Well, there was a lot of information you provided so a few mistakes are allowed! Luckily there are people on the ball who are only too eager to correct them as best as they can. I have to say I like your blog as it gives me all the football results in one place so I get an overall view of what’s going on in the world of football without having to make much effort myself!
