Don't mind if I do! Although, stupid tho it is, I'll pick Chelsea and West Ham players, but cut off my nose and never select one of that lot who have just moved.....

Ah well, always ends up costing me about 200 easy points per season...

I'm in, and expect to do my usual fantasy league Charlton impression... a good start before fading away miserably.

I'm in...unfortunately couldn't select Blair as manager. Would have a dis-organised bunch of prima donnas but at least none of them would ever get sent off.

What the hell!

I'm lying in 5267th place in the Formula 1 league - must be able to do better than that here.

Sadly he's my only West Ham player though!

Done, dusted and lost, in more ways than one, expect the usual Man City type performance, odd weeks of brilliance and thats it.

Also lost as my username and passwrod do not work AAAAAAAAAAAAArrrrrgh
