I am signing up to the following if any body wishes to follow me. I will update and post the league table on this thread. Did ok last season but joined late and was unable to catch up the leaders. Here's hoping for a better result this season!!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/challengelawro/index.shtml
The new Premiership season kicks off on Saturday and this year BBC Radio Five Live's Challenge Lawro will be bigger and better than ever! What's more - we've also teamed up with BBC Sport's Football Focus. Tune into BBC One every Saturday from noon for the Premiership pre-match build-up and to hear the presenters give their predictions on the weekends' Premiership action.
Win with Challenge Lawro
The prizes aren't bad either - the Manager of the Month is invited onto Five Live's Drive programme to give Peter Jane and Mark, their footie predictions...and also awarded one of our shiny new Manager of the Month medals. At the end of the season, the player who has scored the most points, will be presented with a special Challenge Lawro trophy by the man himself. They will also be offered the chance to come into our London studios to be a pundit with Mark Lawrenson!
Last season, over 120,000 people registered to play Challenge Lawro. If you think you can take on your friends to be the champion of champions, then get playing now!

Yes got most of the results right this week if not the scores.
As for bcfc i think the next 2 weeks will show if we have turned the corner. Not sure how Savage will react to the bid from Blackburn, i just cannot understand why he would want to go there. He has been brilliant the last 2 games after a very average season where some of the fans did get on his back. You hate him but he is great to have in your team.

Not had a problem yet. Didn't have an issue last season. Maybe its the server response time. Maybe you need to wait a bit before closing the browser or drifting off to another site?

I got 80% of the last three sets right and quite a few correct scores. Wasted my jokers though else it could have been better. Dropped back a bit this morning to 20th after the Newcastle result last night.
Personally I think it would take a miracle to win this league. I think you need to be very lucky in order to do it. Will try my best though.

Looks like they voided a chunk of results over the festive period. Maybe an IT issue or something like you mention? Gutted!!

Oh lordy, looks like saints are doomed. Only won two home matches all season and now five of the last seven are against the top teams. It's been a long and rewarding 27 years in the top flight but I just can't see us escaping this time unless last years promoted teams really mess up. Just isn't the hunger there and last night looked like a team of hastily assembled second string professionals with no passion. 50/50 chance I reckon now.
I'll go off and sulk for the remainder of the day.

Too right Scrip.
Interesting Cup draw - I presume that your team will be the first choice match for TV - 2 well balanced sides with the small matter of local rivalries adding extra spice. Which side will Harry be managing come the game itself is anyones guess !
Else the draw was kind to the big teams - all being drawn at Home.

LOL!
I couldn't believe it when they came out of the hat. We already played them in the Carling Cup last year as well. We should have met this year also if we have beaten Watford but both teams fell at the same hurdle.
