    Can I aske where are you finding 1.66? I am damned if I can find it?
  • Had a couple of good days out a few years back at Tranmere watching Stoke. Obviously a few years ago now as Tranmere are the kind of dirt we wipe off our premiership shoes now ;)

    I've completely lost touch with "soccer". I didn't even know it was the charity shield last week until a bloke at work told me!
    Keeping up with transfers / injuries / suspensions is nigh on impossible...
    There, I think that's my excuse for failing abysmally in the fantasy footy... ;)

    skysports.com bbc sports etc etc etc

    No excuses my friend, and i know there is plenty coverage of uk football in the states. ;)

    That's true. But all he ever did was continually post the rate... who, on a $US thread would want to know that... ;)

    Not going well today... down to 1.6515 and sinking quickly
