We're just sticking pins in the paper this year, and the family picks are:
Irish Raptor - Me
Can't Buy Time - Mrs
Made In taipan, Tricky Trickster and Mon Mome :oops: - The kids
Stevie

The Package £5 EW
Eric's Charm £5 EW
“If he wants to learn about scoring goals, he should nip over to watch us train at Lennoxtown some afternoon and I'll show him a thing or two about finishing”
Going on form the package looks a good bet

Black Apalachi for me

They come from bonnie Scotland,
But they bow to Englands crown,
They really are a mixed up bunch,
They let their country down,
They're racists,thugs and bigots,
And we all know their name,
They're fans of Glasgow Rangers
And they're known as Scotlands Shame.
The wife and weans just had me run back down to the bookies there![]()
Got another bottle of tonic while I was at it though
Put 50p e/w on Ballyholland (for the wife), Snowy Morning (For my oldest boy) and State of Play (for my youngest)
