While the thread title may sound sarcastic I'm actually against kicking a man while they're down (same applies to Mr Rudd). Yes Australian's are about being fair dinkim, but we're also about having a fair go. So in fairness to Pim I want to thank him for the positives.

Thank you Pim for:
- not being intimidated with having to fill Guus' big shoes
- accepting the '2nd choice' tag after we were screwed by Dick
- singing the National Anthem when many Aussie's themselves don't know the words
- taking us to the World Cup through our maiden Asian qualifying campaign
- Asian Cup qualification
- seeing something in Holman which we couldn't see
- keeping the squad in good spirits, unlike the disaster's of England and France.
- defeating the likes of Netherlands, Ghana, Ireland, Japan, Denmark & Serbia
- achieving 4 points in the World Cup, a lofty target set by none other than Guus himself

All the best in your role with Morocco, and bring them over for a friendly one day.
