTED THE WEBSITE

ALL I AM INTERESTED IN SEEING IS RICKI AND THE BOYS TO KICK ASS AND GET THE TEAM IN THE SEMIS IN YEAR 1.

Thanks bro,
 
Blokes like you and Napier are supporters that want facts not made up stories that Benjamin makes up after midnight in his wet dreams.
 
Stay tuned for Campos signing in next 48 odd hours and then the wonderful Brazilizn defender that will hopefully occur if finances permit.
 
At 22 years of age this defender is playing in Portugal second division and is a Brazilizn International at youth level.
 
There is also a 29 year - old defender but he is expensive for our league.
 
Alex - the stiker is not lost either.
 
The right winger from South Melbourne will be in Wellington on or about the midddle of June.

Lunatic - I don't know where that came from mate.  I haven't doubted a word you've said so far.  You want to point me towards anything that indicates that I have?  You seem to get very upset though, I'd be interested to find out what I've done to deserve your vitriol.
 
As to my information - I was advised by a friend that a deal had been arranged with Pheonix, but that the agent backed away, which suggested to me that someone was trying to get a better deal. Obviously my friend got the wrong end of the stick.
 
Also don't get your obsession with wet dreams.  I've only posted two facts so far.  One being that Daniel had signed a 2 year contract rather than the 1 that had been reported - this has since been confirmed.  The other was that Ricki was looking at a winger and a striker from Brazil - he was, it appears that both deals fell through (the striker in question was NOT Alex or Campos).
 
Keep on posting the scoops, mate, but drop the attitude - I'm too old, too cool and too well travelled to be bothered with it.

Onya, mate.  I can sleep soundly now, knowing that I am still without enemies.
 
For the record, I'm not a Nix fan - I'm a football fan waiting impatiently for the game to take over in Australia.  The failure of the previous NZ franchise had me spitting (because I don't want any franchises to fail) - and I'm hoping that Ricki can do a better job, and Wellington can provide better support, etc.  A bit of Brazilian flair can't hurt - and when they signed a Brazilian I actually knew of, I just had to get on here and make my excitement known.

Good to see that you both have kissed and made up.
As you both have very interesting articles that are posted on this site, so keep up the good work.
Also is it true that John Aloisi is about to sign for Sydney FC?

He said that he has no intention of coming to the A-League this year.

Im not overjoyed on Brazilian defenders. They just dont inspire confidence defensively. Are they any good or liable to f**k ups?

Any word on Tambo?

Plenty of good Brazilian defenders out there looking for A-League/K-League/J-League places.  The traditional mentality of supporters is challenged by the Brazilian defender - most of 'us' want our central defenders to put the foot through the ball and whack it 40m up the pitch - but your Brazilian will typically look to play it out...  Can be nerve-wracking if you're not used to it.

Interview with Paraguay's Carlos Gamarra during the 1998 FIFA World Cup France taken from http://www.fifa.com/en/mens/index/0,2527,117977,00.html?articleid=117977

Theat old question:
And what about the standard stereotype that there are no top-class defenders in Brazil?
"There are loads of good defenders here, it's just that the Brazilians play with a very different defensive system. The full backs don't mark at all, and so the centre backs are left to clean up. Therefore, when a team is put under pressure there's no real way of stopping the opposition strikeforce. A striker will shoot two or three times before he scores, but the fans will only see the defensive error rather than the attitude and application put in by the defender until that point."

Take a look at Brazils defense in the world cup, compared to the rest of the team its shocking, players such as Ronaldihno, Carlos are defensively sh*tE.

Football stereotypes are generally quite accurate. Thats why when we sign Brazilians to the A-League, their 'flair' players.

You've let yourself down here.  Anyone describing Roberto Carlos as defensively sh*te needs to check his prescription.  The man is the finest left-back in the history of the game. 
 
Daniel will play left midfield for Pheonix - but he's good enough to play left-back for any side in the A-League - and he was by no means the best left-back playing in the Brazilian league last season.

Hi Gentleman,
 
Felipe is signed sealed and delivered.
 
Saw a dvd highlights package and he looks the goods.
 
Wonderful dribbler and passer and his chip and chase from a  stand still position is sensational.
 
The striker Alex looks good - big strong lad who holds the ball wall and his heading ability is exceptional

Yeah, I've been wondering for weeks now when Coveny would put pen to paper, SURELY he would return to his homeland. Not the most useless forward around.
