Bullshit

Its is with hands shaking in rage that I type this Blog.
To quote my brother "Australia were just fu%^ed in the arse - with no lube"


This spastic is the sole reason, Luis Medina Cantalejo from Spain, well Mr Cantalejo I would strongly suggest you never plan on a holiday down under.

I dont even need to tell you what it is im so furious about. It is a replay that we will see over and over again for years to come and I will feel like tracking this dimwitted daygo down and lynching him everytime I see it.

So I jump online to write a blog whilst im still steaming at the ears, Dont know what I was thinking but I find this on ninemsn.com

Girl murdered in shopping centre toilet
Tuesday Jun 27 02:30 AEST
Police are searching for a man following the discovery of an eight-year-old girl's body in a shopping centre toilet in suburban Perth.
The gruesome discovery was made by the girl's 14-year-old brother in a disabled toilet at Livingston Marketplace, Canning Vale, in Perth's south-east, about 4.10pm (WST) on Sunday.
Police spokesman Sergeant Graham Clifford said the major crime squad was treating the death as murder.
Sgt Clifford said the toilet was in a well-used area of the shopping centre, near the entrance to a Big W store. He had no information on injuries the victim suffered or the cause of death. He said the girl went missing after going to the female toilets at the same time as her brother and uncle went to the male toilets.
The brother and uncle began searching the shopping centre and carpark after she failed to come out of the female toilets.
"The disabled toilet was engaged when they first searched," Sgt Clifford said.
He said the brother saw a man leave the disabled toilet when he returned from the carpark and chased the man through the centre, but lost him after he left the main entrance.
"He (the brother) discovered his sister deceased when he returned to the disabled toilet," Sgt Clifford said.
Police were seeking a 27-year-old man with blond hair, chubby to muscular build, 187cm tall with a fair to pale complexion, he said.

What is the world coming to? what sort of a place do we live in where people even think about dragging 8 year old girls into toilets and killing them just to float there boats? What a shit Place the world is turning into.
I hope they catch this bastard and they let the public loose on him to kick the living hell out of him. Bring back a noose thats all this scum deserves.

All the anger at the pathetic officiating of Four soccer games seems so ridiculously petty and lame now. Thank god Australia's run at the world cup is over, no more late nights.

The Scum of the Earth far out way bad Soccer referees

Socceroos



What a tremedous effort.
The Socceroos have made it through to the final 16 of the world cup coming into the event they were ranked 42nd on FIFA's listing. Congratulations to Ghana who have also made the final 16 from a ranking of 46th.

The game this morning V Croatia seems like the most anticipated event in Australian sporting history, Considering the game was at a 5am kick off time its remarkable.

My brother and a mate came by to watch the game this morning, my brother said on the way he didnt see a household that didnt have a light on, everybody was up and watching. Reports of upto 20,000 people gathered in and around Federation Square, and after the match streets of Melbourne Victoria were blocked off for the party to fully kick on.

This mornings game against Croatia got off to the worst possible start in the 2nd minute a beautiful strike from Darijo Srna from a dubious free kick had Croatians going crazy. 5 Minutes later Mark Viduka was rugby tackled in the penalty box and play on was the call. Australia received a penalty for a hand ball and it was tucked away by Craig Moore in the 38th minute.

The score at halftime was 1-1

56th minute and Croatia retain the lead, Kovac turns Cahill and offers a weak shot that Kalac has covered, Oops Kalac turns into a spastic at this point and the ball goes straight through him 2-1 Croatia and there fans were singing.

Zeljko Kalac gets his name change made official



79th minute Aloisi flicks on by head a cross that lands at the feet of Harry Kewell, he uses a touch to control the ball and then slams it into the back of the net.

Harry Celebrates



2-2 a draw, Securing Australia 2nd position in group F.

The Referee in this game can only be labelled as "PATHETIC" two games in a row now Australia have had to deal with sub standard decisions. Mark Viduka was continually scrubbed and pulled down all day yet anytime the ball went near him he was penalised. There was a clear Handball a second time which should have been a certain penalty to Australia not picked up on, Ive seen the golden palm (maradonna once scored from his hand) and this was more blatant.
An Australian born Croatian player (bet he wishes he stayed in Aus) Josip Simunic was yellow carded 3 times by the end of the game, he was remarkably yellowed twice and able to stay on, he finally got his marching orders after his third yellow.

Hopefully FIFA take a long hard look at referee's Graham Poll and Markus Merk.


Poll and Merk should also consider name changes.

Poll was dreadful today and made constant bad decisions. Markus Merk has now put in two shockers, the Game where he crucified Australia against Brazil was bad however I watched the game between USA and Ghana this morning which he officiated in and it was worse. Both these gentlemen clearly need to be struck off whatever roster it is FIFA get there referees from.

It was worth the flex day off

Ticketmaster Suck.

This sent to Ticketmaster 6:55pm 2/6/06.
Just me whinging again to a major company who cant get it right!


I am absolutely disgusted in the manner in which the PULSE / TICKETMASTER ADVANCED pre sale by INTERNET only of Robbie Williams tickets has been handled.
I sat at my computer from 2pm today until after 3:30pm trying to purchase tickets to the concert at Subiaco. I am in Hobart and when I read that it went on sale at 12noon local time, I assumed that meant the Subiaco Concert was on sale from 12noon Perth time, being 2 oclock in Hobart.

I would estimate that I refreshed my screen over 1000 times.
On a few occasions the page would start to load rather than giving me the busy screen, after 10 to 15 minutes of trying to load I would get a page cannot be connected screen.
I had to return to work at 3:30pm I have since made it home at 6:15 to discover that the pre sale tickets are ALL GONE. And I am bloody furious.

The fact you don’t have enough bandwidth to handle a web only sale is poor in itself, my partner at one stage did try to ring only to find out that the lines were all busy and an engaged signal was all that could be heard, so that begs the question to me as to whether tickets were actually being sold over the phone and not solely on the internet as advertised?

I have also noticed that you released tickets to the ashes test’s yesterday and have had pearl jam tickets on sale for some venues within the last week.
At what point did you think the server was going to handle the traffic?
I can tell you from past experiences in trying to order tickets from your site it was never going to handle it, It’s a hopeless site at the best of times, full of lengthy waits and incorrect information. Try and find a seating chart for the DEC in Glenorchy under basketball mode and not concert mode for example…… Good luck!

What makes me the angriest is the fact I have had to play a luck game, my mouse click against everybody elses, the fact I had sat here for 90 minutes and the fact somebody else might have been lucky first go infuriates me and goes to show exactly how unfair this has been. Also the fact that on numerous occasions the site allowed me to progress past the “sorry busy screen” but because of lack of site speed only go onto time out.
Considering I have a 256 broadband connection it doesn’t say a lot for the condition of the site.

I request that you answer a few of my questions, it’s the least you can do.
A. How many seats are available for the Subiaco event in total?
B. How many of those are reserved seating gold as opposed to general?
C. What is the break down (number) of tickets made available for each section during the pre sale?
D. When the ticket sale began today was more bandwidth allocated to allow more people to purchase Robbie tickets say over the pearl jam tickets or ashes tests?
E. Did you honestly think it was going to take 36 hours to sell the tickets?
F. Are you going to apologise and compensate me when I have to go through the same process next week in the public sale to only miss out again?

I would appreciate a prompt reply please, before the public sale next week beginning Wednesday 7th June.

Extremely disappointed customer
