PSG sure has a hell load of trouble on their hands where hooligans are concerned,well at least in Nantes.Honestly,we don't think Boulogne Boys or Supras would think of such stuff,cause they are too big,so 2 small groups of hoolies decide to hold PSG hostage.

Tigris Mystic:formed 1993.
Boulogne Independents:apparently an offshoot of Boulogne Boys(le supporters officiel)

If you think they can't be controlled,wait till you get back to Paris and wait for Marseille's hoolies to show up and then they might actually end up fighting in front of the police HQ.Even the interior minister got into the act and starts condemning those louts.sure sign of sickness

I think I suspect something was amiss when I first saw the scores

Man U 4 Wigan 0-Rooney double and 3 in 7 killers mean that man U did go back home with a trophy at all

Club Brugge 1 Standard 1-oops,Anderlecht seems to be the one profiting after the stalemate

Fenerfarce 2 Besiktas 2-erm no...Galatasaray just needs a bit more rocket booster to win the championship

Lazio 0 Roma 2-what a fine record win

Benfica 1 Porto 0-I'm in trouble this time,but it seems like I just need a few games to recoup my loss

Lens 1 Ajaccio 0-ah part hit
Marseille 1 Nice 0-full honours
Monaco 0 Lille 1-I was saying Lille win,so that's counted as a hit,isn't it?
Strasbourg 2 Troyes 0-double destroyer

Duisburg 2 Hertha Berlin 1-correct!
Hamburg 0 Stuttgart 2-actually we blew this one up

Bolton 2 Fulham 1-Bolton is back,with some bang
West Brom 0 Boro 2-we're stuffed
Liverpool 1 Man C 0-hit without either of them

Valencia 1 Getafe 1-nothing actually,it just applied the cement on barca
Betis 2 Sociedad 0-double trouble
Celta 2 Cadiz 0-another double trouble
Espanyol 5 Sevilla 0-blew it big time
Athletic 1 Villareal 1-hit
Alaves 2 Racing 2-not actually counted
Mallorca 2 Real Madrid 1-blam!
Osasuna 1 Deportivo 2-blam! deja vu

Cagliari 2 Chievo 2-2 goals in last minute and we can't recognise which is which
Juventus 3 Lecce 1-hit power
Ascoli 1 Messina 0-no such count
Palermo 0 AC Milan 2-normally it's milan's turn to put on the heat,that isn't quite necessary,though
Siena 1 Sampdoria 0-Samp is getting like crap nowadays
Empoli 1 Treviso 1-down but not out
Inter Milan 3 Udinese 1-kau tim already

Coventry 1 Burnley 0
Crewe 2 Brighton 1

Ipswich 2 Leicester 0
Leeds 2 Luton 1
Reading 2 Preston 1
Sheffield Utd 2 QPR 3
Southampton 3 Sheffield Wed 0
Stoke 2 Millwall 1
Watford 2 Cardiff 1
roundup:Coventry,Crewe,Leeds,Reading and Stoke are the hits of the day.Sheffield Utd lost the momentum this time round.surely impressive

PAOK 1 Olympiacos 2-hit again,this time without rivaldo
Alkmaar 1 PSV 2-early birds discount and we had a nice profit hitting that on our ticket
Videoton 1 Ferencvaros 1-failed experiment
FC Zurich 1 Thun 0-another Swiss oracle prediction and we have them churning out precise hits
Young Boys 1 Grasshoppers 1-so correct,we just decided to have Swiss League covered on a regular basis from our next issue!

Blackburn is my new hero

Blackburn 1 Arsenil 0-new hero of the week:Pedersen.unlucky enough to get out after scoring but it's Arsenil who befit their nickname as the nil gang by looking lame

Auxerre 2 Toulouse 0-2 chances to make amends to your betting slip
Bordeaux 3 Metz 3-???.they were just lucky to have an equaliser after trailing 2-3,against all odds
Le Mans 0 St Etienne 1-we're having some form of an off day
Lyon 1 Rennes 4-Juninho did score from another freekick,but that was the end of it as everyone were just puzzled after 90 minutes.that's the other side of football's beauty
Nancy 0 Sochaux 3-uh no comment actually
Nantes 0 PSG 0-we were gorggy on beer on this one and still managed to find being drunk more exciting that watching such idiotically clam-shell matches

Cologne 0 Leverkusen 3-triple trouble,all after the second half
Bremen 2 Gladbach 0-just romp
Arminia 1 Dortmund 0-crapped my way through
Mainz 0 Lautern 2-sin bin
Bayern 5 Frankfurt 2-3-1 was only for halftime.show of the week
Wolfsburg 2 Hanover 1-actually Wolfsburg are pretty unpredictable
Schalke 2 Nuremburg 0-early birds deal

Parma 2 Fiorentina 4-we forgot that we don't have any replacements for Toni until recently,hence the long awaited win
Reggina 1 Livorno 1-another strike

Zaragoza 0 Barcelona 2-left it late to seal the deal
Atletico 5 Malaga 0-so much for the dinosaurs.now it's malaga who're more likely to be extinct

Birmingham 1 Sunderland 0-whatever the case at the expense of Sunderland they survived
Charlton 0 Villa 0-huh...zzz
Chelsea 2 Portsmouth 0-correct guess to start the day.still potent after all
Newcastle 2 Everton 0-Solano's 2 strikes give Roeder sweet nights...as if Graeme Souness is a thousand miles away looking at new employment prospects

Austria Vienna 0 Sturm Graz 0-not the kind of bore fest expected,but good enough
Grazer 3 Rapid Vienna 1-after going out from the champs league,they seemed to have ended up giving their trophy to their purple rivals

hell yeah here's our favourite fixtures as always,though a bit late now.funny,this time my top 5 fixtures selection for this week are a bit odd,and it gets really weird towards the end

Man U-Wigan-League Cup final.desperate Man U will take their only silverware and overwhelm Wigan as always.a UEFA Cup slot is somehow guaranteed for the Latics and they just need to put a fight and lose 2-0

Lazio-Roma-we're eternally waiting for such a derby in the Eternal City.yeah correct and with Roma winning most of the time and Lazio drawing most of the time,Roma will win 2-1 courtesy of Totti.anyone looking for di Canio doing the Fascist salute will be disappointed,I warn you first

Fenerfarce-Besiktas-Besiktas are hot right now,and so they will help Galatasaray this once and win 1-0.that is,if Galatasaray doesn't screw up themselves

Benfica-Porto-after beating Liverpool,it's back to normal business.unfortunately though,Porto is stronger than Liverpool away.If you think this is a close fixture,2-1 to Porto will mean Porto are largely guaranteed the championship.If not then 1-1 is ideal but still not enough

Club Brugge-Standard-With Anderlecht taiko scoring 2 goals in the last few minutes yesterday,it's time for them to whack the hell out of each other.but since only one can be whacked,it's Club 2-1

Chelsea-Portsmouth-2-0 or something.this is better than Barcelona
Birmingham-Sunderland-2-1 to save themselves
Charlton-Villa-1-0 or 1-1.Charlton are a bit inconsistent of late
Newcastle-Everton-1-0 or 1-1 such that Roeder has an easier job
Blackburn-Arsenil-0-0 or 2-1.we need to hound them
West Brom-Boro-1-1 or Boro 2-1 on current form
Bolton-Fulham-1-0
Liverpool-Man C-Robbie Fowler didn't leave a foul taste in the Blue side,so at least we won't expect him to add to that taste by scoring.rather,Crouch will be doing all the dirty work.1-0

Lyon-Rennes-2-0 should Juninho score again from another freekick
Le Mans-St Etienne-1-1 or Le Mans 2-1
Nancy-Sochaux-2-1 Sochaux
Nantes-PSG-1-1 or PSG 1-0
Auxerre-Toulouse-1-0 and ok,let's go
Bordeaux-Metz-1-0 to kill
Lens-Ajaccio-2-1 or something
Marseille-Nice-1-1 or a Marseille 1-0
Strasbourg-Troyes-1-1 or 1-0
Monaco-Lille-completely screwed up their season,so 1-0 or a Lille 2-1 may work in most circumstances

Bayern-Frankfurt-3-1 or 1-0.surely they're capable of that
Mainz-Lautern-1-1
Bremen-Gladbach-2-1 and not from behind
Arminia-Dortmund-2-1 Dortmund
Cologne-Leverkusen-1-0 Leverkusen
Wolfsburg-Hanover-1-1
Schalke-Nuremburg-3-1
Duisburg-Hertha Berlin-2-1
Hamburg-Stuttgart-2-1 or 1-1 in a tight match

Atletico-Malaga-2-1
Zaragoza-Barcelona-they need to wear flak jackets this time,because Barca will score 3 at most.2-1 to Barca or 1-0 Zaragoza if you still want giantkillers
Betis-Sociedad-2-1 Sociedad or Betis 1-0.going either way
Espanyol-Sevilla-2-0 Sevilla
Celta-Cadiz-1-0
Mallorca-Real Madrid-to throw Mallorca into the bin,2-1 to Real
Athletic-Villareal-1-0 or Villareal 2-1 or 1-1
Valencia-Getafe-2-1 and Quique wouldn't feel anything
Alaves-Racing-2-1 for a 'resurgent' Alaves
Osasuna-Deportivo-this is tough.I was thinking of Depor 1-0,but I decided to change my mind and put Osasuna 1-1 or 2-1

Parma-Fiorentina-Toni will score this time before they screw up big time.2-1 to Fiorentina
Reggina-Livorno-1-0 or 1-1
Inter Milan-Udinese-we sure have something big.2-2 or 1-0
Ascoli-Messina-1-1 or 0-0
Juventus-Lecce-Juventus might win again.and this is confirmed,so 3-1
Palermo-AC Milan-2-1 AC Milan or 1-1 draw as is normal in Mafia-Land
Cagliari-Chievo-Chievo 2-1 should be ok
Siena-Sampdoria-2-1 Samp
Empoli-Treviso-2-0 or 1-0

Coventry-Burnley-1-1 or 1-0
Crewe-Brighton-2-1
Crystal Palace-Norwich-2-1 or 1-1
Derby-Plymouth-2-2
Hull-Wolves-Wolves 1-0
Ipswich-Leicester-2-1 Leicester
Leeds-Luton-2-1
Reading-Preston-2-2 or 2-1
Sheffield Utd-QPR-3-1 or 1-0
Southampton-Sheffield Wed-1-0 or 1-1
Stoke-Millwall-2-1 or Millwall 3-0
Watford-Cardiff-1-1

Exclusives.This Week:Austrian double bill and it gets really weird

AZ Alkmaar-PSV-I bet no one wants to go against me saying that PSV will romp yet again to the eredivisie.2-1 to PSV will work for this time
Young Boys Berne-Grasshoppers-if 1-1 doesn't appeal to you,I bet you should skip this one
FC Zurich-Thun-out of the UEFA Cup,now it's more trouble as they will lose 1-0
Grazer-Rapid Vienna-I should say going to Graz isn't a pleasant job,so 1-1 should be decent for both of them to keep in the chase
Austria Vienna-Sturm Graz-I make no balls about supporting the purples.should that be so,an average Sturm Graz will fall 2-1
PAOK-Olympiacos-3-0 or 2-1 Olympiacos.man,that's very much a romp nowadays
Slavia Prague-Sigma Olomouc-on form now,Slovan would have to wait before they start lifting the championship.3-1 or 2-1 and well,Sparta is doomed
Videoton Fehervar-Ferencvaros-Just for kicks I decide to include a bit of Hungarian league matches to joke my way out.I'm an MTK fan by the way,so if anyone would bother going underground on this one,a 1-0 home payout will work.disclaimer:this is an experimental project

France-Italy-surely,this would result in a win of at least 3 tries for...the French
Scotland-England-England is desperate for a Grand Slam this time round,so they should make their job easier by winning.but it's not so simple to assume,so after a tight match,England needs a kick to win
Ireland-Wales-a draw should work.if not,Ireland will win this time.Wales aren't good away nowadays

for sure,without a doubt,this is your dream UEFA Cup.too bad there won't be any dutch on home soil,so they're going dutch on this one

Rapid Bucharest-Hamburg
Basel-Strasbourg
Boro-Roma
Palermo-Schalke
Steaua-Betis
Marseille-Zenit SP
Lille-Sevilla
Udinese-Levski Sofia

just how they got to such a state?

Rapid Bucharest 2 Hertha Berlin 0-double take
Hamburg 2 Thun 0-2-1 on aggregate and I doubt I'd have guessed correctly

Basel 1 Monaco 1-ah ha,first blood
Strasbourg 0 Litex Lovech 0-no frills disposal of rubbish

Palermo 1 Slavia Prague 0(Palermo on away goals)-we sure are good at hitting Italians
Espanyol 0 Schalke 3-never they would have won that,in fact it was done in such a convincing style,such an assignment seems chicken feed

Steaua 0 Hereenveen 1-who needs to win when they can allow a late goal in,long after their golden moment to look for 2 has gone
AZ Alkmaar 2 Betis 1(aet.Betis on aggregate)-this is a nerve wracking 120 minutes before Melli send the struggling greens through

Marseille 2 Bolton 1-they sure are good at home,even went so far as to force an own goal
Zenit 2 Rosenborg 1-fine enough,in fact they had it neatly cut

Lille 0 Shakhtar 0-oops
Sevilla 2 Loko Moscow 0-another case of double halfs

Lens 1 Udinese 0-game over
Levski Sofia 2 Artmedia 0-honestly,we're seeing double

Boro 0 Stuttgart 1(Boro on away goals)-I wouldn't care about a wrong score.who care if Boro gets in
Roma 2 Club Brugge 1-bulls eye

Jose Luis Fabiano at 2/24/2006 11:01:00 PM

Thursday, February 23, 2006

i'd love to rambo my way through,if given the chance

Chelsea 1 Barcelona 2-each had an own goal before Eto'o decides what to do with a Chelsea who is uncharateristically made to play with 10.If they need something to boast about,that is the Revenge of the Frisk
Ajax 2 Inter Milan 2-Cruz again and there goes the advantage to Inter.bet they will screw Ajax when the second leg comes
Rangers 2 Villareal 2-double submarine crash and so Rangers had no option but to see out a win
Bremen 3 Juventus 2-1-0,then 2-1(within 9 minutes).but the miracle part is that they came back from behind to win,all within 5 minutes,including injury time.pretty

Jose Luis Fabiano at 2/23/2006 10:29:00 AM

Wednesday, February 22, 2006

Bet I screwed everything,ass

PSV 0 Lyon 1-thinkable,except that Juninho's missiles are damn hard to guess when they come out
Benfica 1 Liverpool 0-sometimes changing my mind is a good thing after all.I didn't even expect to hit this one since I put Benfica 1-0 by mistake(I intended to put Liverpool by that score).heng sial
Bayern 1 AC Milan 1-this is the sort of insurance fixtures which I hit invariably.just sit back with your beer and watch what happens.I didn't get a large payout,though
Real Madrid 0 Arsenil 1-what remains now is that Lopez Caro does a miracle of sorts and do an away thrashing.surely they're capable of that

Jose Luis Fabiano at 2/22/2006 10:10:00 AM

Tuesday, February 21, 2006

that's our long awaited Euro kicks waiting to explode in a few hours.so we'll do well to cover all the important stuff you need this week

Arsenil-Real Madrid-If you want to follow my lead then go for 3-0.If not 2-0 or even 1-0 will be nice.they can't score for nuts
Bayern Munich-AC Milan-If the Khan is back,good and 2-1 or 1-1 is the best score for a tight fixture.but in the case they have to battle without him,0-0 or Milan 1-0 will be cool.or maybe 1-0.possibilities here are endless
Benfica-Liverpool-3-0 to Pool.one for every striker Benfica misses(but I decided to change my mind and put 1-0)
PSV-Lyon-1-1 is a thinkable result if you don't want to burn a large hole in your wallet

Chelsea-Barcelona-tie of the week.apparently Chelsea can't fake a bad pitch as Barca had accused them of doing,because their field is designed to be in tip-top condition whatever the case.maybe we'll put Chelsea 2-1 or 1-1 in a tight match
Rangers-Villareal-1-1 and a valuable away goal for the yellow submarines
Bremen-Juventus-Juve is too strong for Bremen,but they are homesick,so that's another matter.2-1 to Juve works well most of the time
Ajax-Inter Milan-the only thing advantageous is that they have a passionate home crowd.that would make them concede one goal less but Adriano and company will still run all over them whatever the case.3-1 and they can lift the trophy if they don't meet AC Milan again

Zenit SP-Rosenborg-should the Norwegians force out a miracle out of a 2-0 deficit,I'd have applauded them.not likely to do so,so 1-1 or 1-0 Zenit works
Marseille-Bolton-by what I know,the French are strong at home.0-0 again and it goes to penalties.Bolton will win the penalties part,but the problem is,they can't wait until they draw before they realised they're in trouble.1-0 to Marseille to be safe,or you can dice with luck and put a draw
Strasbourg-Litex Lovech-they just had Litex halved.so they half them again and it's 4-0 on aggregate.do the maths yourself
Roma-Club Brugge-2-1 to Roma again.we don't really need Totti in this case
Rapid Bucharest-Hertha Berlin-Rapid are hardcore at home.we'll gamble to the core and play out a 1-0 win for those Romanians
AZ Alkmaar-Betis-1-0 again.so that means Betis are out of the equation
Monaco-Basel-1-1 or 0-0.If you still want to be romantic and put a Monaco win,fine,i'll recommend 2-1.but then we won't be responsible for any losses
Steaua Bucharest-Hereenveen-3-1 again.or 3-0.(conservative estimate,1-0)to the extent that Steaua can lift the UEFA Cup to add to their 1986 European Cup...after 20 years
Levski Sofia-Artmedia-1-0 to Levski and this is a bullish year.since Artmedia's weak away,it's the end of their long adventure,at long last which included one hell of an adventure with Celtic and Porto
Espanyol-Schalke 04-2-1 to Schalke.We don't think Espanyol will win this one at all
Lens-Udinese-apparently Lens are very strong at home.hope their magic still works,if not 2-0 will be a regrettable score to punt on.they need 3-0 for any chance to survive,just for information
Sevilla-Loko Moscow-1-0 again.this is not the winter wonderland we're talking about
Shakhtar-Lille-Shakhtar has lots of options.either they win outright,which can be in the region of 1-0,2-1 or anything,or go for an aggregate draw.I think they will win 1-0
Palermo-Slavia Prague-gang job.should we lose out,we'll be killed by the mafia.I don't think they will cock out and lose 1-0.rather they will win 1-0 even if they look average
Boro-Stuttgart-1-0 again and Boro has something to cheer
Hamburg-Thun-2-1 to Hamburg and they're doomed.1-0?I'll go for that

as for the FA Cup draws...

Chelsea-Newcastle
Birmingham-Liverpool
Charlton-Boro
Aston Villa/Man C vs Bolton/West Ham

Jose Luis Fabiano at 2/21/2006 11:55:00 AM

Monday, February 20, 2006

apparently the koppites are waiting for 85 years.some has since died,but they can rest in peace now that Crouch had made Man U lie low,and here's an all premiership cast for the FA Cup quarters

Liverpool 1 Man U 0-it's a long wait

Actually that doesn't matter,since it can go either way.If that's so,Olympiacos is now the undisputed champion of Greece,and it's one way traffic

Olympiacos 3 AEK 0-Rivaldo has 2 of the goals and you can't fault a World Cup winner,whatever his team

somehow we have good enough scores...

Spurs 2 Wigan 2-not enough for Spurs or Wigan.whatever,they have to wait

Chelsea 3 Colchester 1-busted all of them
Charlton 3 Brentford 1-yeah minus one goal and perfectly done
Aston Villa 1 Man C 1-whatever
Bolton 0 West Ham 0-gimme a big YAWN
Newcastle 1 Southampton 0-not an entire hit
Preston 0 Boro 2-no need to die.the Premiership is just too rich
Stoke 0 Birmingham 1-them too.if they win an FA Cup they can play the UEFA Cup in their graves

Ajaccio 0 Bordeaux 2-twice the fun
Nice 2 Monaco 0-x2 Nice
PSG 0 Le Mans 1-hit as unexpected
Rennes 4 Lens 1-implosion on the way
St Etienne 0 Lille 2-okok,we count that as a hit
Sochaux 1 Auxerre 0-nailed?screwed is the correct word
Toulouse 1 Strasbourg 2-erm wait,that's another pick up of form
Troyes 0 Nancy 1-destroyers are crap
Metz 1 Marseille 0-correct score,damn useless

Gladbach 2 Cologne 0-so weak,they can go back to 2.bundesliga
Leverkusen 3 Duisburg 2-stuffed and neatly displayed
Hertha 1 Schalke 2-hit
Nuremburg 1 Wolfsburg 0-no hit
Hanover 1 Bayern 1-nearly died.damn heng to get away
Lautern 2 Bielefeld 0-they absorbed the other goal and it's now left to cologne to do the dirty work
Dortmund 0 Bremen 1-screw it and go crazy
Frankfurt 1 Hamburg 2-hit
Stutgart 2 Mainz 1-no wait,let's go crazy

Livorno 0 Inter Milan 0-disappointing flops again
Messina 2 Juventus 2-heng sial.they miss the delle alpi even if that's just a deserted dome
Milan 1 Cagliari 0-needed against Inter
Sampdoria 1 Ascoli 2-win total goals,then fall apart
Roma 1 Empoli 0-no score,good though
Fiorentina 1 Lazio 2-correct score.just that they weren't doing any favours
Chievo 0 Palermo 0-zzz
Treviso 0 Parma 1-another strike
Lecce 0 Reggina 0-okok,they don't need to think that only 0-0 is counted as a draw out bore
Udinese 1 Siena 2-gone case

Villareal 4 Espanyol 0-no lah,they're trash
Barcelona 5 Betis 1-having Ronaldinho back is so good
Real Madrid 3 Alaves 0-so forcing down 3 cockroaches instead of acting like one seems the more plausible thing to do.brilliant hit
Sevilla 1 Celta 0-another hit.yay
Cadiz 1 Osasuna 3-coming back from behind to whack their asses
Deportivo 1 Zaragoza 1-no way out where the Militos are concerned(we mean the older brother)
Sociedad 1 Valencia 2-hit again.I've a feeling Brondby sold their star player to the wrong team
Getafe 0 Atletico 3-on a roll
Malaga 0 Mallorca 2-blam!
Racing 0 Athletic 1-finally,a much needed win for the dead lions

Thun 1 Young Boys 1-we sure know how the Swiss churns in hits in clock like precision
Guimaraes 2 Benfica 0-a letter to gyor,hungary...

Dear Miki

sorry.Benfica didn't play well when they saw a whole gang of stragglers.and to add to the crap,one of their players got suspended indefinitely pending further investigations of doping
hope you won't be angry while we wait for further news from Liverpool

R Koeman and the team

Rangers 2 Hibs 0-and so goes the Hibs
Sturm Graz 0 Graz AK 0-no kicks in Graz
Dinamo Zagreb 4 FC Zagreb 1-overshot and bam
Standard Liege 7 Cercle Brugge 1-if you think 3-1 was a hit,that was the only thing permissible in the second half.they ran riot in the first half and hence the trumped up score
Club Brugge 1 Beveren 0-no so much a hit.good enough for a pint,though
Sparta Prague 1 Slovan Liberec 2-correct score,wrong team and an absolutely pathetic season for Sparta
Dunfermline 1 Celtic 8-Zurawski throws in 4,just for kicks.and the other 4 just cemented Celtic's status as the biggest club in the Celtic world(that means Rangers are b******s,silly)
Jablonec 0 Slavia Prague 2-for some laughs,if anyone did put 2-0 with illegal bookies,they scored in the 8th and 88th mins.sure sign of cash

Jose Luis Fabiano at 2/20/2006 11:59:00 AM

as the Liverpool-Man U saga heats up,we'd love to spice things up a little in Lyon

Lyon 3 Nantes 1-stuff that in the trolley and roll off with the cash

Jose Luis Fabiano at 2/18/2006 08:46:00 PM

Friday, February 17, 2006

ok,we sure know how to be noobie blasters where the FA Cup is concerned

Liverpool-Man U-this is the big FA Cup tie.since both are on nice form,and Man U can get away with it,2-1 will suffice for the Red Devils

Lyon-Nantes-this is damn early.2-1 to Lyon and we assure you,nothing out of the ordinary is going to happen

Spurs-Wigan-the only EPL match for the week.expectedly we don't expect Wigan to get away with a win,so 1-1,2-1 or a 1-0 as a big gamble does nicely

Olympiacos-AEK Athens-another big match.I'd want you to play safe by playing 1-1,but I'm feeling so lucky 2-1 to Olympiacos works even in the most desperate of circumstances

Charlton-Brentford-2-0 and well,the last vestiges of thelast divisions would be gone
Bolton-West Ham-1-1 in a close contest.or 2-1
Newcastle-Southampton-2-1 or maybe a Southampton jack-in-the-box.not so likely
Preston-Boro-2-1 Boro and well,they seem better now
Stoke-Birmingham-2-1 Birmingham or they might as well just go and die(that includes replays)
Chelsea-Colchester-3-0 and/or bust.Colchester isn't Boro for sure
Villa-Man C-2-1 can work for a Man C not s good away

(midweek)Newcastle-Charlton-1-1.no Souness doesn't mean more wins,but 2-1 may work too

Rennes-Lens-Lens will get Rennes to whack,1-0 is king
Sochaux-Auxerre-2-1 Auxerre and nailed
Toulouse-Strasbourg-1-0.Strasbourg is lousy when it's in the Ligue,and the Toulousains won't have 6 Nations to distract them,so they would support their inferior footy team
Ajaccio-Bordeaux-1-0 Bordeaux.don't get booby trapped
PSG-Le Mans-2-1 or Le Mans 1-0.mann that's rough
Nice-Monaco-1-0 is a Nice choice,or 1-1 is good enough too
St Etienne-Lille-3-1 doggy
Troyes-Nancy-2-1 or 1-1
Metz-Marseille-1-0 Marseille

Hanover-Bayern-3-1 Bayern or 2-1
Hertha Berlin-Schalke-Schalke 2-1 or 2-2
Nuremburg-Wolfsburg-0-0 or 1-1
Lautern-Arminia-1-1
Dortmund-Bremen-ok no fish.2-1 either combo or 2-2
Gladbach-Cologne-2-1
Leverkusen-Duisburg-1-0

Frankfurt-Hamburg-1-1 or Hamburg 2-1
Stuttgart-Mainz-1-0 or 1-1

Livorno-Inter Milan-2-0 Inter,or 1-0.doubt they will flop
AC Milan-Cagliari-3-1 or 2-0
Messina-Juventus-3-1 Juve,they seem to be outside home recently

Treviso-Parma-Parma 1-0
Fiorentina-Lazio-Toni wouldn't score anyway,but if he does 1-0 would work.if not 2-1 or 1-1 is ok
Chievo-Palermo-1-0 or 1-1 and Slavia would seem easier
Udinese-Siena-1-0 and ok on the road of recovery
Roma-Empoli-3-1 and Totti should score one
Sampdoria-Ascoli-2-1
Lecce-Reggina-1-1

Villareal-Espanyol-2-1 and ahoy
Real Madrid-Alaves-3-0.no cockroaches actually
Sevilla-Celta-1-1 or Sevilla 1-0 or Celta 2-1(only if they score first)
Barcelona-Betis-no voodoo as Barca will win 2-1

Getafe-Atletico-2-1 or Atletico 1-0,if Barca is big fish,then small fries aren't hard to fish
Deportivo-Zaragoza-1-0 should work
Sociedad-Valencia-Valencia will have Villa on all cylinders and 2-1 seems logical
Racing-Athletic-1-1
Malaga-Mallorca-1-1
Cadiz-Osasuna-2-1 to Osasuna

Exclusives(notice the record 9 exclusives and the rare Croats.anything that looks interesting gets mentioned)

Sparta Prague-Slovan Liberec-I changed my mind and decided on a Sparta 2-1
Vitoria Guimaraes-Benfica-2-1 Benfica in memory
Sturm Graz-Grazer AK-1-1 or 2-1 Sturm
Thun-Young Boys-this is the so called Berne derby.Young Boys look better,but I'd settle with 1-1
Rangers-Hibs-If Hibs can win,1-0 is ok.if not,then 1-1
Standard-Cercle Brugge-3-1 works well
Club Brugge-Beveren-Club should find this easier at 2-1
Dinamo Zagreb-FC Zagreb-we sure are f***ing crazy.Dinamo 3-1 and the Croatian Championship is settled

the next few Swiss matches.this is my newest fad...(Grasshoppers and Basel meet on funny dates =))

26/2:Fenerfarce-Besiktas(graaaaaaaaaa)
5/3:Grasshoppers Zurich-FC Zurich
12/3:Basel-Grasshoppers
2/4:Basel-Young Boys

not so lucky after St Valentine's protection wore off

Nantes 1 Troyes 1-this story will end up in football's 10 most wacky moments.it's so boring for 75 minutes,while they took their time to use all their substitutes.then Troyes had their goalie sent off for some desperate lunge at some Nantes player who only had the goalie to beat.the striker turned goalie lasted only 4 mins before he got struck by a free kick.if you think that's freaky enough,the captain/goalie also got sent off for a more retarded foul,then the defender turned goalie let in a penalty right away.this is so lame hahahaha
St Etienne 0 Nice 1-half Nice

Real Madrid 4 Zaragoza 0-this story sounds like Artmedia-Celtic,and lucky Senor Perez didn't quite flare up at Senor Lopez Caro

Rosenborg 0 Zenit SP 2-unexpectedly,we just misfired
Bolton 0 Marseille 0-draw yes,but ramming their head on a metal wall is just not on
Litex 0 Strasbourg 2-ok,this is a entirely different Strasbourg from the diffuse team in the Ligue
Club Brugge 1 Roma 2-minus one goal each and lose a bit
Hertha 0 Rapid Bucharest 1-Rapid is the surprise team of the moment
Basel 1 Monaco 0-quickpick hit
Hereenveen 1 Steaua 3-it's Steaua on the driving seat barring something catastrophic
Artmedia 0 Levski Sofia 1-hmmm...Bulgarians are that tough
Schalke 2 Espanyol 1-ok another hit,just a bit late
Betis 2 AZ Alkmaar 0-grand spoof
Loko Moscow 0 Sevilla 1-correct score and wrong team.or correct team and wrong score.eeks
Lille 3 Shakhtar 2-just for kicks,the Tigers came back from 3 goals behind in 2 minutes.the same can't be said for the Dogs when they end up in a tiger infested Ukraine
Udinese 3 Lens 0-ok f*** it

Coventry 2 Sheffield Wed 1
Southampton 0 Preston 0
Burnley 0 Wolves 1
Crewe 1 Ipswich 2
Crystal Palace 2 QPR 1
Leeds 2 Watford 1
Leicester 2 Derby 2
Luton 3 Cardiff 3
Millwall 1 Hull 1
Norwich 3 Brighton 0
Sheffield Utd 1 Reading 1

if the Kop is big enough for rose cultivation,we can grow the whole compound full of red ones.and yeah,here's our Valentine's night bonanza,dugout times style

Liverpool 1 Arsenil 0-Luis Garcia's red hit means that all our punters would end up oweing a treat to their girl/woman.and since Liverpool has the most handsome players,everyone's swooned.not Arsenil Wenger though,because if he loses again I'm afraid he will be sacked against all expectations

I think Barca is copying what their eternal rivals Real Madrid has done regarding Henry's transfer,with a twist.they don't want to copy Real Madrid where it comes to making themselves look like cheapos.I bet they will snare Henry from Arsenil after the World Cup

valentine's dugout times is going to be a lovely affair

UEFA Cup

Schalke-Espanyol-apparently Espanyol is useless when most needed,so a 2-0 win to Schalke won't do much harm.just to beautify the scene,2-1 may be possible
Basel-Monaco-beware of Vieri.if he scores a goal,Basel loses 2-1.if not,1-0 or 1-1 should be ok
Hereenveen-Steaua-0-0 is their favoured tactic.I bet Steaua can warm up before they do and win 2-1
Litex Lovech-Strasbourg-Strasbourg needs an away goal.but I think they can't get away with poor form in the Ligue. 2-1 to Litex and that sets up a tantalising second leg.if not 1-1 or even a Strasbourg 1-0 may work,if their UEFA Cup form is to be considered
Lille-Shakhtar Donetsk-the Ukrainians can't do much away(note that Dynamo Kiev haven't perfected their formula yet),so 1-1 is cool
Udinese-Lens-3-1 Lens or to cut the damage,2-1 to the side who scores first
Lokomotiv Moscow-Sevilla-it's still sub zero temperatures,so drinking vodka doesn't work.if you don't fancy Loko winning 1-0,2-1 to Sevilla does nice.note that we can't guarantee anything in case of cold
Betis-AZ Alkmaar-Betis is on a downward spiral.1-0 to Alkmaar works well
Rosenborg-Zenit SP-still quite cold there,at -1 celcius.1-1 or 1-0 can work.for the latter,flip a coin and decide for yourself.disclaimer:we won't be held responsible for losses due to such amateurish advice
Bolton-Marseille-this is tough to call.1-1 draw is good.if not then 1-0 to Bolton
Artmedia-Levski Sofia-Artmedia are capable of winning big against middle to light-heavy weight opponents.I don't think there will be a freak score,0-0,1-1 or 2-1 are options which you can consider.note you might have to put a draw no matter the case
Club Brugge-Roma-Roman power at 3-2
Hertha Berlin-Rapid Bucharest-2-1 or 1-1
Slavia Prague-Palermo-2-1 or maybe 2-0 Palermo.things in the Eastern bloc may be hard to predict
Stuttgart-Boro-1-0 to Boro for ppl who aren't well versed in Bundesliga.1-1 for the rest
Thun-Hamburg-1-0 to Hamburg.teams who have their coaches sacked lose their first games most of the time(except for absolutely awful ones like Souness)

English Championship

Burnley-Wolves-2-1 Wolves or 1-1
Crewe-Ipswich-1-1 or 1-0 to Ipswich
Crystal Palace-QPR-Crystal Palace 1-0.lovely
Leeds-Watford-3-1 Watford or 1-1 mor 2-1 or 1-0 Leeds
Leicester-Derby-1-1
Luton-Cardiff-2-2
Millwall-Hull-1-0
Norwich-Brighton-2-1
Sheffield Utd-Reading-Reading 1-0 or 1-1 or maybe a desperate attempt for a Blade 2-1
Stoke-Plymouth-1-1

Coventry-Sheffield Wed-3-1
Southampton-Preston-1-0 or 1-1

Rangers 0 Celtic 1-it's 21 points clear and still no sign of chasing.really bound for the scrapyard.btw zurawski is my hero of the week
Inter Milan 1 Juventus 2-so dramatic,it was a let down for Inter who kinda gifted the scudetto to the Bianconeri

Sunderland 1 Spurs 1-it kinda worked until the last moment,when those dead cats just crapped a goal out of no where
Man C 3 Charlton 2-away day blues

Lille 0 PSG 0-French style blanko in the mud
Marseille 0 Toulouse 0-so sian diao,I bet we can't tahan anymore,so we decide to throw eggs the next time they come with a 0-0 again

Cologne 0 Dortmund 0-blanks hit
Bayern 2 Nuremburg 1-not quite a hit,still better than nothing

Parma 0 Ascoli 0-only the 1x2 worked
Livorno 2 Fiorentina 0-blam!

Reggina 1 AC Milan 4-coming back from behind after 2 minutes have never been so easy
Empoli 0 Palermo 1-no hit
Siena 0 Roma 2-score breakdown,1-1 and 2-0.think we shouldn't factor in so many goals next time since there are leftovers

Valencia 1 Barcelona 0-struck the jackpot.anything without Ronaldinho is forgettable,to say the least
Betis 0 Deportivo 1-half shot
Celta 1 Villareal 0-another hit
Espanyol 0 Racing 2-Espanyol are so useless when they're most needed
Alaves 3 Malaga 2-safe,for now
Mallorca 1 Getafe 1-confused
Atletico 1 Sociedad 0-another classy hit.this time it's Kezman breaking his super goal drought

added update(Tues 8am)
West Ham 3 Birmingham 0-no medicine save them liao
Maccabi Tel Aviv 1 Maccabi Haifa 0-ok,this is a nice enough hit we're sure we aren't going to be pawned in Tel Aviv.next stop:some posh restaurant in downtown Tel Aviv

one thing first:late crap
FC Zurich-Basel.1-0 to Basel.not so easy to swat

we must have said that football always spring surprises,and brings so much excitement when giantkillers get their way.looks like in rugby,it just gets a little too predictable

France 43 Ireland 31-no thrashing.that will do
Italy 16 England 31-broke their away voodoo at last

to shock you,welcome to the wacky world of football

Boro 3 Chelsea 0-Fabio-ulous Rochemback and company put Man U back on track.Mourinho is shut this just once,to the delight of all the ABCs
Arsenil 1 Bolton 1-nearly did.someone had the spoiler
Villa 1 Newcastle 2-had Baros not fluffed his penalty,he would have spared us some of the trouble at smashing
Everton 1 Blackburn 0-oh yeah,even when wacky i can whack in a bull's eye time and again
Fulham 6 West Brom 1-this is freaky
Portsmouth 1 Man U 3-jackpot!and supposedly Cristiano Ronaldo has changed from show pony to show horse
Wigan 0 Liverpool 1-correct score,and i think Pool tai-koed.if Wigan did score,then Liverpool would have came back.so it's just 1 goal on the total goals ticket

Auxerre 1 Metz 1-donkeys
Bordeaux 2 Rennes 0-ahaha,it's twice the fun
Le Mans 2 Nice 0-Le Mans is first up on the track
Lens 1 Lyon 1-on third thought,i should have halved my prediction or it's just half the winnings on 1x2
Nancy 2 St Etienne 0-this time it's twice
Nantes 3 Sochaux 1-incorrect
Strasbourg 2 Ajaccio 2-draw?yes.hit?not really
Monaco 1 Troyes 1-Vieri hit a goal in first,then they equalised.one of the rare few games which i smiled straight to the bank from the first whistle

Schalke 7 Leverkusen 4-for sure,this is one hell of a circus
Frankfurt 0 Hanover 1-not so much a hit.should have bought frankfurters instead of betting(read:gamble with care)
Hamburg 1 Mainz 0-half-time and half-score
Bielefeld 2 Stuttgart 0-so crap,they can go scrap their season
Duisburg 1 Gladbach 1-hit once again
Wolfsburg 1 Berlin 1-i'm quite foolish to crap a bet here
Bremen 0 Lautern 2-floored

Lazio 1 Udinese 1-another hit.I seem to hit Lazio lately
Treviso 1 Chievo 2-perfect score in the Serie A

Athletic 0 Real Madrid 2-it's double trouble
Osasuna 1 Zaragoza 1-Osasuna shot themselves in the foot
Cadiz 0 Sevilla 4-we can go to sunny Seville and drink our way out

Hearts 1 Aberdeen 2-blew up the joke

hahaha we've got friday night Championship going on

Reading 2 Southampton 0-Imperious royals get a royal flush.perfect

Dinamo Moscow has a new emulator.if you think Dinamo's plundering of the Portuguese Superliga is funny enough,there's this Polish team which bought SO many Brazilians,they can imagine it's some Campeonato Brasiliero team playing against Wisla and Legia

so this is what happened

Wisla Krakow:they've got the Australian international from National Bucharest and the Argentine who's reputedly the highest paid player in Poland.and the best players.that didn't save them from boardroom troubles actually
Legia Warsaw:their local talent looks better,so they have more Polish internationals than Wisla.all is well there even if they moan that they don't have a lot of trophies
Pogon Szeczin:there came a shipload of Brazilians from Rio de Janeiro,and Polish football will never be the same again.looks set for complaints if they field 11 of their Brazilians in a match

more fixtures coming your way.and improved goals segment in ESPN includes Championship goals.we go one up and give you even more exotic stuff

Rangers-Celtic-McLeish is gone by May,so rub it in by betting a Celtic 2-1 or 3-2 win
Inter Milan-Juventus-this is so tough,I'm contemplating not giving any result.but on second thought,1-1 or Juventus 1-0 or Inter 2-1 sounds reasonable enough to kill
Reading-Southampton-this happens in a few hours time,so here's a late night tip.Reading 1-0 or 2-1 is perfect

Wigan-Liverpool-Liverpool aren't quite good away,so 1-0 Wigan sounds nice.not wait,2-1 to Pool can?
Arsenil-Bolton-1-0 to Bolton as is traditional
Villa-Newcastle-there's no guarantee the Magpies will heal by themselves without Souness,so 1-1 is a logical guess
Everton-Blackburn-1-0 or 1-1 can already
Fulham-West Brom-1-0 to...Brom.they ahve the potential to stay up
Boro-Chelsea-Chelsea win 2-0 and adds fire to Boro's fast disintegrating season

Auxerre-Metz-3-1 or something
Bordeaux-Rennes-1-0 again and it works here
Le Mans-Nice-1-1 or to put it Nice-ly,1-0 to le Mans or Nice,depending on who's first
Nancy-St Etienne-1-0

Marseille-Toulouse-2-1 and well,let's collect the money
Lille-PSG-PSG 1-0?change the winning side

St Etienne-Nice-another Valentine's treat.to tie in Nice-ly,2-0 or 2-1 to Nice will be enough to pay for your girlfriend's presents and the requisite meal at the Riveira
Nantes-Troyes-2-1.if that's a double hit,then i'm so in love with the French League

Wolfsburg-Berlin-2-1 to Berlin
Schalke-Leverkusen-1-0 or 2-1
Duisburg-Gladbach-1-1
Bremen-Lautern-3-1 should work
Arminia-Stuttgart-bye Trap,so 2-1 to Stuttgart
Hamburg-Mainz-2-0 with van der Vaart back
Frankfurt-Hanover-1-1

Cologne-Dortmund-2-1 Dortmund,or 0-0
Bayern-Nuremburg-3-1 is the most typical score for Bayern.

Lazio-Udinese-1-1 or 2-1

Parma-Ascoli-1-1
Livorno-Fiorentina-Toni scores again,so 3-1
Cagliari-Lecce-1-0
Sampdoria-Messina-2-2 or 1-0
Reggina-AC Milan-yeah,coming back in full force,2-0 should be workable
Empoli-Palermo-1-1 or Palermo 2-1
Siena-Roma-3-1 to the Romans

Osasuna-Zaragoza-1-0 or not a freak score
Cadiz-Sevilla-1-0 to Sevilla
Athletic-Real Madrid-freak scores aside,1-0 to real Madrid is the next thing in having Athletic in the segunda

Betis-Deportivo-2-0 depor and Betis is in trouble
Celta-Villareal-1-0 or 1-1.this is tough call
Espanyol-Racing-1-0
Alaves-Malaga-1-1

Exclusives

26/02:Fenerfarce-Besiktas(another firecracker from Istanbul)
22/04:TNS-Llanelli(another first.this time it's the Welsh League)

11/2
(Israeli league)Maccabi Tel Aviv-Maccabi Haifa-first ever Israeli fixture.I'm more of a Maccabi Tel Aviv fan,but having fallen on hard times,I think haifa is a better bet.1-0 or 1-1 will allow you a treat in one of Tel Aviv's big bank$(not water,silly.it's ca$h)
(Scottish league)Hearts-Aberdeen-3-2 to Hearts and it's a jam packed deal
(6 Nations)France-Ireland-France,back in their territory,will bering the whole fight to the Irish.I doubt the Irish can hold on after 55 mins
(6 Nations)Italy-England-another thrashing is on the cards

12/2
(Czech league)Sparta Prague-Slovan Liberec-Normally on paper it would have been Sparta 2-0,but this time round,due to special circumstances,1-0 to Slovan is quite justifiable
(6 Nations)Wales-Scotland-Wales are traditionally strong at home,so they will get their Brains working and win Scotland by a kick and 2 tries

Chelsea-Livepool-this is very big,and tricky.if Liverpool can win 1-0,they go a long way.if not 1-0 by chelsea will make everyone want to go to court.1-1 is the best result here

Newcastle-Portsmouth-no more Souness.2-1 or Portsmouth 1-0.very rarely do i have to do such drastic measures
West Brom-Blackburn-1-1 or Blackburn 2-1

Nice-Lille -1-1 or 2-1 to Lille

Duisburg-Lautern-1-1 or 0-0
Cologne-Stuttgart-2-1 to Stuttgart
Bremen-Mainz-3-1 or not so insane freak scores
Hamburg-Arminia-2-1.should work here again
Frankfurt-Berlin-1-1

Wolfsburg-Gladbach-2-1 without d'Alessandro.or 1-1
Hanover-Nuremburg-1-1

Siena-Ascoli-1-1
Parma-Roma-2-1 to the Romans

Inter Milan-Chievo-2-1 or Chievo 1-0.but i don't really recommend the second one
Cagliari-Empoli-1-1
Fiorentina-Lecce-3-1 or 2-1 and Toni scores some
Livorno-Messina-1-1 or 0-0
Reggina-Palermo-1-1 or Palermo 2-1
Sampdoria-Treviso-1-0 and wheeeeeee
Juventus-Udinese-2-0 can do.or 2-1
Lazio-Milan-1-0 or Milan 2-1.they're damn unlucky,so feel free to decide the script

Malaga-Athletic-1-1 is the best result
Real Madrid-Espanyol-3-1 from behind?1-0 in a late scramble would work
Deportivo-Valencia-another Copa del Rey encounter.so bring it on with 1-0 or Valencia 1-0,flip a coin to decide

Zaragoza-Betis-on a high vs on a low.add Betis to Barca and 2-1 works here
Villareal-Cadiz-2-0 or 2-1
Sociedad-Mallorca-1-1 or 3-2
Getafe-Alaves-2-1 would mean Alaves are down
Racing-Celta-Celta 2-1 should be nice
Barcelona-Atletico-2-0 or Atletico 1-0?not confirmed since Ronaldinho is suspended.will be a tough match to follow
Sevilla-Osasuna-2-1 or Osasuna 1-0.can go either way

Burnley-Plymouth-2-1
Coventry-Brighton-1-0
Crewe-Reading-Reading should do well to get away with 2-1
Crystal Palace-Cardiff-2-1 with Johnson scoring-yet again

Leicester-Wolves-1-1
Luton-Hull-1-0 or 1-1

Southampton-Derby-1-1
Stoke-Preston-Preston 2-1 or 0-0

Norwich-Ipswich-1-1 or Norwich 1-0
Sheffield Utd-Watford-we're damn sure of promotion,so 1-0 would work here

(Rugby 6 nations-more scrum action)
Ireland-Italy-10 points at most
England-Wales-England winning by the odd try can be explored.or else a rare draw should work.not a neck to neck encounter
Scotland-France-just smash them.they will do well to keep it to less than 20,though

(crazy exclusives.this week-Portuguese Superliga double bill)
Anderlecht-Genk-i think they'll win this time.2-1 should help here,or 1-1 is preferable
Feyenoord-Ajax-we're damn particular about this big match.but too bad Ajax has nothing to fight for except pride,so expect no mercy at 2-1.meanwhile PSV's business continues
Porto-Braga-this is super crazy now.3-1 to Porto or a more conservative estimate at 1-1 or 2-1
Sporting-Nacional-2-1 should do wonders,and expect the same person to score both.won't tell you anything yet,though

(8/2 midweek action)
Aberdeen-Rangers-time to rumble.1-0 to Rangers or 2-1 to the Dons looks good for a clean sweep at the Pools
