Floods in Queensland. ;)

 

Anyone mind fixing the spelling of Australia in the title please? :)

 

Just to expand on this...

 

Yes, he did that due to the Floods in Queensland, Australia.

 

There have been massive flooding happening throughout the state, lives lost etc. This gesture was to encourage people to call in and make a donation for a relief fund.

 

Tim has gone a little further with his charity and has put a few things up for auction in one package known as The Tim Cahill Everton Experience:

All I can really say about the result is...THANK FUCK!

If we didn't win this by more than 3 goals, it would not have bode well...hell, I'm seeing a lot of stupid comments complaining that we didn't win 7-0!

 

The real test will be when we play Korea. If we can win that, then things are looking up!

I do hope that Park plays shit though. My Manure mate reckons he'll skin us! Some Socceroos fan he is...

 

Done. :)

Thanks mate! ;)

That's quite a prize :o .

 

I'd have a bid.....but then I'd have to fly to Oz to get the flights back so a bit pointless really :unsure: .

 

Saw some more of the flooding on the news this morning, looks dreadful, anyone here involved/near it (Pat was/is Queensland I think).

From the OS...

 

Cahill's exit was an enfored one after he picked up a knock, the midfielder is waiting to see how serious the problem is.

 

"I'll find out tonight," he said. "For me, if it's serious, then I'll get through it, but I honestly don't know. I took a few knocks and hopefully I'll pull through."

Yeah, I'm from Ipswich, one of the towns hit. We were pretty lucky where we are, but we have been cleaning up Goodna, a suburb of Ipswich which got smashed. My mate lives there, bought the house a couple of months ago, the river had to rise by like 11 metres for the water to even get in his house, 2 storeys under, the Rugby League posts which are across the road from him were under water. We went to his house in a tinny (boat) to start the clean up. It's terrible out there.
