Just to let everybody know that we'll skip this FA Cup weekend, and start again with the first week's league fixtures of '09.

Right then, scores on the doors from Boxing Day:

Pooky - 22

RKL - 18

Damian - 15

Kelly - 13

Nicky - 13

Special mention for RKL here: well done for not coming last this week (although you're still propping up the table).

All of which means the first table of 2009 looks like this:

Nicky - 160

Damian - 159

Pooky - 148

Kelly - 147

RKL - 142

I knew "A" Level math would come in handy one day. I'm pretty sure 136 + 22 = 158.

Just sayin'

Villa 2:1 Baggies

Everton 3:1 Hull

Toon 1:1 Hammers

Sh!t. Elementary math error corrected by a skate - does it get any more embarresing than that?

The table should of course read:

Nicky - 160

Damian - 159

Pooky - 158

Kelly - 147

RKL - 142
