Or is it okay to be down 4-0 because it's Germany?

It's never ok to be down 4-0.

Words simply don't describe how sh*t Holman is

Probably because they would be inaccurate. There are about six or seven other guys in the squad who deserve to be there less than him.

As I said, given that neither actually warmed up I think it's safe to assume they weren't fit to take their place.

There's plenty of things you can blame Pim for, this isn't one of them.

Didn't they say they warmed up in the dressing rooms?

Yes, they did say that.

4-0 is quite flattering. If Kalac was in-goal ... actually I'd rather not think about it.

Is Cahill gone for 2 matches? If so we are totally borked. Maybe Pim knew we were going to get lapped so he is keeping Kewell, Kennedy and Bresciano fresh for the games we CAN win. 6 points will see us through.

If that has a skerric of truth he should be sacked immediately.

There's no excuse for conceding a horrific loss because you're too gutless to try and win.

They said they made some phone calls and that's what they were told. I'm sure the full story will come out over the next day or so.

We'll see.

Either way, I hate the idea of heading in with three defensive mid-fielders. It's basically a decision not to bother asking the opposition defense any questions.

Red cards are an automatic 1 match ban. I assume that will be all, because in all reality you would have called it harsh if the card was yellow, let alone red.

Yes, it's a ban but if there is a avenue, we should appeal.

We copped 2 tough breaks- the no penalty on the handball followed by cahills red
