*NEW GAME LMS, starting March 26th* (English Football)

Yeah. I've as good as given up on 3rd already, as we'll get tonked by Chelsea, and even if Arsenal do too, they're in good enough form to win most if not all of their other games, and we're not. I just hope Ferguson uses the games to try out new ideas. We need to cath up with the others, we're light-years behind.

Now time for my moan about Peter Cech (sp). He was incredibly poorly positioned for Birmingham's goal, made nmo attempt whatsoever to get properly positioned either. IMO he's overrated, and has the huge advantage of playing behind one of the best defences this country has seen. He is more reliable than Carroll, but he's made a number of mistakes that have gone unnoticed, because either it hasn't led to a goal due to his defence helping him out, and a few have led to goals (such as his lunacy in coming out for a freekick against Bolton quite early in the season). His few 'fantastic' saves, with the exception of a minor few, he would have been very disappointed if they had got past him. He's good, but I definately wouldn't say he's the best in the Premiership. and he's not the reason Chelsea are so good.

That I'm not sure of. Could be one of a number, 'keepers like Jaskaleinen (sp) and Keily are extremely reliable, and I'd be very pleased if United bought either. As I said, Cech is good, but IMO overrated.

Southend - Leyton Orient 0-1.

Lesson learnt: Never back pikeys.
Lovely, game over, and still time for round three starting next week!

The question remains, though, will Luton celebrate promotion with a win over Franchise FC, or will the principle-free scum continue their recent good run and allow Hakon a share of the trophy?

Yes, yes, well done Cloete. The rest of you can be consoled that the gits from Milton Keynes are back in relegation trouble. For the second time this thread, Up the Torquay.

Next time around?
