A happy-go-lucky English rambler dude goes to New Zealand for a year. Here he interfaces with some of those he left behind and details his nefarious activities. Or summat.

I may be getting influenced by the Rugby types in the bars where i've been watching the World Cup, but doesn't there seem to be more & worse diving going on than ever before? Rather than watching out for pieces of "Liquid football" i find myself analysing every tackle for signs of diving.
In particular the South Korea Vs Portugal game last night. That second sending off was awful! Then, down to 9 men, Portugal attempted to get back into the game, not by using their silky skills, no, but by attempting to out-dive the South Koreans, Fernando Couto making an especially lame, defenders effort at one.
Having said all this, if England get through with any kind of dodginess, i may delete this post! Though i contest Roberto Martinez's opinion that Owen dived to get our penalty versus the Argies, it was a definite trip. Honest guv.
