    One of the "Big 4" will have done a Leeds United and collapsed under the weight of their debts, either because Abramovich has tired of his plaything and left them in the lurch or United/Liverpool's dents to the banks become unmanageable.

    Arsene Wenger will create footballing history by fielding a foetus for his side's Carling Cup 3rd round match against Macclesfield. The foetus scores twice before declaring his unhappiness at his lack of opportunities at the club.

    Manchester United manager Eric Cantona guides the Reds to a 6th successive European Cup after pioneering a revolutionary 0-0-10 formation, with 143 year old Ryan Giggs keeping a record number of clean sheets in goal after Cantona forgets to sign any keepers.

    Eamonn Dunphy slams Giggs, calling him a "poofball tramp" who is not fit to lace the boots of A.Foetus, who signs for Barcelona for a transfer record of 127.4 trillion Cowens, the new worldwide currency named after the hero who saved the world from uber-recession.

    Gary Lineker says something funny, and Alan Hansen something insightful. The resulting shockwave kills 23 people.
