Last week we got 6 right each. Like Manchester United neither of us is off to a winning start. Here are this week's fixtures and our predictions. Can John Johnson see off the evil and did I mention evil Tom Thom(p)son?
-----
Birmingham v West Ham - Tom says Birmingham. John says draw.
Fulham v Boro - Tom says Fulham. John says Fulham.
Newcastle v Villa - Tom says Newcastle. John also says Newcastle.
Portsmouth v Bolton - Both Tom and John go for a home win.
Reading v Everton - Tom says Reading. John says draw.
Spurs v Derby - Home win for both John and Tom.
Wigan v Sunderland - We both went for an away win here.
Blackburn v Arsenal - Tom says Blackburn. I say Arsenal. Boooo, Tom.
Man City v Man United - Tom says home win. John says draw.
Liverpool v Chelsea - Tom fancies his beloved Pool. John thinks Chelsea will win.

Ok, if you listened to this week's podcast, and I'm sure that you did being folk of great taste and education, then you'll have heard us talk about Sunny Stephen.
He's listed in Spain's squad for the U20 World Cup in Canada and we think that name is very funny. It made us laugh, quite literally, not out loud.
Anyway, we're looking for footballers with funnier names than that. What name is funnier or better than Sunny Stephen?
Maybe it's a foreign player whose, name translated into English, because really funny, such as:
Antonio Gordo (Fat Anthony) or Juan Quer.
We already know about Danny Invincible too.
So, leave a comment here or email podcast@oleole.com and we'll go through the names collected on next week's podcast.
cheers
ps - no goldfish were harmed during the making of this week's podcast.
