Is that Daniel Radcliffe in 20 Years???
Hehehe, Clarke is on the radio saying that all this fiasco is soley
Fifa's fault. She's now stepping into an arena she obviously knows
nothing about and I think she should make a tacticle retreat
asap otherwise she might find her junket as UN president when
she retires as Prime Minister in serious doubt.
The ultimate answer is of course Trevor Mallard. Why? Because
as the Minister of Everything there are no doubts he'll poke his
nose in once he gets over the disappointment of the AB's.
Mind you, since the Trevor Mallard Stadium on the Auckland
waterfront was cancelled, the 800 million he promised suddenly
disappeared. So when the Eden Park upgrade was announced, he said
there was NO money available but that they "might" be able to make
150-200 million appear. But strangley as it gets closer to doing
the upgrade, the silence from the Minister of Everything's office
is strangely deafening.
Will Mallard be the answer to the football? Watch this
space...... So far Peters & Clarke are confirmed arsholes,
who's next? Oh and Banks was always one!

This government is too used to pushing sporting bodies around.
Hardly surprising when they control the purse strings for just
about every sporting body in New Zealand. But laying into Fifa on
this one is a huge mistake. Fifa are bigger and more powerful than
the New Zealand government. Ruffling feathers there will do Clark
no good if she hopes to land some cushy job with her fellow
socialist weasels at the UN after she retires.
Also, NZ are used to having their way with rugby - NZRFU say jump
and the IRB say 'How high?'
Messing with FIFA is one battle that the NZ gov will come off 2nd best
FIFA always maintain you should keep politics out of sport - if only spending lip service to this mantra most of the time - but when petty Pacific politics interferes with FIFA's Oceania WC qualifying comp then it's not going to be happy.

if the government keep stirring this up, we'll find ourselves
suspended from international competition like FIFA have to so many
other countries sufering from political
interfererance (admittedly in more trying circumstances) in
the past.
rubbish. That type of hyperbole adds nothing. NZ
Government aren't even close to the point where they will cause our
suspension from international competition. There has been no
interference with the board or the running of NZ Soccer, simply an
application of our immigration policies towards Fiji.
