*I have not Fifa09ed the results. Ha! Picks pure spectulation at this point of the season

It has been a long off season, Sat- I will be up in the am watching the games if I don't DVR and go fishing instead.

I WILL watch the Liverpool game, my team since Kenny Dalglish. Hard to believe it will 20 years since we were League Champions.


Ready 2 Go

I've been down since Sunday's debacle. We played poorly, which is really upseting. The game was given away by the ref, which is miserable since he refed our only two loses last year and he will ref us again. And we lost.

Anyways chance of redemption starts in a few. My picks.


Birmingham 2 v Portsmouth 0
Burnley 0 v Man Utd 3
Hull 2 v Tottenham 1
Liverpool 1 v Stoke 0


Hull played better than Liverpool on Sunday and I am bitter enough to pick them over Spurs today.

Best of Luck!


Ready 2 Go
