The competition is closed, the fixtures are announced, and that means that the time has come to announce the winner.
There was a lot of interest and entries for this competition and nearly 200 people put themselves in with a chance of winning the Newcastle United 2010/2011 Premier League season review DVD. The most common guess as to who we would have in the first game of the season was Liverpool which was picked a staggering 22 times. Norwich was a close second with 17 times with Manchester United rounding off the top three with 13 guesses.
In the end though there was just one person who managed to predict that we would be playing Arsenal on the opening day of the season. Congratulations to TonyGreenSupreme! As an added bonus I’ve found this musical clip of a rather appropriate song from his era.
Well done TGS! Standby by for an e-mail winging it’s way to you pretty sharpish in which I will be looking for your postal address so I can send you the goods.
To the rest of you, well done for entering and thank you for your effort. I’m sorry you weren’t successful on this occasion, but stick with us there will be more competitions on the way which you will be able to have a chance of winning.
Thank you all!

If craigcoozy is right and i know he’s been pretty good in the past. I reckon its got to be N Taylor and 2 others then as i’m assuming Ba is still staying at his hotel.
Looking forward to all the rumours on who the other 2 could be??

Craig is someone who works at the hotel Newcastle usually keep the new arrivals in. He then posts on .com I think, when a player has checked in and he has got a good few right in the past.

That would be nice TC but i’m not counting my chickens just yet!
Got a good feeling, not had since 2001 when bobby brought in Bellers and Robert, that this is going to be a good summer,

If we do a fanatsy league we should do the one from the Premier League website, I did that last season and it was good.

Ed – that Edline is disgusting.
Tell me what Fabricio did that was so bad, he never hid, he was always available for games, he played alongside that local geordie cockney hero Taylor – who makes every player he plays alongside a bimbling wreck.
I despair, and I am saddened you would be so cheap as to post that……and there was I thinking you used to play………
—————————————————————-
just found this, Stardy always knew collo was good 😉

Congrats TGS 😀
I guess I didn’t put Arsenal then 🙄 …..I probably put WHam or Brum then 😳

RT- He wouldnt of give you the prize anyway. To much P&P to spain, might aswell not enter nee more 😉 😆
SpencerTheToon(Quote)
Spencer….aye, he can shoplift the prizes but the P&P is a little trickier 😉 😆

😆 😆 😆
You have to pick it up 😆
SpencerTheToon(Quote)
Hah – Jobey – BSn9 used to think I was mad, but I always saw his class!
I worry folks are talking about Saylor for skipper. He is poor imo – hope he proves me wrong though as he does now seem to understand prob from watching Collo that he aint half as good as he thought he was.
Is there a smiley for a smug grin! 😉
I just hope Colo gets a new deal – CBs improve year on year usually. He has many more years at the top imo. He is the one player I would be crushed to see leave. Though I have a soft spot for Jonas too (very under rated by some)

Doh ❗ I was going to choose Arsenal too.
TGS ya **** 😆
nah, well played mate 😆 😆
So how does this fant footy work then?
Der? Never done it b4 lol

Basically each player has a value, you have to buy a certain number of players for certain positions(depending on formation), there’ll be a maximum number of players you can buy from any one club, you buy your team staying within your budget then off ya go 😀

Er! how do you get points then?
Beardsleys Boots(Quote)
BB…soz been for my siesta 😎 …..you get points for your players completing 90 minutes, scoring goals. defenders keeping clean sheets and lose points for red cards.
