    Australian-speak??? You don't fool me... you need to visit the country just like I did....stereotyping Aussies the way they are presented on UK TV? Pathetic..as I said, I visited Vienna, and Aussies speak a heavily accented type of English..couldn't understand the dialect myself. The other thing I found out by visiting is that they don't have beaches at all. The BBC and ITV have a lot to answer for.

    You should get out more, when City played in Zell am See we were on the beach before the match.

    The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

    My mistake, I visited my brother in Austria, not Australia. Easy to confuse the two.

    So you'll also have seen them draw with Denmark, beat the Czech Republic, thrash Albania and beat Bulgaria.

    Considering they're ranked 120th (though not for long), that's not a **** set of results. Those opponents are all at least 60 odd places above them.

    Another way of looking at it is that they are unbeaten in the last year with a smattering of impressive results against half decent opposition.

    Still, another half to go. It'll have to be at least double figures before I negotiate my stance...

    Much bigger fine than in the past...

    Sky News Breaking @SkyNewsBreak
    UEFA says Bulgaria have been ordered to play two matches behind closed doors - one suspended for two years - and fined €75,000 (£64,641) over the racist behaviour of fans during the Euro 2020 qualifier against England on 14 October.

    What an absolute joke. Embarrassing is an understatement. Massive deterrent that punishment.

    ****ing embarrassment.

    Nicolas Bendtner got fined more for wearing Paddy Power stuff.

    Five ****ing figures. Go **** yourself, UEFA. Shows how much of a **** you give about your own Respect campaign.

    Bentner's fine wasn't really a fine, they just took off him what he'd been paid for the stunt.

    When you consider the last fine for racist chanting, to Greece, was for £8,500, it's at least a move in the right direction. I suspect the Bulgarian FA aren't awash with cash and the head of the FA and the manager have already walked.

    Would be more acceptable if the fans caught chanting racist comments paid the fine!

    That'a hefty enough punishment for a country that's dirt poor by UEFA standards
