yup, but it was Kevin Sheedy's 25th anniversary game as Essondon's head coach.
how many coaches in professional sport can say they have coached the same team for (now) 26 years!?!
pretty impressive :P

Delhi - India (here) Ingulrand V Porturgirl Hundreds of yocals suporting Ingurland in the yocal bar. I was pished (still am). A couple of Portugirl (yocal) supporters called Rooney a wanker. They were linched by the Ingurland supporters. Blood n gore abound. Makes me feel like home. Every time Singirland missed a goal etc - hundreds of eyes looked at me to see what my reaction would be (coz I'm white I guess). Rugby rocks. But soccer is always good for a good off the pitch ruck. Pished - and now the last thing I fancy is a curry. Anyone fancy an English?

Even the head of FIFA thinks its rubbish, but he can't admit that............so he blames the referees.

The best thing is the highlights package - all the goals and swan dives in a 2 minute montage. Thats OK.

120 minutes for no result is rubbish.

Take men off each team at the end or regulation I reckon.

V8's suck, they have locked diffs, completely different suspension setups to the road cars, 1940's engine technology that is tuned to the hilt. They only have a passing resemblance to the overweight/out of date junk you buy in the showrooms.
Some good racing though, but it was better when it had more manufacturers involved, back when Godzilla was cleaning up.[/QUOTE]

V8s suck?? what about the Typhoon, wait thats a 6 cylinder turbo, hahahaha v8's must suck.

here is some info when i worked for ford. the XR8 put out i think (if i can remember) 260kw, and the XR6 turbo put out 240 or 245kw some where round that. funny how the HSV clubsport was 235kw less than the ford V6

one more thing the XR8's engine was tuned to the hilt, when the 6cyl turbo was derestricted so much that if you chipped it, new exhaust and air filter it could get to about 270kw. when we dynoed one car it had 304kw, oh but it had a larger front intercooler, and the boost had been cranked up.
