That's bizarre.

Hamburg sack their manager days before they play Fulham. I hope Fulham can take advantage......... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/8644181.stm

Nice one Johnny, seems like you had a good weekend. Just wondering, what made you bet on Sampdoria?

Niel, your lot can f*** too

Aye, lost a bit today thanks to our late goal. Back on it though, Everton < 2.5 goals, Liverpool win to nil.

When we got relegated, would you even imagined that Hull would finish above us and stay out of relegation? WBA under Di Matteo will be a better team than under Mowbray, who thought it was ok to play nice passing football against the big boys. Take nothing for granted.

I hope that Blackpool get promoted

If anyone's on Facebook and you've got a Betfair account, they've got an offer on. 'You have until noon tomorrow to predict 5 winners across European football (including UK) this weekend using the comment box below. Anyone who gets them all right will have £50 credited to their Betfair account'

Blackpool 4/7 Norwich 1/2 Millwall 2/5

Dunno to be honest, Tranmere are my local team and I know they are sh**, so I'm going against them . But you're right Colchester are on dodgy form. http://footballstats.sportinglife.com/dom/ENG/D2/oform.html Thanks for that - I'll take them out. Mebbe Blackpool?

According to wiki, came back out of retirement when the team had GK injury problems during qualification. Dunno if he's still playing tho.

I've still to get team news, but my initial thoughts are on £10 on Toon Boro Forest Colchester

Holland could have a great keeper - Tim Krul Is Van Der Sar still their number 1?

I don't think it's completely ridiculous - was thinking that myself. Liverpool look completely toothless without Torres and Gerrard's form is pretty poor as of late. Adding to that, they're coming back from a tough European away leg. Saying that Burnley's defence look a shambles at the moment.

They're like Spurs - full of promise, but never acheive anything. England will get put out at the semis to Brazil - you heard it here first!

This 16/1 for the this final. Argies to win it 9/1

Did he not score 13 goals for Reading the year they got relegated? That's better than any of our current strikers..... Just found that out was 6. What? You were 6? Or he was? 6 goals in the 2nd PL season they were relegated and 13 goals in the 1st PL season. Fact: Doyle began to show a great threat in the air, during the year 2007 he scored more headers than any other player in England's leagues.

Wasn't that a pic from when you hosted it? Surely it won't be as mad as that? Fancy your chances past the group stage?

Gerrard also has a 16 year old lass pregnant apparently. Thats all from the same guy who broke the whole Terry/Bridge thing a week before anyone else. Theres always rumours about his missus being rattled by another bloke mind so i'm not too sure, she does look like she's a terrific slag though. About a month ago, I heard from someone who works at a tabloid newspaper that the papers have got a hell of a lot of Ashley Cole/Terry/Bridge type stories on England international footballers that they were planning to run in the build up to the World Cup. This vaguely fits in with this Gerrard runmour. We shall see.. Not like I care being a Scotsman, but do the papers do everything they can to jeopardise England's build up to a World Cup?!

Something in the 'not worthy of a thread' thread. Also something about Curran supposedly shagging Kris Commons too. And Gerrard is allegedly trying to get a Terry-esque injuction. Dunno if any of it's tru though. All over the net if you google it.

Double overhead kick http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/22042010/58/tandem-kick-argentina.html And some weird Argentianian cartoon afterwards.

0-0 and my <2.5 goals came in

How can you be wearing gloves in this weather, big puff.
