Australian Football Players Abroad

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

Our online poll in 2008 indicated Australian players wanted to trial and play their football in Europe, in particular the English Premier League. We did some research to locate where Australian football players were based. The results may surprise you. Our results are based on findings for the 2008 season.

Scotland : 10 players : Ireland : 3 players : England : 50 players : Spain : 1 player : Norway : 3 players : Denmark : 3 players : Holland : 6 players : Poland : 1 player : Germany : 9 players : Switzerland : 2 players : Croatia : 2 players : Hungary : 2 players : Italy : 7 players: Servia : 1 player : Macedonia : 1 player: Greece : 3 players : Cyprus : 1 player : Turkey : 3 players : Romania : 1 player : Georgia : 1 player: Japan : 4 players : China : 1 player : Malaysia : 1 player : USA : 6 players.

It is worth noting that of the 50 Australian football players, playing in England, only 23 of the players were involved in the English Premier League, 27 playing in the lower tiers and 5 of the 50 players were playing in the sixth tier in England.

For many young Australian born players the “rest of the world”  may be their only way of playing in the English Premier League due to new FA (Football Association) and FIFA regualtions regarding foreign players signing contracts in England coming from Australia.

Football Players’ Hairs

Monday, May 24th, 2010

Numerous people take their hairs very seriously. Among football fans, the way football players color, cut, part, and curl their hairs is considered very admirable.

David Beckham, the captain of England football team, has always been changing his hair styles, which is now causing horrible damages to his hair. Beckham’s fans that followed him in terms of hair styling are also faced with the hair loss problem.

Fans of Michael Ballack, the footballer from Germany, have reportedly copied his hair style.

What can stop the Brazilian fans from getting inspired by Ronaldinho’s long curly hairs? Even after getting warned by their hair specialists, quite a big number of Ronaldinho fans attempted to have their hairs like him. Only few of them ended up with healthy hairs.

Even after knowing that they are not looking decent with their soccer stars’ hair styles, millions of football fans continue to have their favorite footballers’ hair styles. They even don’t consider the harm their type of scalp may suffer from having hair styles that may not be damaging to the type of scalp their favorite soccer players possess.

So, if you are a football fan, you can try copying your favorite soccer star’s hair as long as it is not causing you hair loss. If you yourself are a soccer player then you should know this:

• Excessive sun exposure from weekend soccer games can transform healthy hair into a brittle, filmy mess that may last for months.

• Damage is more common in the players who have blonde hairs.

So you should consult your hair specialist on regular basis. One of the things the hair expert will most probably advice you is the use of a good hair sunscreen. Strictly follow the expert’s advises; you may be the next Beckham.

Chris McGrath: The greatest players of all are battling it out – and the World Cup hasn’t started yet
It may be too credulous an instinct, at the end of a week when the duel for the title itself stimulated less curiosity than one between Tottenham and Manchester City, for the privilege of losing to Werder Bremen in August. But is it possible that a fissure of hope is beginning to divide the final reckoning from the bottom line?
