Welcome aboard Retro, Just add your predictions to this weeks games by Saturday 10am UK time on this thread, and you are in the game. BTW you'll start with 2 points as i'll assume your previous entries for the past two weeks were all nil nil selections.
Good luck

Gedge, if you're organising this thing, why do you not enter/ Are you embarrassed that we'll lose all respect for you if you don't do very well?

Gedge :-) Posted Oct 2, 2001
I played this at work and I was awful, my record was 1 point in 3 weeks. I even had Man U Vs Derby as a home win (3-0 I think) and Derby the spawny gits won 
. People would look at my predictions and go the opposite way 
. No, I know my place and I'll stick to organising the game, though I may be tempted to come out of retirement next season

Er, can I change one of my predictions? I've just remembered that Michael owen's injured so can I say David Beckham for first England goal instead?
