The Brown I predicted?

Excellent. Top scorer in the whole world ever? Who'd predict them??

And the match commentary has just gone tits up

Actually it was damn hard to make head or tail of what was going on. The two guys doing it sounded like they were using a mobile phone to relay it back from the Barnet ground. Plus there was loads and loads of crowd noise, including all the 'industrial' comments one normally gets from the terraces

I shall wait for a minute or two longer to see if normal service is resumed. If not, I shall go and do something more useful instead such as going through my overloaded e-mail inbox - a big job that

As is often the way when you only have a couple of games to predict, some folk have mucked it up entirely whereas others have come through with some pretty tasty points. All that said, Clist's injury time winner for Barnet really delivered the points in this round - 8 folk picked up two points on that one

Number Six - Blissfully unaware of anything that is going on around him

-----------

So a big round of for WILD BIRIYANI. You are our early season leader

Poor Number 6.

Well, at least he's blissful.

I wonder if he even knows we're abusing him on this thread?

B

Oh, and I'd like to celebrate being 4 points ahead of Ormy while it lasts.

B

Ah, I'm sure the useless twat will find out sooner or later...

Abusing him on this thread? Hell, I'm abusing him on ALL the threads hereabouts

And well done Master B. You've made a cracking start to the competition

And finally, after spending season 9 in his shadow, I'd like to say...

EAT MY DUST TODD_ABRAHAM87!!!

Heh, I feel so cool.

"Ah, I'm sure the useless twat will find out sooner or later"

Egon...have you actually checked your points tally this week?

B

Look, I didn't say I *wasn't* useless now, did I?

The words 'pot' and 'kettle' sprung to mind, that's all...

B

You know, my kettle's actually white? And if my pot was black, it would mean I'd been a bit over-enthusiastic with the lighter

I think you've mislaid the analogy somewhere there.

B

And another thing, I'd have had to have moved onto something stronger than the pot if it had started talking *at all*, never mind inaccurately labelling the kettle as black...

I never did like Barnet. Underhill was absolutely the worst Third Division ground I ever visited as a Leyton Orient supporter, which is saying something. And now the ers have done me out of three points, and presented two points to several other players, with a 90th minute winner. ing typical.

Ah well. to Luke Rodgers of Shrewsbury Town for saving me from a .

You know,all these mentions of Shrewsbury are bringing back bad memories

What happened to you in Shrewsbury then Egon

It's not what happenbed to me iNS hrewsbury (only been there once,s emed like a dump), it's what happened to Everton in Shrewsbury...

Nigel f*cking Jemson...

Incidentally, I notice that there was no Guinan in the Hereford line-up tonight, which thwarted many of our predictions. Very , since the team news on the BBC Football site said that they didn't have any injury problems.
