Hi, good afternoon there. I just read all the comments of the Nadeshiko thread since last Sunday, and I felt really uncomfortable witk some lukephan's comments, I think they are very innapropiate in a such peaceful and respectful thread as ours and that worries me, really. Hope you are doing well. Greetings from Guatemala. PS: I only needed to vent this feeling. Thank you.
I quite agree with you: I guess some of us tried to make him understand our feeling in a very Japanese way: polite, not too much direct, subtly ironic. If he doesn't soften his tone, though, I guess we'll have to address the matter in a more direct way.
I had a feeling, from some of his posts on the US boards during the World Cup (that I of course assume you didn't read), that there could have been some problematic moments. We're going to see how it develops.
Bilssett -- do you know what kawasumi's next move is, since being relased by Gotham? It sounded to me like she had plans, but may be it was a full retirement? (We were secretly hoping for a 2 month contract with the Reign!!)
On the Nadeshiko Japan's thread is being reported that she should join Albirex Niigata Ladies, a currently middle-to-bottom team of WE League (Professional Women's League in Japan).
Not sure why she chose that particular team (or that team chose her) because the part of her career she played in Japan had always been with INAC Kobe Leonessa, so I would have expected her to try to end her career there, but maybe, at her age, she wasn't in their plans anymore.
She was criminally under-used in her last season in Gotham: an end of career in the Reign would have been so nice and so reminiscent of the good old times!!! I am sorry it didn't happen.
Hi Bliss. I know a person that wants to join the Nadeshiko Thread but every time they try they get a message saying "you have insufficient privileges to reply here". They asked me for help since I joined the thread relatively recently but I never had that issue myself. It says you created the thread so I was wondering if you have any solutions.
Bliss i am trying to look for info on Italy's women's leagues. I have a friend there from our national team in the 2nd div. Is there a thread of it here?
There is a thread here, but it's not always kept updated, not even by me: https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/womens-league-in-italy.750278/page-46 Or you could try this blog, probably the best one in Italy dedicated to women's football, although of course the problem for you is that's in Italian: https://www.calciofemminileitaliano.it/

Hey bliss, since i'm back in the (Big Soccer forums) game late, have there been promotional adverts on the Nadeshiko? A lot of the other World Cup teams seem to have already, so i wonder if they have one too that i have missed while i was away.
Mmm, I didn't notice anything of the kind so far, but a nice video in English has been recently posted on the Nadeshiko Japan thread, where some players are interviewed about the upcoming World Cup. Stop by there too: we miss you on the Nadeshiko thread also! :)
Hi Blissett, hope all is well. To answer your question, the username is meaningless. Thank you for the question! Have a good time in Vienna, ja.
Thanks, already found another one at: http://live.robinwidget.org/streamvideo8/germany-w-vs-denmark-w-live-stream-4357173.html
Thank you very much... I don't follow tennis very much,but I am anyway aware when there are major tournaments events... ;)
hey bliss, i just want to share this video i made/conducted interviews of our WNT :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vfqrvu4HV-I hope you'll like it!
haha Palabok is a native specialty, and yes you are right, the more European looking girls, are Filipinos based in America so it's natural i guess they aren't familiar with the type of noodle although i guess i was hoping some of them were introduced to it by their families?
hehe anyway yes, the non-European looking ones are those who grew up here :) and as for "Malditas" we are trying to move away from that cos as you say it is quite confusing with Australia's Matildas. and that term in Filipino or Spanish, isn't a very good one.
I am aware of what "Malditas" mean in Spanish. That's why I thought that the confusion with "Matildas" was intentional. But If you're trying to moving away from that, nevermind.
LOL, I had seen the first part of it but I had skipped the part with the Italian player! :D Poor Giacomo Leopardi! His poetry has been slaughtered! XD
Quite embarassingly, I can't recognize her, with that glasses on. I know Nadeshiko players much better than my own country's ones. ^_^
Hi, Blissett. I tried reply to your PM on YT but you seem to block it. Please change the setting I have something to tell you.
Hi, typically on the bottom left hand corner of each post there is a "justice" symbol that looks like this: [IMG], you click it and a little window pops up giving you the option to either submit "positive" or "negative" reputation. I think you can give out 5 per day.
There was going to be a friendly smiley at the end, but I didn't have room - no, it was not ironic! I really found it interesting. :)
