Here's a few for you then. So get on with it then.

Spurs v Chelsea
Wolves v Southampton
Grimsby Town v Sheffield Wednesday
Brechin City v Ayr United - as requested here: F61824?thread=398700

Closing date 12noon on Saturday, 3rd April.

Don't expect me to post the results up early. I'm going to be in Sheffield that afternoon to watch the Mighty Blades cut Forest into little chunks and serve 'em up kebabed with minty yogurt (hopefully ). And it's a long drive home afterwards.

I thought you were going to have six this week to make up for the portugese debacle? And have you complketely ignored the FA Cup semifinals for a reason?

I made no mention of six for this week. In fact until you came in with a specific request, I was thinking of having a mid-season break this week.

Ah, I was obviously just presuming then, and thanks for the "battle of the Former Blue Brasilians" inclusion

Blue Brasilian ??

Surely you've heard of The Blue Brazil - aka Cowdenbeath?

Newcastle 2 - 1 Everton (Shearer)
Spurs 1 - 2 Chelsea (Keane)
Wolves 1 - 2 Southampton (Rae)
Grimsby Town 2 - 1 Sheffield Wednesday (Olsen)
Brechin City 2 - 1 Ayr United (P Campbell)

and cowden legends Craigie Winter and Graeme "Broony" Brown recently joined brechin and Ayr respectively.

I hope for Brechin fans' sake that Craig Winter has a more imaginative nickname.

Newcastle 2-2 Everton (Rooney, and the Geordie bastards will equalise in stoppage time)
Spurs 0-1 Chelsea (Gudjohnsen- are they picking him?)
Wolves 0-2 Southampton (Phillips- is he iin their team at the moment?)
Grimsby Town 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday
Brechin City 3-2 Ayr United (broony! broony!) [that's a prediction for Johannesburg's finest, Graeme Brown, to score by the way. And only because Craigie doesn't seem to score too often this season {or at least not when he was with the Blue Brazil} and he scored two weeks ago]

Newcastle 2-0 Everton - Shearer
Spurs 0-3 Chelsea - Hasselbaink
Wolves 0-3 Southampton - Beattie

Ormandroyd......I dint know they called em "the blue brazilians"s" !!

Tottenham 1-3 Chelsea (Lampard)

Grimsby 0-2 Sheff Wed (Ndumbu-Nsungu)
Brechin 2-2 Ayr Utd (Hardy)

The team is "the blue brazil". Players and supporters are referred to as "blue Brazilians", programme is called "The Blue Brasilian".

The name is widely seen as a joke about the state of the team's football for most of the last fifty years, but there is a quite clearly flase story about the club record win being achieved due to three Brazilian illegal immigrants, who played after the manager told the ref they were normal players who hadn't had a chance to have a wash after going down the mine (not very enlightened, 1920s Fife) and they proceeded to score all the goals in the (I think) 9-2 win, before getting promptly deported.

Hopwever, since that story is quite obviously crap, I don't know why I botehred telling you.

The team actually ahve an away kit which is the same as the Brazilian home kit- have a look at http://www.cowdenbeathfc.com

"Hopwever, since that story is quite obviously crap, I don't know why I botehred telling you."

Hmmm...it could have something to do with the fact that you always tell us crap stories...

Well, yeah, there is that.

And how are you enjoying fatherhood?

It's not a bad film...
