I'm afraid it had to be done. New season, new thread.
I want everyone's predictions for the new season so we can all laugh at each others stupidity over the coming months

Oh and Deco is gonna be in the premier league. He is one of my all time fave players, awesome vision and touch. Shame he's at cunting Chelsea though
Coley

liked him... now hes a munter
United win the premier
Arsenal carling cup and F.A cup
relegated: Hull, Stoke, WBA
Champions league: Real Madrid Vs Manchester United final Winnner: Real Madrid
Championship: QPR

We usually just post all the footy in the footy thread, regardless of the season. Either who, Deco is so over-rated.

Coley, Real Madrid never do well in the champions league. Wana put some money on that one?
Man U will win the premiership. I don't think Chelsea will have a good season. Signing Deco is a backwards step, they need some young players. Also i think Spurs might have a good season, Ramos looked a good manager, and he's had some time to think things through, and with Bale back from injury too.
I think Reading will reach the playoffs, then fuck up. And the FA Cup will revert to normal and be won by Chelsea or another top 4 team.
Spence
Jul 2 2008, 07:04 PM
I think Birmingham will win the Championship with maybe Reading second. Cardiff 8th place or somewhere around there, can't really predict that much yet, still early days.

MK Dons have announced Robert Di Matteo as the new manager. I reckon we will get to the playoffs

The other thread is named 06/07 season and it's just not, so i squeezed this one out

Right, so Pompey for the UEFA cup obv

The league will be Man u again with Arsenal winning the Carling Cup and Spurs gettin the FA cup.
Inter for the Champ League.
Bosingwa looks like a very tasty player but I see where your comin from on the Deco age issue....Ballack aint gettin no younger and looks like Lamps is gonna go Inter.
Chelsea for relegation...

Haha! That's exactly how I feel

I wonder past the bookies in a trance not knowing what to do...i bet on the euro's (failed) and couldn't bring myself to care about the shitty tennis....
But it isn't long....transfer news will have to nourish me!
Crouch.....hmm.... not too sure tbh, if given the chance maybe he could be good in th ePortsmuth set up... maybe it's just worth the comedt value f seeing him play with the diminutive Defoe

just created a new fantasy league for this season,
the code to join is 113633-28877
to join;
create an account and pick a team.
click the 'leagues' option in the left hand side menu.
copy and paste the code above into the box where it says 'join a private league'
(the league is called sk8uk.co.uk)

Jul 11 2008, 11:58 AM
Joined the league. I'm pretty happy with my team actually, took me ages to choose though. I've risked not getting Ronaldo in favour of having more to spend elsewhere. And i've had a very cunning tactic with the goalkeepers which i am also pretty pleased with.
When do we get to see other peoples teams?
Spicker
Jul 11 2008, 12:43 PM
when the league starts i do believe, and i did the same as you with ronaldo, picked him at first and then got rid.
all i can say is if you dont have torres you dont have a chance haha. has anybody got the league results from last season, i think i was 4th or 3rd (bit shabby considering i was second for most of it ha, poor end to the season)
Gorg.
Jul 11 2008, 01:51 PM
Nope, i don't have Torres. And again, i don't have any Man U players. Which is a ridiculously stupid decision because they're going to win the league, and their players always do well. But it's a matter of principle, i just don't want players i don't like in my team.
Gretna have dropped out of Scottish league football, and have only just managed to keep a football team at all, which will now play in the East of Scotland league... I sense something similar may happen to Luton.

West Brom signed some Porto player, could be good.
Chelsea in for Robinho? Wouldn't mind seeing him in the Premier league if i'm honest.
Coley
Jul 15 2008, 10:47 PM
you mean watch him sit on the bench after a couple of plays as he has been unsuccessful at Chelsea because they buy individuals that cant play together?
Spence
Jul 16 2008, 12:31 AM
I think he would be a good asset for Chelsea.
Loovens being linked with a move away to Rangers now they've failed to sign Dan Shittu. Please don't sell Cardiff, key player there.

Jul 16 2008, 06:47 AM
Real say he is worth more than 48Mil which is just insane to be honest.......
Berbatov to Man u? I really like Berbatov and anything that c an get him away from them cunting spurs is good news for me

This Barry saga is pretty ridiculous though, apparently he has to go back and grovel to O'Neil cos Liverpool cant afford him. Guess it serves him right for the way he went about his transfer....
Spence
Jul 16 2008, 11:18 AM
Martin O Neil is just being sour about it all, we all have to give up our best players sometimes, and 15m and Steve Finnan is more than enough to secure the deal. I've actually lost respect in O'Neil for not letting him go, as before I saw him as a good character.
Possible swap deal being mentioned now where Loovens goes to Rangers in exchange for Boyd, probably wouldn't mind that, just hope we don't give too much money and Loovens.
