Anyone know where to find results from the Greek league? I can't seem to find them at any of the regular sites I go to. I actually did well with my picks for the Spanish wild card games, which is surprising given that I really don't follow La Liga at all.

Actual results for week #8 were:

Sat-Mon 5-7 Oct 2002 - Premiership

Middlesbrough 2-0 Bolton Wanderers
Newcastle United 2-1 West Bromwich Albion
Southampton 2-0 Manchester City
West Ham United 1-2 Birmingham City

Unfortunately, Greek Cup games intervened so their league games weren't played. No points will be given for these matches.
