What do I know about football?
Not a lot, according to the current World Cup Fantasy League run by the Metro newspaper. I currently sit at the bottom of my work league, and have over 200,000 other Metro readers in front of me in terms of points from the first round of World Cup games - even my girlfriend is beating me!!!
Top of our league is the Chelsea supporter - he was lucky enough to be able to buy 11 Chelsea players with his £100,000,000 (and Kaka was his other choice!), something that Roman is hard pushed to do these days.
I obviously tried to do the same with Charlton players, but Cory Gibbs got injured and I had to dump him before the games started. I looked for a number of other Charlton stars, but for some reason Darren Bent wasn't available? What a poor decision that was in hindsight eh?
Hopefully the number of transfers and substitutions I've made tonight will push me up the league table before the week is out, but I doubt I can win from here - a bit like Ukraine!
Come on England!
