^^ I hope so too.
I know this might sound unthought of, but Liverpool has the brightest chance of winning the league. They have played all the teams that matter and it's matches like this they really need to show their class and get all the points at stake.
Stoke got a win in their last game so I expect that to serve as a morale booster and so I expect a Stoke at their physical best.
Liverpool let go of a 1-0 lead and will be desperate to make ammends and return to winning ways. Overall, I expect a feisty encounter, a draw or a narrow Liverpool win

I'd be frank and tell her I cant take her shopping. . . I'd tell her that we could go see a movie though

The Nigerian Premier League is now ranked 3rd in Africa according to the latest rankings released by the International Federation for Football History and Statistics.
Egypt is ranked 1st, Tunisia 2nd. Ivory Coast and South Africa are 4th and 5th respectively

ask her if there's anyplace she'd love to go

Dolphins v Enugu Rangers

A difficult trip to Port Harcourt awaits Rangers after they laboured to a 3 – 2 win over Lobi Stars on Day One. But Dolphin has brought in experienced campaigner in coach Zachary Baraje to help out Stanley Eguma and it paid off in Jos with an away win. Expect Sunday Rotimi, Owusu Addae, Daddy Maurice and Emma Nwachi to give the Flying Antelopes trouble. But Dolphin could capitulate under the pace of Ejike Uzoenyi and co like they did last season in this same fixture.
Our prediction: 1 – 1

Juth FC v Gombe Utd

The Healers got a big result last week by picking a point off Sharks on the death. Tunde Rahman will lead out his side against the Desert Scorpions and hopes that they pick their first win of the season to remain in the top half of the log. Last time both sides met in same fixture in 2009, it ended goalless and Rahman’s men will be spoiled to dent Gombe United’s ambition this term. But this game has the trappings of a draw written over it.

Kwara Utd v Kaduna Utd

Kadiri Ikhana will throw every talent such as Kelvin Kpakor, Soga Sambo, Philemon Daniel, Monday Osagie and Yusuf Jaiyeola for this tie in Offa after losing to a late strike at Warri Wolves. Sani Aruwa, on the other hand, should be ready to continue in his playmaking role for Kaduna United though the home side will hope to invoke last term’s performance in which they did the double of Maurice Cooreman’s men.

Kano Pillars v Bukola Babes

It is going to be the first real test for Bukola Babes’ top-flight credentials in Kano. It remains to be seen how the newcomers will cope with Rabiu Ali, Joseph Thompson, Moses Ogaga, Isa Sharif, Abdulwasiu Showemimo, Alhaji Alhaji and Theophilus Afelokhai on a hot Saturday afternoon. But Erasmus Onuh is confident that his side though largely unknown can pull the chestnut out of the fire. “I don’t think we will just go there to lose,” Onuh said. However, it is a mountain to climb in Kano for the Babes.

Crown FC v Warri Wolves

Last term, Wolves could not win a single away game, but could have the chance of doing that this time in Ilaro. Gabriel Agu is the only recognisable name in the side of Crown Football Club and they face experienced gladiators such as ThankGod Ike, Chigozie Agbim, Emmanuel Omodiagbe, Sunday Mba and Efe Yarhere. Wolves look good for this one but it is too early in the season to pick points off new teams in the league at the moment.

Lobi Stars v Sharks
In six trips to Makurdi since 2003, the Blue Angels have managed to earn a point against Lobi. In spite of that poor record on the road to the Aper Aku Stadium, Sharks is brimming with talent and will hold out for a point in this game though Kingsley Odoh of Lobi proved to be one of the stars of Week 1.

Zamfara Utd v 3SC

It will be a tough trip for Shooting Stars especially without their two-goal hero, Gbolahan Salami. Fatai Amoo will turn to veteran Kabiru Alausa for the goals in this one and hopes that his men go a step better than last season’s 1 – 1 draw in this same fixture. But they will come up against Austin Kadiri, Gazali Muhammed and Ifeanyi Nwankwo among others, as they battle out for a point.

Sunshine Stars v Enyimba

Definitely all eyes will be on the Gateway International Stadium, Ijebu-Ode for this big game of the week. If they feature, Cletus Itodo and Ofem Inah will face their old team, Enyimba, on Sunday. Sunshine Stars’ head coach, Gbenga Ogunbote, will hope that his attackers come to the party with their shoes on against the champions in order to avoid an embarrassing start to the season. The Peoples Elephant still have Uche Henry, Junior Osagie, the Anyanwus and skilful Josiah Maduabuchi. The Stars will win this.

Ocean Boys v Plateau Utd

On paper, Plateau United look like having lost this one before a ball is kicked after that dreadful start at home to Dolphin last weekend. Expect Michael Andrew, Saka Ayo, Femi Thomas and Charles Omokaro among others will be all over Plateau United from the blast of the whistle. Ocean Boys will not drop points in this.

Heartland v Niger Tornadoes

There are a few distractions in the Naze Millionaires’ camp especially concerning Samson Siasia. But that should not deter Heartland from cruising to a win, as Monday Odigie appears to be in line to take charge in Siasia’s absence or exit. Ladan Bosso’s Niger Tornadoes struggled to pick three points against Crown FC and will struggle to keep pace with Heartland in Owerri.

Is this the match thread? If it is, I think it's coming up a tad too early.
Anyway, I can't wait eventhough Real Madrid have in recent times made it less of a fixture to look forward to. Four straight El Classico victories for Barca in the last four meetings, a record in the history of El Classico.
There is a new twist to the El Classico plot this season- Jose Mourinho. Last season was Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi and Messi proved yet again why he is undisputably the world's best.
There's no place to hide for Real Maga-rid. Forca Barca, Visca el Barca

ritchboy:
If JT scored his penalty kick in Moscow, Dayokanu will put Avram Grant "in the class of" Fergie, Capello etc

Good question.
If JT had scored that PK against UTD, Avram Grant would automatically have belonged to the same class as Mourinho and SAF?? You can now see that judging coaches by continental trophies they have won is terribly flawed. Is Quique Sanchez Flores in the same class as Mourinho because he won the Europa League and super cup with Atletico?
Coaches should be judged based on the consistency of their performance. Eriksson can not be said to be a good coach considering his performances in the last decade. He has not done well since leaving Lazio. A good coach should be able to deliver any and everytime. Can we say Berti Vogts is a good coach because he won Euro 96 despite the fact that he has been useless ever since?
A good coach should be consistent. Guss Hiddink was sacked at Real Madrid and Real Betis but he was able to dust himself up and revive his reputation by taking Korea to the semis of the 2002 world cup.
Wenger has been super consistent. From Monaco to Nagoya Grampus to Arsenal, he has delivered and he will deliver everywhere else he goes

CAF Champions League Final:
Esperance vs TP Mazembe(0:5)
Date: 13/11/2010
Time: 6:00 PM Nig. time
Venue: November 7 Stadium, Raddes, Tunisia.
This is nothing but a mere formality. TPM are 5 goals up and I expect them to just park the bus for the entire duration of the game. But it's football, you can never say never.
If TP Mazembe wins, it will be the second time they are winning the champions league back to back. They were the first team to win the CAF Champions League back to back when they won it in 1967 and 1968

Contrary to what people might think, I think Siasia should be allowed to retain the Heartland job. It will help him monitor the local based players. Besides, the Super eagles is not an everyday job. They should allow him do both jobs
