    wolves really need to step up now... they're premiership team now (apparently) and that's the quality of their training ground.... it's not looking good...

    I'll have you know our training facilities are second to very few: http://www.wolves.co.uk/page/TrainingGround/0,,10307,00.html

    There is a lot of envy in you chucky. If you're not a hammer, you must be a west brom fan. Never mind, you'll develop thumbs soon!;)

    I can't help you out with who Sam Collins is, but seeing as I expect this will be as good as my standings get in our league, I'd like to point out that I'm joint third!!

    I've said on other fora, there's no outstanding team in this WC. All the good teams have weaknesses.

    Which should make it into a more interesting WC. Or more boring...

    I was going to say that I was quite sure that I had a Brazilian, but then thought it best to reword it:D

    I think I chose at least one Brazillian to be on my team.

    I'm quite amazed that I'm not at the bottom of the teams (....yet!)

    I would have thought Spain fitted that description nicely.
