I'm actually enjoying the craziness of this football season. Chelsea's dominance aside (which is not so bad considering how many teams are actually giving them a run for their money lately, Blackburn scoring 2 goals against them is just as bad as crashing out of the carling cup of drawing with everton).

Wigan are making me laugh. Chelsea may have the premiership wrapped up but i'm gonna be hard pressed to bet who'd come second/third. Liverpool, Man U and Arsenal are having their worst ever season so far.

As for today well...

5 goals in the manchester united game, 5 goals in the portsmouth game and 6 in the chelsea game.

At least ol' 1-0 Everton didn't let us down.

They being Boro? Well, one of the goals was a penalty, Hasselbaink has scored only his first (possibly second) league goal, and then there was also an unlikely goal from Mendieta. Also, from what I can tell from the Radio 5 commentary, the Man U defenders are being useless this evening and Boro have had countless chances that they've failed to convert.

Earlier on Football focus they were saying that they weren't scoring that many goals.

Got the Liverpool all right just wish i had put the banker on it.

3-0 Middlesbrough

I don't believe it. Now Boro are beating Man U 2-0.

Snap.

Edit: especially now Bolton are beating Charlton.

Perhaps my worst week ever.

But I don't mind.

Ah right, it's the score of the home team, and not whether they won, drew or lost.

I always thought if you predicted a 2-2 draw between someone, and it for exmaple it finished 1-1, you got 2 points, one for predicting a draw for each team. Not so?

you get 5 points for a correct result ;)

1 point for correct outcome
1 point for correct score of home team
1 point for correct score of away team

2 bonus points for perfection!

4 out of a possible 6 for me.

Got Spurs-Arsenal correct, and get a point for a Wigan win.
