Clash City Rocker Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Breaking News ( though probably not on Sky TV)!!! Worcester City (my team) have signed (on loan) Paul Barratt from Liverpool reserves, a member of the FA Youth Cup Winners 2006 team. I know you all watch proper football, but this is big news for WCFC. Barratt goes straight into the team today, home against Kettering (played 3 won 3, 10 goals scored). If WCFC get at least a point I'm sure Paul Barratt will get freedom of the city and an open top bus parade. Might even get an attendance of over 1000. -Happy Days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin B Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I'm looking forward to seeing the table this week, I am pretty confident that my fine weekend display has bolstered my title hopes. Just one question Helen, Why did we do Derby vs Birmingham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Cos we're predicting Birmingham on behalf of Emma who has been playing for a while now Martin! That ok?! Will just work out table... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 (edited) Well, here is the leader board!!!! Lorna and Helen stretch their lead with 9 points each. Ali gets 8 (and is he the first person to predict the correct result for every match over a weekend? - he predicted the winners of them all! Well done Ali! - or should that be well done Ali's dad? ) Now you need to get more right scores if you're gonna challenege the top girls! Dan caught up with his better half scoring 7 whilst she scored 3 Martin scored 6, Emma 5 and the rest (Phil, Annie, Clash) scored 4. Feel free to yell if i have got it wrong! (i probably have ) - Phil will be back soon!!! We won't mention how the princess is doing... We'll put his brain-addle down to to much scottish sea air... Helen - 20 Lorna - 17 Ali - 15 Chelsea - 13 Annie - 11 Martin - 11 Debs - 10 Dan - 10 Phil - 8 Emma - 8 Clash - 7 Seagull - 3 Edited August 27, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 BTW - How unusual is it that all our teams win on same weekend (normally Villa let the side down but even they managed a win today! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 And also - on a slightly different note - in the second best sport of all time Phillips Idowu has qualified for the TJ finals in the World Athletics Championships!

Jules. Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 I can confidently say that Alexander had no help from his dad this week with the predictions-he was banned from the computer as a punishment & I sneakily let him on to put on his predictions while his dad was at work-I can't have him falling behind now, can i?

Martin B Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I would just like to send my thoughts to the friends and family of the several football players who have died this week. Antonio Puerta - Sevilla Ray Jones - QPR Anton Ried - Walsall Also - I hope that Clive Clark is recovering after his collapse at HT in the Forest vs Leicester game and I also hope that Royston Drenthe has recovered after his car crash in Madrid.

Jules. Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) before i go to legoland i will post my predictions (all saturday's and all sunday's) Saturday, 01 September 2007 Bolton 0 v 1 Everton, 15:00 Middlesbrough 1 v 1 Birmingham, 15:00 Sunday, 02 September 2007 "Ooops, word censored!"nal 2 v 1 Portsmouth, 13:30 Aston Villa 0 v 2 Chelsea, 16:00 Stoke 0 v 1 Wolves Just ignore what we aren't doing as i'm not a mind reader (not as if phil has much mind to read,being a bolton supporter ) Edited September 1, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 ok.... I'm back from my hols in Scotlandceistershire.. Bolton didn't have a dream start to the season - nor did the Princess in the omlet league or the fantasy league... but.. like Chelsea - while I was a way half my fantasy team were injured or suspended! and i recall the girls being on top when the league started last year.... there is a way to go yet anyway - just to say thanks to Helen for holding the fort for me while I was away, if she wasn't doing so well already I might have awarded a bonus point for her hard work.. as for others - moaning about missing points.. any more of that and there will be points docked! The princess's 50points win bonus will be factored in shortly which should see the table looking more like it should Anyway... a BIG THANKS to Helen :clap: :clap: Phil x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm guessing from the fact that you didn't post again that maybe it wasn't good news)..? PS I wouldn't decry Blue Square North as not proper football! I don't think the top flight or Championship are much like proper football these days so I would be quite interested to read your non-league postings on here! Same old,Same old..... 1-0 up in 5 minutes, 3-1 down in 30 mins H-T 2-3. Played 4 strikers second half and didn't get a shot on target. final score 2-3 Champagne back in the cellar!!!! Played better away @ Telford (monday) drew 1-1, always nice to get a 93rd minute equaliser . A great ground at Telford by the way. I know a little about championship/first division/second division or whatever it's called these days as I had home season tickets at Molineux for nearly 20 years and away season tickets for a couple of years. Saw nearly every one of Steve Bulls goals, including some for England. I still go occasionally as i'm trying to complete 92 football league grounds with Wolves (did Doncaster this season,friendly lost 1-0), hoping to get to S"Ooops, word censored!"horpe in Feb, won't mention last night Worcester city web-site currently being updated (only had all summer to do it!!!)
