Germany 2006 - The Dream Is Over But The Memories Stay On Forever
~
The Socceroos not only forced the world to sit up and take notice, Australia itself is now without doubt a football nation..Where else can you find tens of thousands of fans all over the country venturing out at two and five o'clock in the morning in the middle of winter to watch every game at large outdoor venues and share each emotional moment especially
when you consider that all the matches were shown live on free to
air television? SENSATIONAL! This proud sporting nation has
never seen an event like it rest assured, these scenes will be repeated
every time the Socceroos are in action anywhere around the world.
Football has finally arrived in Australia - BIG TIME.

Thanks Guus - Forever An Aussie
What can anyone say about Guus?
How can he possibly be replaced?
All Australia can now do is learn from
the experience and do whatever it takes
to build on his legacy. Solid proof is
there for everyone to see that the
sporting public of  this country DOES
have as much passion for the game
as any other. There is a firm
platform to build on and nothing can
stop or derail the Socceroo Express
from reaching its rightful destination
at the peak of Australian sport

Australia finally got to the football carnival for the first time in 32 years~~
