| Re: Weekend Football: 22nd & 23rd March, 2008. Amazing how a computer randomly generates "Grand Slam Sunday" on two seperate instances a year, every year isn't it?
Come on the Celtic and our east coast cousins, get stuck right in lads! THIS IS SPARTA!  |

Quick questions; if the EPL had the split and the chance to have a Liverpool Man Utd title decider, do you think they'd bottle it or set it up? Secondly, do you think there's violence during a Man Utd Liverpool game? |

Come on the Celtic and our east coast cousins, get stuck right in lads! THIS IS SPARTA!  | Good discussion about that in WSC. It seems it is pretty likely. As there are 16 possible outcomes of "Grand Slam" sunday. If you were to suddenly make Everton, Fulham, Portsmouth and West Ham the big four you could, theoritically, go through the league and find out they've had a "grand slam" weekend too.

| Re: Weekend Football: 22nd & 23rd March, 2008. Portsmouth are without Diop, Muntari, Campebell and Defoe. Looks like the first team on my coupon, THEM, should be fine.
Might go watch Kilmarnock v ICT since it's decent weather. |

| Re: Weekend Football: 22nd & 23rd March, 2008. In other news, I thought Hutton was "well in", when he was asked about that challenge.
He never pissed or moaned he just said that "shit happens".
Apparently there is some sort of BIG ANNOUNCEMENT coming out of the huns.

| Re: Weekend Football: 22nd & 23rd March, 2008. Superb!
It's a transfer war chest.
In other news, they'll also be saying something about getting this league extended, which, would be a fucking farce.
