    *Official* English Football Season 2008-2009

    I'm reliably informed that there's a CW League on the official Premier League Fantasy Football site, that I'm not in. I've got a team (doing terribly so far - 770 points) but I'm not in the CW League. Any chance anyone could pass on the code so I can join? Cheers, lads. :)

    Yeah, I was hesitating about putting Regal on there somewhere, but besides Punk, there really aren't any other good mid-card faces on RAW that might be freed up. Kingston-Regal would be poor, and Kingston would benefit more from being in the MITB match. In the end, I thought that it'd be better...

    That match is rumoured, actually. It's rumoured to be the moment when Vince finally makes his dramatic comeback to TV. I can see Steph picking Jericho to represent her after picking him for Superstar of the Year, and Punk needs a high-profile match. Punk vs Jericho on the grandest stage of all...

    Well, I'm bored, so I'm gonna do another Fantasy WrestleMania card, updated to feature recent events. WrestleMania XXV - A Family Affair - A Five-Hour Silver Anniversary Spectacular WWE Championship Match - Brother Versus Brother Part II Jeff Hardy (c) vs Matt Hardy World Heavyweight...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Yeah, Cena will win the war, but I don't have too much of an issue with that. He is a face, and faces do win about two-thirds of matches - make that three-quarters at WrestleMania. However, I think unless they really want Cena-Orton as the final match at 'Mania (which it doesn't have to be -...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Don't agree with this at all. Think at the point when Cena got injured, it was really starting to hot up. The possibility of Orton finally being the one to take the belt off Cena had got a lot of people very interested, and Orton was in bad-ass mode, attacking Cena Sr. and all. Would like to see...

    Worst batsman ever to score a Test match 100

    Surprised it took four pages to get a mention of Agarkar in, TBH. He was awful. Was also somewhat of a hero around these parts once upon a time. How things change.

    Stoke had better not win, Rooney's captain of my Fantasy League team and I'm rock bottom of our 20-team league. Need United to destroy 'em.

    Frankly, yes. Hate Manchester United, would never be shy of admitting it. Don't expect unbiased opinions about them from me.

    Mate of mine has an almost pathological hatred of Hardcore Holly, it's hilarious. He derived far more pleasure than is healthy when Cody Rhodes turned on Holly and aligned himself with DiBiase earlier in the year. Believe the reaction was something along the lines of, "that is the single best...

    How Are You Doing On CM?

    Got FM2009 yesterday for Christmas from my Dad. Impressed so far, although my main annoyance is that my laptop isn't good enough to run the 3D match engine. Am I missing out on much?

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    I can see that happening, sadly. In the long run, if they really want to push HBK as as heel/tweener then they're going to have to go to great lengths to get the fans to boo him. They need him over as a heel if he's going to wrestle 'Taker at WM25, and if the cost of making that match as big as...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Yeah, same here, I kinda feel for the guy but it makes the Road to WrestleMania so interesting. Throws it wide open. Cena vs Orton in the main event of WrestleMania, one-on-one, would be a top notch feud and a top notch match. We've seen it all before as I've said, but this would be fresh. Last...

    I know United deserve credit for winning the Champions League and everything, but I'd be willing to go out on a limb and suggest that any club in the Premiership could beat either Gamba Osaka or Liga de Quito. Not exactly anything to get excited about.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Yeah, totally agree, I'd hate Batista to win it, but I can see it happening, especially if he takes a few weeks off and returns at the Rumble itself. There will never, ever be another match like that. Not even that match was supposed to be like that, if you read what Foley claims about it...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Interesting picks. I still think Batista-Cena's a lock for 'Mania this year, but the WWE have been surprising us a lot recently, so they might decide to go elsewhere, making Cena-Orton a possibility. My only gripe with Cena-Orton is that we've seen it before, a lot, and it would have to be a...

    I think Lauren himself will be off, but this outburst struck me as petulant, a sort of revenge act against the club for not giving him many games. I wouldn't read much into it. If Lauren wants to play more often, he should try not being **** every time he does play, that might help.

    Not sure what they're gonna do with him on his return TBH, but I don't think that'll be it - they've gone to great lengths to put Jericho over off his own back so far, and I think having a bodyguard would be a step back for him. It would take away the credibility of his claims about being "the...

    Have had some time to digest Jeff's big win last night following my initial mark-out, and I'm still ecstatic. There's one possibility above all else that makes me foam at the mouth - the idea that they might be going with Hardy vs Hardy at next year's WrestleMania. Think about it - Edge, in his...

    ***Official England in India***

    Ordinarily I would be embarrassed by this - but if you're going to lose a match like that, Tendulkar is the man you want to lose it to. Can't believe some idiots still doubt him.
