Will be travelling down from Waikeire on the night and travelling back on the same night for work the next day.

Now does that make me a fan or a supporter or both

It sucked that we could only buy a max of 4, as we wanted to buy more, but still good.

care ozzie english can convert an adjective to be used as a noun or even visa versa. ie a Cocky can be Cocky. or a Fan can be Fanatical...

fan/supporter are the same thing, it's if you're full of it or not that really counts.

Mafau has done a marvellous job getting those tickets

They sold out in an hour, not too shabby.

No, no, that just wouldn't do. I helped someone here at work get online in time to get some tickets - they tried last week, and thought they were all sold out. In return for my assistance, I asked that if anyone pulled out from their group, I could get first go at their tickets.

Little story off the AFC website - talking about General Manager of Gamba Osaka, Shiro Kurawara:

Turning to the present, Kuwahara prophesied that Gamba would win the AFC Champions League title.

“Last night I dreamt that our team had won the title against Adelaide United 3-1,” said Kuwahara.

This prompted the Adelaide representative in the audience to ask him who scored for Gamba in the game so that “we can mark him”.

Pat came the reply from Kuwahara: “(Takahiro) Futagawa, (Yashuhito) Endo and (Masato) Yamazaki…” as the delegates burst into laughter.

Gamba play Adelaide United in the AFC Champions League final on November 5 and 12.
