As I'm here I might as well post up the final round of boring games -- Week 11 features UK pre-season friendlies smiley - ok

This week is all American, including a game by our old favourites, Charleston Battery ( YAY!!! )


DC United v San Jose Earthquakes
Columbus Crew v Kansas City Wizards
Chicago Fire v New England Revolution
Dallas Burn v MetroStars
Charleston Battery v Rochester Raging Rhinos


Closing date - 12noon Saturday 19th July.

BTW it's the score after 90 minutes of regular play that counts. Anything the the MLS decide to play in 'overtime' to avoid having a drawn result will be ignored smiley - ok

Two lots? Christ!

Any chance of a couple of Scunthorpe friendlies? We've got a nice line-up pre-season, including a Man Utd XI, Forest and Villa.smiley - ok

And I've already updated A822881

Ok, your game against Forest is on my list smiley - ok

Sadly the Manchester and Villa games are mid week, so not easily incorporated into a list of matches.

Fair point.

We'll probably get mullered by Forest; we always do.smiley - sadface

How about Argyle v West Brom, 2nd August? Should be an interesting one with them just down from the Premiership and we'll have played Charlton a few days earlier... I reckon we can do 'em.

That seems perfectly reasonable. Consider it added smiley - ok

Actually it's rather good that you've come up with that suggestion. In the original list that I worked out a few weeks back, I had both Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday booked in to play friendly matches at home on that Saturday. The opposition? Middlesborough and Newcastle United respectively smiley - yikes

Suffice to say the Pigs match has been moved to Friday, and hence is now dropped from my list.

I am very, VERY tempted to ask for a Pools Panel after the farce of the previous two weeks (0 points combined after some sensible guessing), but out of deference to sportsmanship and whatnot, I think I'd better go for the hat-trick.

DC United 1-0 San Jose Earthquakes (Etcheverry)
Columbus Crew 2-1 Kansas City Wizards (McBride)
Chicago Fire 0-1 New England Revolution (Joe Max-Moore, obviously)
Dallas Burn 0-2 MetroStars (Clark)
Charleston Battery smiley - eureka 1-0 Rochester Raging smiley - grr Rhinos (Donnelly)

Thank heaven for a reliable website, for once. Even if it doesn't appear to have any league tables on it.smiley - erm

OK, so is anyone else going to post a selection? Or are you just going to ignore it and give Master B his best ever chance of coming up as the weekly winner smiley - winkeye

For the benefit of those who have trouble reading. The first post includes the phrase, "Closing date - 12noon Saturday 19th July."

Looking at my watch I make that the thick end of 12 hours away!


I despair sometimes, I really do..... smiley - headhurts
