h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Coming into the penultimate week of the summer competition, and most of the teams in this week's list will have a more familiar ring to them than the likes of Partizani Tirana. And about f**king time too, I hear you say

Well here we go -


Rangers v Everton
Bradford v Coleraine
AS Roma v Fulham
Scunthorpe v Nottingham Forest
Morecambe v Wolverhampton Wanderers


And just on the off chance that you aren't familiar with the names of all of those teams, Scunthorpe you will find is a town in North Lincolnshire. It's near Hull but not quite.

The closing date for your selections is 12noon on Saturday 26th July.

All the best

Thank you for that geographical exactitude.

Sorry about Pools Panel business - I know it was only Friday night when I posted, but I was on the Saturday early shift at work, and I suddenly realised I had to go to bed to have any hope of having a decent shift and wouldn't have the time to research Major League Soccer at work because we're a bit busy what with the Open Golf...

Bradford 3 v 1 Coleraine (Windass)
Roma 3 v 0 Fulham (Totti)

Sorry about being away for a while and all the pools panels stuff. I don't mind if the scores from the ones given to me while I was away are removed. (Have just been catching up on backlog)

Surely you mean Dave 'Jocky' McJohnson, the most Scottish man ever to be born in Jamaica?

Yep thats the one, the man who makes Jerk McChicken (Wasn't he going to play for Northern Ireland or Wales last season?)

Hey der man, it's rice and beans and haggis this week!

* does quick count *

It seems that we are only missing Egon so far this week.

And Tonto, if you've been are you sure that drinking is such a good idea

Always works for me. Eight pints of and a red-hot curry will cure any ailment known to mankind.

B

...apart of course from being crap at predicting football results

Yeah, but it makes me feel a whole lot better about getting them wrong.

I must be guaranteed a couple of points this week. I can't see the Iron beating or even drawing with an allegedly full-strength Forest side.

B

Amazingly, it looks as though no-one predicted Morecambe 6, Wolves 1!
