No, he deserves to fall into mid-table obscurity, just like last year! *evil laugh*

I'm not posting my team until I've fiddled with it a little bit more... I'm sure I can make it better.

I'd join in but I actually know nothing about football at all. Whilst being pretty tomboyish, I am so in a completely geeky way. And by that I mean a lazy geek where I don't care about anything which involves exercise or any sort of major movement actually.

The only reason I fell into mid-table obscurity was because I lost the internet for a month...

I like the whole profit/loss idea this season, makes it more interesting.

Yeah, only joking with ya - the profit/loss thing is interesting, but it may open the door to a lot of 'cheating' - We'll just have to wait and see, I may do shoddy in the new system, so I'm not getting big-headed

Rob, get Yahoo messenger straight away. That'll sort you out with an ID and it's a useful back-up for when MSN starts becoming an a*se, as it does from time to time.

SURREAL MADRID IS IN. woot.

I'm gonna need to fiddle loads more. By the way, the player values are pretty odd. Terry was on the 2nd page! He's clearly one of the best defenders in England. What are thay based on? I'm a little unsure.

Also, I've just picked my initial team. Now what? Just wait until the season starts?
I hope some day, for some reason, David Duchovny is investigated by the FBI. Because that would make a great story.

"Staring relegation in the face" is also a good one, seeing as one of your forwards is without a club at the moment and the other is facing ten years for causing death by dangerous driving.

How the feck do you do it?! I'm confused, I need to be helped and possibly patronised in the process. I picked my team, entered my team name and got an e-mail saying I had joined. You mean to tell me there is more I have to do? This is quite involved.

This is annoying. I can't click on 'create or join group' because there is no option to do that from the link you gave me. I went to 'sign up' again and entered my yahoo I.D and it said I had 'already signed up for this game'. Yet, there is no option anywhere to mess around with my team or anything.
