Well I shouldn't think so. It should only be reserved for the superior team of Leeds

They don't teach maths in Geordieland then Statto. That would make 69 points :razz:

If I was so inclined, I could only get 5/1 on the 3 online accounts that I would have if I was allowed. Still a steal.

I know many footie fans will be wondering about Macclesfield Town for the coming season :^o
Well,12 of the 16 who represented Macc in the FA Trophy final at Wembley have left the club.
Of these 5 were released and 7 rejected a new contract and have moved on to the likes of Tranmere,Wrexham,Barnet and Gateshead......3 actually moved to nearby Chester who only just avoided relegation from the Conference last season.
So,up to now,Macc have signed 11 new players......more or less a new team.So its hard to say how they will fare this season.
Two pre-season friendlies up to now.
Macc 0 Derby County 2
Macc 1 Bury 0
Just when I thought our chance had passed,you go and save the best for last.

Seems to be a remarkable similarity to Everton who have also got rid of most of their team, are in the process of buying anyone who is still alive (Rooney was probably a close call there) and haven't got a clue how well they will do :yikes:

Nice to see the Udon Expats new singing Totty (from Roma Karaoke) get on the scoresheet ......Right from the opening minute she had them bemused and with only 4played the Everton Defence were already broke and on their backs =P~

Udon Boss Mamasan said it was a good work out for a short time but they would need to stay focused for the whole session, as late on one defender had to make a header off "Line" whilst the keeper was still on "Facebook"

Asked about the rumoured interest being shown by the expats in Neymar, Mamasan said that the owners (Worshipful company of Goldsmiths) had already said that they would prefer to use their tried and tested transfer policy of bringing in plenty of experience from Pattaya FC and getting them to teach all the young local home grown talent which can then be sold on to the big boys \:D/

Seems 747 stopped watching at half time anyway!!

We Leeds fans accept that we are presently a 2nd tier club so a narrow defeat to a top flight team isn't too bad really and, certainly not rubbish. At least we are the top team in our City!!!

Concerning teams from a couple of grass roots leagues (France & Spain)

Just had a friend in Scotland contact me

"I've just seen this on Sky sports but I canna tell ye what its aboot as I dunna nee an Neymar"

PSG PRESS CONFERENCE

This is a definite 'wait and see', but PSG have called a press conference in Miami at 11pm French time. No word on what it's about - could be their game against Juventus tomorrow, could be a signing - but Barcelona also have a press conference at 11.30pm French time, which is set to feature Gerard Pique.
