Unlike that Parrot who got every game but the final right...
They said the octopus only tipped the Germany games & the final, 8 all upQuote:

The parrot picked the Netherlands. I guess that bird's now KFP. ;)
Paul the psychic octopus headed for sweet life of retirement
Pity he's only got a lifespan of about 6 months.Quote:
AFP reported one tongue-in-cheek bookmaker offered odds of 8-1 that he becomes a bookmaker himself, 20-1 that he releases a record, 100-1 that Paul unveils his own brand of calamari, 250-1 the octopus becomes Merkel's (German Chancellor) new adviser and 1,000-1 he ends life as part of a paella.
If I owned Paul I'd stick a thousand on the paella option and then cook him myselfQuote:

As much as I don't like him, he's one of the most natural strikers to have played the game.
i saw him last year (against SFC) whilst in a loosing team (5-0) i think he still was one of the smoothest players i have seen or played against its a shame his team mates couldnt keep up... worth going to see him playQuote:

They'll beat better teams than Central Coast once they gel.
Fowler's a class act even at his age - he's certainly capable of shining in the A-League. A fine pick up for Perth.
Well I'm lucky to still have a TV after that lose to the bunnies last night:(
