was watching “super soccer” (i think that is the name) – the midnight saturday soccer highlights / talk fest on tv over here.
i usually don`t understand much, but i saw this slightly humanoid looking strip of pitch sitting on a bench waving … happily? it was hard to tell. no features on its face. i am used to seeing cute anthromorphised animal mascots. but the pitch? woah. and his name was mr pitch. he was shiny, flat and green. i know its a he cos his name starts with mr.
of course, if there was an a-league mr pitch, he would have to look beaten up and bumpy. daduh bing!
the sound of silence is an amazing thing. the adelaide reds owners want out. queensland/brisbane roar have issued a statement saying they are not handing in their licence (smoke. fire.). ante covic tattles on con about not paying player`s super … and no-one is talking about it. the original auckland owners handed back their licence. so did the original perth glory owners. (apologies if this is wrong. i am too lazy a muck to research anything i spout). things could get bumpy. all the kerfuffle about the asian player drain could soon be forgotten if the financial integrity of our brave new “franchises” collapses.
