Actually that's a better response than I had expect Shaunmarn ;)

Obviously every supporter would think their own league is the best, I just thought it a little arrogant for the organisers to assume they were the best in the world. I guess there are no fact or figures to back up this claim?

so why are the majority of our games on a Friday night again??

cus Friday is P.O.E.T.S day

should i have heard back yet about my membership?
dont forget im upgrading

No, nothing much out about it yet...
