Correct.
I don't blame him for one minute.
The rhetoric from the Iraqi side changed in the last week or so to 'these boys will have to earn their way into the side' (they got two other players to switch allegiance too).
They then give Dario 25 minutes. Twenty five minutes of football to prove yourself.
They have played emotional mind games with these players and used the carrot of the World Cup to recruit some new prospects just to fuck them over.
It's shameful behaviour.

Agree with that, damn shame for the lad. Notice earlier in the thread Randall's name came up. It wouldn't matter if NZ unexpectedly got into the latter stages we wouldn't get anything. The compensation payments to go the club or clubs played for over the past two years and is calculated on a proportional basis. It's right good money though if you qualify. See Man C got c. £24 million at the last World Cup.

Yep, he's probably fucked his international future now too. There won't be,but there ought to be grounds for him to sue them for dicking him around.
