I reckon Reading are the best shot of the three. Although I wouldn't mind if it was Sheff U, a friend's brother is a director there.
I'm just a fan of Warnock, he's a classic British football character, the likes of which you don;t get much nowadays.

And they've just scored literally as I type this! :D

Not expecting much love from the Spurs fans :) Matthew Taylor rejected a move to Spurs, apparently our star player is a Spurs fan, we have a player who left Spurs for Arsenal, and we have the midfield of Spurs from when we finished above them.

Edit : Wahey goal for Toddy!

Same old same old as last season for the Arse.

Concede a sloppy goal from a corner, and fail miserably to break down the 11-men-behind-the-ball defending.

Luckily young Walcott came on and made the equaliser.

Must improve.

A POINT! IPSWICH HAVE A POINT!

Alright, it was against Hull, and they only have 1 point this season (from drawing with us), but that means roughly only another 47 to be safe...

So Hearts have lost their way somewhat - oh well, back to reality again. At least you'll be happy, Zen!

Leeds lost 1-0 today at home against Cardiff. Attendance was below 20k. And at the end the crowd started to boo the team and the manager. Not one to react, but I think the pressure is mounting on Blackwell already; if this carries on with all the money he has spent on the team, I think he may be out of a job at Xmas. Which right now, is probably the best thing that could happen. Bad... :x

Handily, I picked Kirkland as my Fantasy Football goalkeeper. I really should have known better, shouldn't I?

Anyway, I'll take that start to the season. Although, why people were predicting 3 and 4-0 in the Evening Chronicle is, frankly, far beyond my meagre levels of comprehension.

Have we signed any strikers, yet?

Nah but talk is it will be Martins at the beginning of the week. Add Bridge and Gravesen to that and I'd be more than happy......TBH sign Andreas Anderson or Stephan Guivarche and I'd be happy right now :?


Maybe there is a reason for the drawn out player negotiations though....

Can anyone say why the West Ham defender wasn't sent off for a deliberate handball? The linesman (ok, referee's assistant) saw it to give the penalty. He should have walked. I'm glad I'm not a Charlton fan.
Is this going to take long, only my foot's gone to sleep and I'd like to catch it up.

Nice to see some of the minnows off to a good start. Reading 3 pts, the Blades 1, Pompey get 3 and my irons get 3 too. Well chuffed with that lot. Can I say come on Fulham. :lol: :P
