UEFA.com's correspondents predict each team's starting line-up. Fantasy Football strategists, take note.

Any other brave forecasters out there?

[Striker]

Just sent the payment with the reference Striker. Look forward to receiving the League Pin and playing. Thanks!

[SamD]

Thanks, Striker. PIN sent by PM.

By the way, sender's name is the only reference on a Nationwide statement, hence request for surname with application post.
Fortunately, I know you're one of the two or three D Brownes who play TFF...

Are you contravening my team name patent? Last season "Nigels to the Right" and "Jeremys to the Left"

But it sounds to me as if you've got two right feet.
