Seems like everyone wants to come to Australia on a pre-season tour, with Mark Schwarzer’s Fulham already confirming a three-game visit and suggestions that newly-promoted Wolves might soon follow. Elsewhere, Mark Bosnich is close to signing a short-term deal to play for NSW Premier League side Sydney Olympic and Mariners’ Lawrie McKinna says he hasn’t got anything against foreigners (which is good considering he is one himself…) Trevor Treharne Deputy editor, Australian FourFourTwo PS : The June issue of FourFourTwo is on sale now - or subscribe now. This month we chat to Socceroo Mark Schwarzer about how he’s not taking World Cup qualification for granted, get the skinny from Graham Arnold about what went wrong in the Asian Cup and Olympics, and we chat to overseas fans about what they think of Australian footballers on their teams. |
