Sigh, GG

Immaterial I know but I'm sure I got that last Q right!

D'oh, my bad just realised now I read the Q wrong! what a plank I am!

superwomble must have sent out a second string side for this cup match as ruud cruised to a 4-1 victory to put his name firmly in the hat for the 2nd round.

[superwomble]

I'm putting all my players on the transfer list after that performance.

Well done ruud!

[ruud]

Went better than I thought!! Gutted about the Fulham question. Will be interested to see what I got wrong

"Look Shreeves, I don't care if the opposition score our winner with an own goal off the ball boy's arse, the fact is we won 5-4 and its not my fault the opponents cocked it up. I felt the lads performed well, stuck to their task despite the attempts by the hard men in the other team to distract them with puzzles from the Queens Indian at corners and we go forward to the next round with confidence. After all, we're only play a kipper.

Look out League Cup, we intend to defend it, particularly while Horseplayer City is injured"
