Senore O

:footie :footie :footie

I do see distinct similarities between our respective choices lad :rolleyes ....Brazil to win, Germany runners up, Ronaldinho etc etc and, furthermore I should NOT be at all surprised, if I were to spy on YOUR FF team, that you have poached some of my players on that too.......;)

How can you do that btw?? See who has copied others choices on FF??:tongue

So much for casting aspersions on our teams - it looks suspiciously to me as though we (Peggy and me that is) have the beating of you...:st

Drink up your brew and sit quietly until it's time to go home.......:tongue

It’s really quite tricky to see somebody else’s team on the C4 FF site.
You have to be quite a wiz with the mouse and move it so that the pointy thing on the screen is on top of the person’s team then whilst holding it there you need to use your right index finger and click the left ‘clicky thing’ on the mouse.
If you have any trouble, then just ask whoever is IN CHARGE OF I.T. in your office !!

Ole

PS you might be well advised to change Gerrard from your own team lad.....he has a bad back as I mentioned first thing today..:tongue

Oi!!! I have just realised you wrong footed me there Ole!!!!:angry

I was talking about the teams on here..i.e. the W/C predictions NOT the C4 FF thingy!!!!:tongue

YOU copied MY choices on HERE!!!!

Talk about confused......:rolleyes

I think I need a holiday...:sigh
