Cardiff or Millwall, whichever you want to be behind !

Remember that it's actually names in hats, so you'll be picking the pool - not your own team. It can't hurt to have two picks each...

List so far:
Swansea
Watford
Crystal Palace
QPR
Cardiff
Millwall
Derby
Hull

Reading
Burnley

But not Barnsley.

Teams are:

Aga: Reading
Bisi: Burnley
Shepp: QPR
Stumpy: Hull
Talarin: Swansea

Many thanks to our drawmaster, the mighty Cannonfodder. Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow at 8:30pm.

Gwan Bisi, do it fer t'Clarets!

So far so good, Chez !

We beat our B-team and won the first friendly of the season in a four hour waiting for Aga session that was highly amusing ! Stumpy Cat bought an enitre old people house worth of players, Aga scouted the entire African continent for young black boys, Shepp was not interested in whatever it was we were trying to do and Tal sat there being Tal a lot.

Of course there is already a heavy anti-Aga movement, which was to be expected, the absolute favourites are never the most popular and the failing squads' managers are already trying to find excuses with their board as to why they will get a good spanking.

After finding a whopping Eur 50K in transfer money, the-almost-but-not-quite-entirely-unlike-mighty Reading, had to revert to signing a combination of talented tea boys and experienced pro's. Not having the money to acquire them other more creative actions were explored. Present democratic paradises like Libya, Egypt and Belgium were main targets. While the Egyptians and Libyans got shot before arriving in England, we did get some talent in from Belgium, Italy and Spain.

Manure smelled money and they came to beg Reading for a link. While Bisi, Tal & Shepp were wondering why their request for Parent clubs were refused, Aga did away with asking for a Satelite club and got Manchester United.

Stumpy in the meantime refused to sign anyone more than 20 year younger than him, which put his signing limit at 39 years of age. The elderly are as we know set in their ways, so patient younglings as we are we let him be, mostly. His supporters spokesman was not of the same mind when Stumpy sold his star players, allegedly to make room to spend the same wage money on quality wheelchair users. This quickly became a 'casus belli' in which incidentally my Egyptians and Libyans got shot.

No one really knows what Tal, Shepp and Bisi are up to, but we all know it can't be a lot of good. While Bisi is forgiven (he is still looking for the 'go to match' button), Shepp actually did steal a potential Stumpy signing (read wheelchair user) with Maniche, although we all pretended not to care about what he was doing, Tal seems to be chasing mysterious goals. In the meantime a stranger has been found lurking at the Aberdeen U12 training grounds.


Looking forward to next week, been great fun.

I just know you saw a sign that said "Footballer Ars for sale"..and thought you'd struck gold.

Lovin' it Aga!

What's that got to do with anything ?

Muhahahaha

We'll all be there for the grand opening... err... signing.
