Getting there...

Only six teams without a full complement, now, although the selection policies of several managers does puzzle me when there is good Phantasy talent on the sidelines.

So, as quickly as you can: Alfredo, Andy G, Bubba-fretts, Egon, Nirv, and Rich. Then we can get this business wrapped up by midweek, leaving me plenty of time for the prediction thread and some assorted Phantasy punditry.

I think you may have mis-typed my bid for Kuyt.

While we're at it can you please remove the extraneous 'e' from Mr Petrov, please

Looking at the team lists, has Julio Santa Cruz, the 18-year-old Blackburn Reserve really been bought for £7m? When his elder brother, the clubs star striker Roque, only cost £6m? Does Mr Pink Paisley realise which one he's bought?

No. I had no idea at all. I haven't heard of half my team.

Bugger.

Not knowing half of the team didn't seem to be a handicap for Sven G-E at Man City a couple of seasons ago when he was hugely successful (by Man City standards) before being sacked for not being hugely successful by Man Utd standards.

Ah, I see the ribbing has started.

Still waiting for bids from Bubba-fretts, who appears to have counting-up-to-four issues, and Nirv.

By the way, is anyone else having problems seeing the THREADFORUMINTRO marquee properly in Firefox 3? For me, the little chap only makes it a quarter of the way down the 'pitch' before disappearing.

B

Firefox 3? The little chap's probably dying of shame & embarassment.

Googling firefox and marquee retrieves 360,000 hits, so you're probably not alone!

Unlike Man City's chairman at the moment.

I dunno, isn't the next step to take a hit out on Mr Shiniwatsit?

It's not just you, B, the poor little chap seems to be having problems here too - unlike Martin Petrov
