WEST HAM v MIDDLESBROUGH TALE OF THE TAPE Ian Barker
Hislop v Schwarzer
The football community has now forgiven Shaka for his moment of
madness when he signed and played for Newcastle. Hislop is a true gent and does
a lot of work for charity. Schwarzers no charity case though. Watch him
knock Shaka out with two Oxfam shopping trolleys and a Haynes manual
to
boot in the third round.
Hislop 6pts Schwarzer 8pts
Repka v Pogatetz
Tomas was the ongoing joke at the Boleyn ground and maybe still is.
But
how Pogatetz gets the left back spot ahead of Frankie however is
certainly no joke! On the plus side Poga has a wild side. Watch him and
Repka got toe to toe all day. Split decision!
Repka 6pts Pogatetz 6pts
Ferdinand v Riggott
Let's hope the brains don't run in the family as far as Anton is
concerned! Riggott on the other hand has a masters degree in sports
science from Derby Polytechnic. Yeah I know they're all uni's now, but
it was the poly. Watch Riggott, put his cap and gown on and teach
Anton
a lesson or to in how to defend. Riggott to win in the eighth.
Ferdinand 6pts Riggott 7pts
Gabbidon v Southgate
The former Bluebird is settling well into life in the Premiership but
he's about to be given the shock of his life. Gareth has put his
domestic "issues" to one side, and is gunning for Graham Kavanagh's
former room-mate big time. Watch Southgate give a classy show which
will leave Gabbidon applauding for no more! Southgate to win in the
sixth.
Gabbidon 6pts Southgate 8pts
Konchesky v Parnaby
Paul's family are better known in the classical musical scene, whereas
Paranaby's family is football born and bred! Watch Parnaby (who is
modelling a new Frankie style haircut by the way) show Paul that
football is in his genes. Parnaby to win with a pair of Levi 501's.
Konchesky 8pts Parnaby 6pts
Benayoun v Quedrue
Frank is a bit miffed off of late as his hard man spot is under
threat. Watch Funtime lay into the Israeli as he reaffirms his number one
position with some quality bone crunching tackling. Frank to win with
two head butts.
Benayoun 6pts Quedrue 8pts
Reo-cock-er v Boateng
Shock, horror, George was not his usual outstanding self against
Grasshoppers. Me thinks he was saving himself for the Hammers. Watch
Reo
find out who is the real IRON man as George dents Cocker's armoury with
a
powerhouse of a display. Boateng to win with two slaps.
Reo Cocker 6pts Boateng 8pts
Etherington v Rochemback
Etherington sounds like a posh village in the Mendip hills. Whereas
Rochemback sounds like some kind of killer rattle snake. Watch Fabio
come good and unleash a tirade of venomous shots that will leave
Matthew looking for the antidote. Rochemback to win in the ninth, with
a snake charmer.
Etherington 6pts Rochembak 8pts
Mullins v Mendieta
Mendieta is starting to come back to form isn't he? Well let's hope so.
Mullins will ask Mendi "What's it like to play for Valencia, Lazio and
Barca?" Mendi will reply "crap compared to the Boro!" Split decision.
Mullins 6pts Mendi 6pts
Sheringham v Morrison
Sheringham's still class.
Sheringham 8pts Morrison 6pts
Harewood v Yakubu
When Marlon's not filming Emmerdale he manages to play a bit of
football. Yakubu likes watching his soaps, whereas Marlon likes
dropping his, if you catch my drift. Anyway Yakubu and Harewood will
battle it out with a TV and Radio Times respectively. Yakubu to win
with
a TV remote in the last round.
Harewood 8pts Yak 9pts
Total scores:
West Ham 72pts Middlesbrough 80pts
A 2-1 away win to the Boro.
