:eek: Is your real name Sven by any chance? :ban:

********** said:Of course you heard that story. You'll hear a lot of anti-Iranian propaganda whenever they play. They're the axis of evil, remember. We're all the good guys.
The TRUTH is, the Iranian team despise their government along with 90% of the Iranian population. 100,000 fans BOOED AHMADINEJAD when he appeared at an Iran qualifier at Teheran's Azadi:
This team DOES NOT REPRESENT their government, they represent the people of Iran, back street soccer in comparatively impoverished cities... this team is the people's team... if you want to root against the Iranian government, don't root against this team because they - and their Balkan born coach - are eternally at bitter odds with the stifling Iranian federation and Iranian government.
Marco Van Basten's dutch team do not represent the new right wing Dutch government.
Lippi's Italy do not represent Berlusconi (nor do Milan).
Ivory and Angola do not stand for either side in their nations' civil wars.
And our USA team do not BY ANY MEANS stand for Bush or our military or whatever. The same right wing that boots out soccer loving immigrants and self-assuredly claims soccer will NEVER be big here? No way.
A team does not represent its government unless they openly declare so. A team represents the PEOPLE. Remember that.
I will be cheering for Iran as they are my home country and as - like any country - the people of Persia are good people, and generally NOT fascists by any stretch of the imagination: they are socialists more than anything, if any "ist" applies.
