Going all out on an Irish win tonight. You got to believe and have faith $:-\$

Any chance of putting names to the team names so I know who I'm up against in the mid-table obscurity stakes?

My team is Knocking On A Bit and I'm currently 7th

I missed the 1st 3 days transfers as i didn't understand the policy. I thought that when you picked your 15, you had to wait till next friday to change them.
