Mike Cockerill got his FFA Award this week, and fair play to him. You do the time, 30 years - you
get an award.
I'm no fan of Mike's football analysis, he knows that - his tactical and player movements on and
around the park leave a lot to be desired for this football fan. I grew up in the UK!
Harry Kewell is back to play in Australia, in the A-League and I like most other football fans are
delighted.
Sure on Twitter, The Australian's Ray Gatt and surprisingly The Age's Mick Lynch, have been
defending the so-called "opinion piece" from Sydney Morning Herald writer and Fox Sports
Commentator Mike Cockerill on Harry's return - oh how Mike despises Harry.

And even the SMH are into it. Lisa De Vanna getting the treatment in the SMH today, yesterday great
piece on Kyah Symon.
Matildas - making real in roads into the Aussie sporting community.
Cop this, Jesse Fink, SBS Leading football writer, get's stuck into Mike Cockerill SMH@s leading
football writer for Mike's piece on Frank Lowy.
What makes me laugh is that Jesse and Mike have both written to me, Jesse somewhat abusively, Mike
somewhat aggressively telling me to desist in criticism of them both and what they write.
How come all the organisers of football, the media, the FFA, the whole lot of em run everything out
of Sydney...or so it seems.
So tonights plan to "Save the Game" or some other such football fanfest, while of course an
interesting intiative - but we hold it in Sydney.
Reckon Adelaide would have been better - at least they'd get a few fans!
Anyone else notice Harry Kewell smiling just a little more in Qatar....hmmn than say at the World
Cup.
With Robbie Slater sent to watch Central Coast Mariners, (is that in Qatar?) and Mike Cockerill yet
to send a report for the SMH (is he commentating?) I'm beginning to wonder if Harry has bigger
powers than we thought or the Mike and Robbie are running for cover!
