Yes it does!!!!

I wouldn't know it by going to Aus 442 though :-k

Can we PLEASE get some La Liga and Serie A regular news on the website? Add Bundisliga as well.

They are like 6 rounds in, Juventus is on 2nd place and we get no news at all (bare minimum at best). The only time Italian football gets mentioned here is when someone gets killed, Euro 2008 qualifiers and Champions League round ups.

C'mon guys. Football exists outside of the UK and Australia (not saying that I don't read almost every Australian related article..)

Get some Spanish, Italian and German news on here. We have European and World players of the years coming from these leagues. We have the Champions League winners and World Champions coming from these leagues yet they get hardly any mention on this website.

What Erebus said. I hardly even realised that the Serie A was that far in until I checked out the tables on the website.

Emphasis on the Bundesliga, there's SFA on it.
I acn understand why there's so much attention being paid to the English game, but it's not necessary. Here Here Erebus.

Just so you know, the Ronaldo/ManU story was read by five times the number of people who read the Lazio-Real Madrid story today, and the Benitez Liverpool story was read by five times the number of people who read the Inter Milan story posted at the same time today.

While we always aim to provide as comprehensive an overview as possible, I'm a keen believer in giving the reader more of what they want... At the moment, it appears more people want to read about UK clubs than Euro ones.

However I'll bump up the Euro coverage next week (I'm away this weekend) and see if it continues the same pattern, but the basic message is, if you want more, click more on the stories already there!

Oh dear doesn't look like you'll be getting an invite to the TWG christmas party Airsy:-k

Airs thats shocking! im sorry mate but the only reason that we have a hardon for english football is because thats all the overseas coverage weve been getting for ages with only gimpses of the other leagues! maybe if people like you began some coverage over here then you will get more people reading

Ahh yes, the old Chicken or the Egg arguement :-({|=

Its called evolution, a combination of a lack in both supply and demand [for other leagues] over time.

=d>

;) Thank you, Im here all night. Try the lobster ;)

Depends how is it cooked?

The trouble is that the website's coverage is somewhat lacking in comprison to other webpages (ie skysports or soccernet) and hence, people go to them for said news. The Rob Styles stories posted by FFT were at times 18 hours behind the skysports coverage. They need to keep the coverage upto date to draw people here.


Lobster was lousy, prawns were better ;)

Eh? Check the time stamp on this - we had the story up within minutes of the game finishing at 5am. How much more up to date do you want?

* thinks immediately of Space Balls*

Hahahahaha, GOLD!

That story perhaps, but the news taht he wouldn't be managing on the weekend wasn't up until the day after I think.

http://au.fourfourtwo.com/news/59408,mourinho-essien-thought-he-was-a-goner.aspx - Chelsea's reaction at 6am UK-time

http://au.fourfourtwo.com/news/59425,styles-stood-down-over-foulup.aspx - not managing the game story as soon as it broke in the UK (shortly after midday Sunday UK-time, the day after the match)...

http://au.fourfourtwo.com/news/59437,styles-says-sorry-to-liverpool.aspx - Styles says sorry as soon as it broke in the UK at 3am our time.

Links Friday is tomorrow ;)

Ok kevin, you win with that, however, the News that Neil Warnock has taken over as CP manager has been up for an hour and a half on skysports and you've missed that so far.


ehehehehe. And yet people still post in there when it isn't :P

Tsk - 2.35pm today.

Still nothing on Socceroos v Nigeria.

nothing on the nigeria game and that thing about Del piero leaving... you just wrote it today when the the president said he "could leave" around a week ago...

The Del Piero one is from the Press Association, not the 442 journos, so they didn't actually "write" it.

:-" My bad, but the headlines disappear quickly, as long as you're taking suggestions...have three headlines or something.


Indeed.

well maybe that should have wrote it a week ago?? lol

The official word from the FFA (as of seconds ago) is that the Nigeria game is just speculation at the moment.

When it's confirmed, we'll put it up.

It seems the fox has outwited us yet again =d>

Pfft thats just Cockerill making shit up like he always does. He is the only one that has mentioned the Nigerian game scheduled for a month away. He is the only one thats "confirmed" that Advocaat is the new coach. No other source is stating this stuff.

You would think that there would be more than just talk on cable TV if there was an international friendly a month away. And why do people keep fucking talking about Advocaat??!! :@

Advocaat will tell the board of that club hes with in under 2 weeks whether or not he will coach aus

They think he will save our team. Mourhino is better and free.
