Mossy will be celebrating his 150th Aleague game and also Ernie will be in charge for his 200th Aleague game (first to do so).  Well done to both.

Can I get in early and say this is a Six pointer game...

Are we missing anyone for this one due to internationals (Burns/Roly?). Aus play in Germany on the 25th, and I never caught up with whether Roly agreed to play for Curacao.

I see that Janko (and about half our squad) is going to miss next weeks game against the Bling.

If Roly plays for Curacao we may struggle a bit. Don't think it's been confirmed yet.

Have we flown back to Welly?

Janko is a massive loss for them. If he goes, things improve slightly.

The problem I see us having is that we are top of the league but only beat teams above us on the table. This means that this will be a short lived moment at the summit for us.

I hope he accepts a call up another time cos it'd be cool to have a Curacao international in the squad.

Undoubtedly.

Be even cooler to have a full Dutch international in the squad too!

Yeeeessss, I know. So?

My point was that one of the reasons he MAY have turned Curacao down is he MAY have ambitions to play for the full Dutch side...

...and _IF_ that came to pass, it would be even cooler having a full Dutch international in our team than having a full Curacao international in our team.

Brandon didn't say he expected him to, he said that Roly might still hope to.

He's 23 and has played age group for the country.  What is wrong with having aspirations (even if it's only fan conjecture that he does)?

As for the absolute bollocks that it's a different standard to what Tommy Smith is held to?  Come on Hamster you are better than that.  It's chalk and Cheese.

How's my driving? - Whine here

It would be different if Tommy Smith had never played an International and we offered a call-up, that'd be the same situation.
