Talk:Tim Cahill

message: Why all the references to Khara? I assume it's arab slang for sh~t and he's scored twice against Egypt. How about some moderation? How do you pronounce his name? I understand we've been calling him 'kay-hill' all these years, but I think he recently said it was called 'car-hill'. Someone evaluate?
::I think this is down to his Australian accent. When he was at Millwall, we always refered to him as "kay-hill", but I think I'm right in saying that Cahill is an Irish name, so we need an Irish Wikipedian on the "correct" way to pronounce it. But having said that, if Tim says it's "car-hill" then the way he pronounces it, would be the correct way. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Lion King 03:07, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. I have moved the references to his children (and his car!!?) out of the "Early Life" section and back into "trivia". These facts are more suited to that section - they certainly aren't part of his early life. Would quite like to get rid of the car reference altogether (it reads like a plug for the manufacturer) but I guess someone finds it interesting125.63.139.142 15:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Do not fear, i just added the international goals box, hope you like it. I think i got all his goals, and stadiums correct. Thanks, ill keep adding more Goal boxes to more international aussie footballs. check my page to see other aussie footballers that i have edited for goals. Nath1991 (talk) 04:41, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

In this article it alludes to Tim Cahill wanted to respresent Ireland. There is no quotes from the player or either of the national teams governing bodies expressing an interest in Cahill playing for Ireland.
Cahill himself says "My father checked with the Australian FA at the time and was told that taking part would not affect my international ambitions."
Giving more evidence that he wishes to play for Australia and not Ireland.
I don't think the article is enough evidence to suggest Cahill's previous ambition to play for the Irish national team.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.81.18.30 (talk) 06:23, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

message: "In this role he scored 2 goals in 3 games, both in 1-0 victories away to Manchester City and Middlesbrough, as well as a late equaliser in the Merseyside Derby"
If he kicked both goals in the 1-0 wins to Man City and Middlesbrough as well as an equaliser against Liverpool is three goals.
In fact I think the importance of this three goals (or two) in particular are worthy of being mentioned  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.219.110.253 (talk) 09:34, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  What is wrong with you people 

message: I'm confused about whether Cahill played for the Samoa U-17s or the U-20s when he was 14. I've read a few different articles and they seem to give conflicting information about this. One of the references on his page even suggests that he played twice for the U-20s and not just once. Can anybody clear this up? Christophee (talk) 00:15, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

message: "the first official time in their history."
What does this mean? If it is a reference to Millwall reaching the war Time Cup where they lost to Chelsea then it would need to be expanded on. If it is not expanded on it adds nothing to the article as I doubt that everyone who comes to this article knows the history of Millwall. 86.42.17.30 (talk) 10:42, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: In American sports, a clutch goal/home run/basket is a late score that affects the result of a game. Cahill has scored a few such goals this season.
