WIN!!

I'm not a contender here but you need to be sure what result you're predicting. Is it the result of the tie (ie you only have win or lose because pens will decide) or is it the result after 90 mins or after extra time?

Pedantry Rules (or we may need Marquis of Queensberry Rules)

I don't agree with your decision Geordie. I think Gus meant he tried posting "Draw" the first time but it didn't post, so then he said "Win!". Shame he didn't go for "Lose" as well, then he could have had the lot (apart from "Abandonned" and "Postponed". Or perhaps "Void".)

Score draw - defeated on away goals rule.

Hey Screach, this jealousy thing is going too far. You are not even in the competition. (Any More)

Geordie has made the decision! So sod off back to America, syme is missing you and as such will not get paid!

Geordie got ot correct. As my first post said Draw, a mesage came back saying I had already posted the same message, therefore, I had to change the text. In doing so I pointed out that it was the first time I had posted anything other than a Win.

unofficial punt, 2-2, coming from 2 goals down we just miss out.

good points jonno. This comp is predicting the result on the night AT FULL TIME (otherwise it would be called Win, Lose ;-) )

We will win. We will win the tie. Is there space in our trophy room for the silverware?

One little problem for those of you looking to restock the trophy cabinet......I don't think there's an actual trophy for winning the Intertoto. ;-)

Ciara, we'll bliddy make one from the 30 pieces of silver we got for Hamann if we have to. The Calcutta Cup which England and Scotland play rugby union for was made out of rupees from the Indian Mutiny: perhaps we could melt down the bond holders' name tags from the seats in the Milburn and call it the SOS Cup.

Lose. Sorry - but I can't see us scoring more than one and we can't defend a 1-0 lead. I really, really, really hope I'm wrong.

Ha ha ha. Me jealous of an (expletives deleted for the sake of the delicate Makems on here) Gus!! Oh OK, gaan on then. I was gutted we didn't lose on Sunday, especially as I'd paid Shay so much. Enjoy your glory Guster while it lasts.

LOL, Softie! Perhaps one made out of used crutches and other medical apparatus? We should have plenty of that lying around. ;-)

Apparently the medical team's motto is:

"If it's broke, don't fix it"

The midfield's is meant to be: "Less haste more Speed".

0-0 and we win on penalties.

-- Anonymous, August 20, 2001

..... oh my god, penalties! Don't even think about it.

1-0 to the Toon. Shearer in the 13th minute of extra time!

Clarky - you're worse than Gus. At least he was mentioned by Geordie. You just bliddy-well gatecrashed. So, in the spirit of things, I expect the game to be abandonned due to a tropical storm. What do you mean, deja vu?

Win, This is the first time I have posted win after posting Draw

0-0 would see us knocked out would it not?

-- Anonymous, August 21, 2001

No - it would go to penalties and that would see us knoced out as I don't see that many penalty takers in the team.

where will our goals come from?

-- Anonymous, August 21, 2001

It's been nearly 3.5 years since Barton scored for us so it's either he or Robbie Elliott for my money.

Game, set and match to DSS then
