	Why soccer?
		Association Football was better know as "assoccer" and naturally evolved into "soccer" which is much easier for a schoolboy to say...
		The word "soccer", however, is engrained into the origins of the modern game of association football as much as any other aspect of The Game much of the world enjoys today.
		Finally, it must be remembered that British football, both association and rugby, had been organised in the 19th century by people in the upper echelons of the English educational system, from "exotic" schools, colleges and universities as Harrow, Eton, Oxford and Cambridge, just for starters.

	O'Neill: build the stadium - Soccer - www.theage.com.au
		Australian Soccer Association boss John O'Neill yesterday urged the Victorian Government to press on with a planned $100 million makeover for Olympic Park, whether or not the city gets the go-ahead for the fourth Australian Super 14 franchise.
		O'Neill, head of the Australian Rugby Union before being headhunted to run Australian soccer, argues that there is plenty of justification for building a 25,000-seat high-quality rectangular stadium in the heart of Melbourne's sporting precinct, irrespective of the decision his ARU successors make next month.
		But, says O'Neill, soccer has a much longer and deeper history in the state and deserves, along with the rugby league club Melbourne Storm, to have a purpose-built stadium to cater for the needs of its new A League club Melbourne Victory.

		O'Neill, who was hand-picked by Lowy, announced this week that the ASA had signed a three-year deal with U.S. sportswear giant Nike for kits, footwear and balls, giving a much-needed cash boost to the ASA.
