I thanked the wrong person last week so thanks to sarabella for stickying this. This week's top scorers were Brummielad, Mr.Bee, Fires Of Fulham and rivers all with 11 points each. This was enough to send rivers and Fires of Fulham to the top of the table with Mr.Bee just behind in 3rd which means the top 3 are all Fulham fans, didn't think you guys knew anything football, I'm well surprised. unclesox slipped away a little this week but is still handily placed in 4th. No Premiership for a while now because of the internationals so plenty of time to get your predictions in: Saturday 10th September 2005 Man Utd v Man City (kick-off moved back to 3pm) Birmingham v Charlton Chelsea v Sunderland Everton v Portsmouth Newcastle v Fulham Tottenham v Liverpool West Brom v Wigan Middlesbrough v Arsenal Sunday 11th September 2005 Bolton v Blackburn Monday 12th September 2005 West Ham v Aston Villa As far as I'm aware there are now no early games on Sept. 10th so you've got until 3pm on that day to get your predictions in.

Not only just Fulham fans but three North American Fulham fans (two Yanks and a Canuck). Hence, to even know where Fulham is, we need to know a little something. And Fulham fans are always looking over their shoulders at the teams behind us to know what we're up against to avoid relegation.
Perhaps you should all organise a trip to the cottage, you never know, you might double the attendance.
I know! It's like an MLS match to attend a match at the Cottage (though I went against Manchester City last year and it was sold out so it's not always that bad). The fans all sit there and the stands are half empty. It feels like home. But it's one of the reasons I love the Cottagers.

I'm going to hold off until after the transfer deadline to post my picks but looking at a few of the scores I don't think anybody has seen Newcastle play yet this season.
Agreed. Not only transfers but I'm also waiting to see what kind of injuries there are in the international matches. This is a 0-0 match waiting to happen and I'll be fine with that up at St. James Park. And no that's not a prediction. I think a lot of people are assuming Owen is a done deal for the Magpies. But even if he plays, he's not going to suddenly make a hat trick's worth of difference.
Newcastle still has a good defense despite their offense. Save for four late goals by Arsenal and Manchester United, they shouldn't have a -6 GD. Bolton was the only team able to truly dominate the Newcastle United defense for the full match.
