Bristol Boy Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Another penalty for Luke. What's the point in dragging blokes half way around the world to compete in a cup that the Rovers.......er, alright then.................Dagenham & Redbridge could win?? This thing makes the LDV look like the World Cup! What's the next match? Australia v The Turks & Caicos Islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest redrobin108 Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 The olympic games is not a mickey mouse event. Any sportsman wants to play for his country and to have the chance to represent your country is every sportsman dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilkshires costing us big wages and we can't play him, plus there's the opportunity for injury,playing against teams that clearly aren't up to much. I'm all for including everyone in sport, but there are limits and competitors should be of a certain standard, even for qualifying tournaments. Anyway, can't stop, I'm off the play Andre Agassi in the qualifiers for the Olympic Tennis Tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Wilkshires costing us big wages and we can't play him, plus there's the opportunity for injury,playing against teams that clearly aren't up to much. The club knew the deal when we signed him. One of the reasons for him leaving Boro was because he was not playing as often as he would have liked. This was in turn harming his chances of playing for his country, so decided to move. It's not as if Wilkshire playing for Austrailia was kept a big secret was it.

bcfc seattle Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Have to agree with Taz, it was a known probability that he was going to go for the month before we signed him, at least no one pulled a Kanoute and said oh I'm now _______ . and am going to go away to play for a month.

x3widRacin Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 It's better than having him go all the way out there and not playing at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
