You've clearly not been watching the BBC World News where they have just screened the interview with him. Seems there is global interest!

Personally, I think they can both coexist & while I have serious problems with the way that FIFA manage the game & the absurd situation of grown men diving around, all in the belief that if they stay down long enough, they'll con the ref.........I will watch both rugby & soccer. Both sports have their own aspects to appreciate, but the fact that NZ is holding what I consider to be a very successful world cup, really bothers you, doesn't it.
Bingo. Unforuntaely any anti British feeling in NZ is usually due to the likes of barnsley and his attitude. What he doesn't realise is negative energy attracts negative energy. Unless he wants his life in NZ to be full of discontentment, friendless and unable to fit in he should pack his ego away for a while and learn that this is NZ not a small version of Britain. NZ is a collection of small Pacific Islands. If you can accept that barnsley you will then be able to expand your vision enough to enjoy other pastimes that may give you a great deal of pleasure. Good like with your future.

Shocking thought packing all of our belongings up and travelling 1/2 way round the World to end up in Britain lookalike Not expecting that and do not want it... Having seen what the sad Brits have done to Spain and Greece "British Pub" "English Breakfast" then do you think they could actually do the same with NZ?

Watching TV today I thought TVNZ had introduced a Dan Carter memorial channel !!!
"A nation in grieving".......they'll be having an official day of mourning next
We thought it was bad in the UK when Beckham broke his foot, but it wasn;t 20 minute headline news

My god, please stop taking everything I post deadly serious. It's just a bit of fun. If you have read everything I've posted you'd realise I've watch the RWC, I was actually going to go to the Eng v Sco game and I've been to watch local League sides play.

It's a good job you don't read my Facebook posts, I think you'd combust in fits of anger if you take the stuff I put on here serious.

You're allowed to take the Michael out of the locals, they do it enough with me and I give it back to them. Maybe that's why the Kiwi's like my cheeky Northern humour especially in my accent.

If I'd wanted to move to a miniature version of Britain I'd have moved to Browns Bay aka Benidorm Bay.

In a thread where someone mentions these:

wearing face paints
dressing as a mountie
dancing to Shania Twain
dancing to Bryan Adams
wearing flamenco
listening to Julio Iglesias
Morris dancing
Kilt wearing fatties
Cheese eating surrender monkeys

You actually think they're being 100% deadly serious?

No wonder the locals think us Brits are stuck up.
