Why don't 'Strayan 442 get a couple of half decent columnists?Simon Hill and the tard bloke from The Age are a bit bland don't you think??

Mind you at least you put Chad Gibson out of his misery he was painful to say the least and an insult to 442's great world wide reputation.

Can any of the 442 readers think of other journalists,coaches or players in the Australian game who could perhaps write a stimulating magazine column??


I'd give Frank Farina a call his one on one interview was more than lively!!


=d> =d>

This is Staya you're talking about.

If you want top quality football opinion you should buy World Soccer...

there are plenty of comumnists that are half decent, but to be honest, i could do a better job than Simon Hill & that guy from the age. they only have to write a page a month and half page is crap, a quarter of it is filler and and eighth of it is taken up by their goofy photos and the "headline", which only leaves an eighth of the page left over, which is mostly taken up by the margin.

Personally I like Hill. The guy from the age is deadwood though. I would give Farina a colum and maybe Merrick or Branko.

not Farina, i dont know that he could contribute any more to the magazine.
Merrick could be interesting. perhaps a european socceroo?? i dunno that anybody would want to though.
better yet, let me do ito:)

Only if you have to put

"Sydney FC - Australia's top team"

in every report. o:)

how about "Melbourne Victory are not exactly world beaters, but next to "sydney FC - Australia's top team"

o:) o:)

I may be able to live with that. May :-"

good *rubs hands together*...so when do i start?? writing for next month's magazine right?8-[

Maybe we could make our own mag? Threaten them with that then they will let you write.

i can imagine how well a magazine written on toilet paper would sell incomparison to FFT

I want to know who will stock it :p

i want to know who'd read it and check them into the laughing academy :P

seriosuly thoug, if there are guys from FFT reading this, why dotn you get the readers to contribute to articles?? i'd like to throw my hat into the ring.

Agree. I would happily have a go.

Paul Hansford, are you reading this??[-o<

How will we write our colums on our trek to SJP?

Clearly they need to hire me :P

I'm a fan of Simon Hill (except when he needessly takes shots at rugby league), and I don't mind the other guy. A few extra guys wouldn't be bad, but none really spring to mind. Journalists who are pro football aren't exactly in abundance in this particularly neck of the woods :P

the internet is a wonderful thing.

Do they have it in Indonesia?

doubt it, but there's always satellite connection.

Excellent.

So when do we start :-s

probably not, but there's probably satellites that can be connected to.

as soon as i'm not quite so sober and as soon as i stop posting twice. how's tomorrow morning?? it all depends on when Paul wants to hire us. let us know wont you paul??

We will work for 100k each an article. Plus a computer to type the articles on and 3 female escorts.

See that button that says "Show Quick Reply" ?

Learn to use it..

Erbus - must we??



i'll settle for a computer and some money for the article...i might get into some trouble for having the company of an escort ;)

No you dont have to. But its a hell of a lot better than quoting 10 replies all the damn time.

secretly you enjoy having someone to tell off though ;)

i'm just jokin btw. we get a formal warning if we shit you to much right??

No 8-[ o:) :p

it's a medical disorder that renders us incapable :P

OFf more than one thing :-"

no, dude...SHUT UP!!! ](*,)

wpeak for yourself mate, i'm still an able bodied 18 year old, i just have a medical condition know as selective defness that renders me incapable of following certain requests or instructions :P

So you got the "treatment" Up the nose and away it goes :p

dude, i'm 18, not 400. you are a disturbed indervidual :P

where is Erebus when you need him??!!

My basement......... I mean partying.

partying in your basement perhaps??

Yes...... that will be a good cover story :-"

i didnt see anything:-"

Excellent. Now to find a disposle area :-k

i've always found those plastic compost bins wrapped in chains and dropped out at sea quite useful...=p~

Yeah but burning destroys all the evidence..... with the sea option it can be washed to land.

not with marine-grade stainless steel chains weighing it down...

But they rust and then they just look tacky.

with MARINE GRADE it will rust a lot slower, and why are you worried about it looking tacky?? you wont be able to see it when it's under 300ft of water.

But what happens if someone does find it. Then they will all think were tacky.

given that 70% fo Earth is covered in water, i hardly thinkt aht will be a problem.

But someone might take the plug out *stares at Erebus*

but I thought that erebus was in the box??...but that could still be a problem with the plug...:-k

I'll be pulling the plug on you two if you keep spamming every single thread with all you chats that, since you are 'mates', could be having in MSN or in real life.

You are spamming and cluttering the boards with idle chatter. Make a thread in the general forum for it rather than spamming any and every thread that is created around here. Its getting really annoying and it probably is turning off some visitors to the forums.

...crap...he's onto us...RUN!!!

actualy, we're hardly mates, we've never met before...if it really shits you that much ten i guess we'd better stop.

We shall make our own useless junk thread o:)
