Coffee House FC
Peter Hoskin 6:50pm
In the interests of maintaining a healthy competition between political blogs, Coffee House has entered a team into Iain Dale's Fantasy Football League. Of course, it will be a sufficient reward to finish above 'Iain Dale's Hammers'. But should we win the £100 worth of books and DVDs on offer (and we're quietly confident...), we'll use them as prizes in Coffee House competitions.
Anyway, here's Coffee House FC, as selected by James and myself:
James (Portsmouth)
Shorey (Aston Villa)
Campbell (Portsmouth)
Woodgate (Spurs)
Evra (Man Utd)
Bentley (Spurs)
Barry (Aston Villa)
Modric (Spurs)
Gutierrez (Newcastle)
Torres (Liverpool)
Defoe (Portsmouth)
If any CoffeeHousers want to join the league, just follow the instructions on Iain's blog.

Who the hell is James, Shorey, Campbell, Woodgate etc?
I thought this was a political blog, and I cannot be the only person on this planet who doesnt give a stuff about football - if indeed it IS football and not some other incomprehensible thing.

PLEASE save me from that!

All I can say is this: put on your metaphorical shorts, lace your boots, slick vaseline on your forehead and mentholatum on your jersey and charge into Iain Dale's bottle with the battle cry of the Elliott-Pyles, "on me 'ead Daleo!".
