As much as it pains me to
say it, well done Andrew,
especially for the 10's
of text messages during
last nights game to
confirm your league
status. If you ever meet
Andrew he looks a bit
like Zidane, so watch out
when he lowers his head
!! Thanks again everyone
for entering, see you in
4 years.....

Steve - You ask if you
can really want the
cheese eating surrender
monkeys (and now
headbutting thugs) to
win. Simple answer - NO
!!

So if France win, I get
3rd place and leave Steve
Kelley for dust. But
then France will have won
more World Cups than
England - and it is
France after all - can I
really want them to win?

Two entries in the top

Very interested to see
from Mr Smith's e-mail
that it is a 4 horse race
between 5 people. Maths
was never his strong
point.

I can't believe it -
again. Do you know,
after going all that time
with 10 men and making it
to the penalty shootout,
I thought this time would
be different, and then
Lampard stepped up to
take a penalty! And that
Ricardo - I'd spent all
World Cup thinking he was
OK - then I realised I'd
forgotten the previous
penalty shootout with
Portugal with that t**t
scoring the final
penalty!!

Portugal. Dirty rotten
swine! Lets invade and do
them over! The only sour
point is Ronaldo won't be
gracing our finest
grounds next season to
get the best of the
English language .If I
catch any of you booking
holidays to Portugal I'll
be very disapointed!
We'll just have to take
pleasure in watching the
fine lads from Deutchland
doing a blitzkrieg
steamroller job on the
diving Italians!
Achtung!

Well a long day on the
beer....gutted, another 4
years of pain !! What was
that ref thinking, bring
back Mr Poll. Not only
I'm suffering depression
and beer comsumption
tonight, I now find
myself out of the running
of this league, it was
good while it lasted. I
think it's a 4 way race
now between Andrew
Morris, Tom McGee, Dave
Hibbert and Kingsley
Blease, may the best man
win....

My plan didn't work did
it - perhaps I should
have actually gone away.
Now, about the glue
incident - the police
told me that there was no
way that no-one would get
to hear about it, so I
don't know how you found
out Steve. Let's change
the subject - come on
France!!

Scott, full marks to your
kid for picking the
winners based on team
jerseys !! Not many 0-0
games this time around.
What's happening with
that McGee character, for
a guy who reckons he
knows loads about
Baseball his SOCCER
predictions ain't too bad
either. Hats off to you
Yanks for your efforts.

said:
I need a do-over. They
don't score touchdowns in
this football so all of
my score's are way too
high. It's for a good
cause so do this again in
4 years and I'll come
with my A game. 0-0 for a
score? I guess I'm the
only one who didn't know.

Well Steve, we've been
glued together on the
same points now for
several days - it has
become my personal
ambition to finish above
you. France eh? Why did
I doubt them? All the
way to the final - it's
not as if they've got
anyone like Brazil next -
oh, wait, ah!

I see the north dominate!
Is Wales in the North,
as not on the map? Saw
AM yesterday, he said
"He tried his best
for you Steve but JS has
youth on his side and is
fit" (for what he's
never found out). For
the second phase he
suggests we play the
diamond formation, only
the six brightest go
forward? Those that have
been shamed by Sarah
should resign, as they
know nothing about
football - very
embarrasing lads! Some
still think the Charlton
brothers are playing -
it's only an advert!
Anyway, his suggestion is
to divide the top six
into 2 teams. Send to a
Seven Star Hotel for the
duration (paid for by
thelosers). The quarters
only contested by the
winning team and the semi
final being won by the
eldest. If not
acceptable, good luck to
you all. You are going
to need it!!!

There may be some among
you that doubt that
France will score 5 goals
in the second half - and
that Togo won't get any.
Don't count me in your
number! 5-0 all the way
- come on France - don't
forget that they're going
to win the tournament.
Hang on a minute, they're
not are they. They are
pants aren't they. I've
backed the wrong horse
haven't I?

If I'm not top of the
league on my return
Sunday, I'd be happy to
see some other lucky
bastard at the top of the
league as long as it not
Jon or some other
Yorkshireman!! as for you
Mr Gabb... remember the
tradition!! The best man
gets it as well!! look

I'm leaving tomorrow to
try and attempt to
complete the SAAB 24 hour
Mountain Meyhem Endurance
race tomorrow (friday).
Won't be back til Sunday
so I expect I'll be top
of the league by then,
unless Chris beats me to
it, as if!! I've entered
in a team of 4 (teamname
Bobs B*tch*s, don't ask).
Race starts 2pm Saturday,
ends 2pm Sunday... wish
me luck people :)

I think I might try it -
right, I'm off out now,
when I come back, say
next Thursday, I'll be

I can't see that failing.

After a great time in
Germany, I come home to
see as I predicted to be
top of the league, what
can I say !! Must be my
meeting with Rudi Voller
in Germany that did it.
Well I may not finish top
but at least I've been
there, unlike some others
who just claim bad luck
below on the banter
board...

Now hold on - we can't
have Jonathan being near
the top of the league
when he get's back,
especially after he

we chuck him out or

Ah-ha, it came through in

France to get 2 goals
now, and Korea 1 - I'm
optimistic with 10
minutes left to play.

So - what's happened to
the results from the
Brazil game - I managed
to get it spot on for
once, and the results
haven't filtered through
- it's half-time in the
France game!!
The worst thing about
doing this is that you
end up cheering for teams
that you wouldn't
normally cheer for - for
example, I want France to
beat Korea now - that
can't be right or
healthy.

Simon's on a bit of a

Anyway, it has come to
light that a certain
person who is top of the
league before todays
games hasn't paid his
entry fee, so I reckon if
he wins then all the
money goes to charity,
I'll let you all leave
your comments on this to
decide his fate. PS He's
the one in drag on the
photo gallery !

Pax - They must have
coined that phrase with
someone else in mind. (I
need to add that you can
blame Jonathan for
encouraging me to have a
dig - believe it or not,
but that cricketer in the
picture isn't actually
me, and I haven't much
room to talk about the
state of anyone's
stomach).

I can't believe I fell
for it a second time -

whoever did it for him
inserted a comedy photo -
