Corky Posted 5 December 2008 Posted 5 December 2008 Do they still play their instruments whilst the match is in progress?

Finnegan Posted 6 December 2008 Posted 6 December 2008 Surely if you're paying to organize this and jet teams from all over the world it'd be better to pay to rehabilitate the homeless? And if they have, then surely they aren't homeless anymore and thus aren't eligible.

Yeah but what value would the sponsors get by just rehabilitating these people, but following on from that they do actually seek to help people with there problems, mainly acholic and drud related issues. It also done as an awarness sort of campaign that most of these players are normal human beings that have just falling on tough times. A hotel is not a home but i did find it funny
davieG Posted 6 December 2008 Posted 6 December 2008 We should have a House owners World Cup all things being equal and all that.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 8 December 2008 Author Posted 8 December 2008 I think Afghanistan won, which is a bit unfair as 99% of there population is homeless
