Sucking his thumb apparantly a tribute to his son.
Hiddink says no to parade

Socceroos coach Guus Hiddink sets exacting standards - and by his reckoning reaching the second round does not warrant a victory parade.
With the Socceroos eliminated from the World Cup in controversial circumstances by Italy today, Hiddink is already looking ahead to his next post in Russia.
The Dutchman, embraced by Australians for guiding the national football side to the ultimate stage, refused to succcumb to sentiment.
"I won't go back for a parade just for making it to the second round," he said.
