Well this Saturday I was let down by the three Ws, all of which failed to win at home against weak opposition. All I can say is that they are all a bunch of frigging Ws. No wonder they are the three bookies favourites for relegation.

I notice Chelsea were lucky again for the fifth time in a row despite having Scandinavia's best striker and Hollands best attacking midfielder on the bench. When will the luck run out.

Will Man U beat Newc today and does the pope shit in the woods.

Well, I seem to be descending into midtable mediocrity despite getting the correct oucome on banker bonus for the Man u game and using insurance wisely for Wigan. Without those, I'd be heading for the relegation zone.
BTW, who's this Jocky character? He got a crystal ball or what?

FOUL!!! Wot's going on??
I've just read a report of the Newcastle vs Man Utd game online from The Guardian and they got the score as 0-2. Why have IKTS got it as 1-2? My prediction was 0-2 on Banker bonus. So I should have got 6 pts, not 2.
Did anyone watch the game? Have I gone completely mad?

Forgive me. It's early in the morning and my prediction was 1-2.
I'm going back to bed.

Lomu you should not get too despondent about having a mediocre week. I also predicted NEWC 1 MANU2. With hindsight though thinking that NEWC were going to make their goal scoring debut this week against MANU was a bit naive on both our parts.

I know the score. Well I frigging well don't. My predictions were so pathetically inaccurate that even Lomu would be ashamed.

The only teams that I can rely upon are Chelsea, Fulham and Charlton and even they don't get the frigging scores right.

I have given up and will join the Italian version where at least I know that Juventus will win 1 - 0 every week.

Manu and Aresenal in the champions league. What a joke.

Good luck to the Hampsters tomorrow,

I eagerly looked up my performance early this morning and was encouraged by a +2, +2 start.
Things went rapidly downhill after that, with all the outcomes wrong.
I was only the odd goal out, here or there, but the system dosn't seem to make an allowance for this.
Maybe the situation can be partly salvaged today and tomorrow. Somehow, I doubt it.
I'm quickly losing interest. :guns:
