I like both signings nothing flashy but good.
Black Death you guys are coming over for a friendly at the end of the month in our new stadium.

Sweet mate - our two countries a pretty close (no homo) so should be truly a friendly.
Apologies - haven't dropped in on this forum for a while - life has interrupted which happens.
Hope Kewell and Neill gave you some good service - believe Harry did for a while at least. As you say his career is basically shot and now he's cashing in his celebrity over here while he can. The game just isn't big over here so he'll be a big fish in a small bowl. At the moment its the AFL season over here so I've been following that - that's the biggest winter sport out here and the players who play it are loved much more here than "soccer" players. Went to a fantastic AFL game in Melbourne last weekend and can see why "soccer" will never get a foothold out here among the greater sporting public. "Aussie" Rules is just built into the fabric of the community out here and watching it you can see why.
Obviously I follow 'Pool and the Jets so I can follow some type of football year round which is great for me.
Cold as a seal's cod bag right now so I'll sign off.
