Wooden spoon decider here, must make sure to disorient my opponent with well-crafted picks.

The descendants of the losers of the Wars of the Roses, and Ramblers FC
(who play where Messi can't do it on a rainy night)

I have no idea. I'm in complete crisis-mode.

???

I pick Blackburn Rovers and Plymouth Argile.

MH, please be gentle.

I have as little idea as you do. Watford, because they have a Canadian (Koné).

I like this thing of posting results immediately:

Tier 1
----
Mark 0-0 Werner Pichler (Millwall - Stoke City)
milivella 1-2 MH (Blackburn Rovers - Watford)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
9 5 9 3 6 4 Mark
7 5 9 8 1 5 milivella
5 5 5 7 -2 5 MH
4 5 3 8 -5 4 Werner Pichler

The Mark-Werner match was selected by random.org, even though it ended
up coinciding with Mark's first choice. It wouldn't have been quite fair
to let him get the best of his two picks when he was past the deadline.

Mark still has some work to do to secure the title (what an inept biased gamemaster I am!), while milivella could still in theory go down, but it
would require a quite unusual combination of results.


Tier 2
----
Futbolmetrix 4-0 Jesper Lauridsen (Leeds United - Ipswich Town)
The Doctor 1-2 Jesus Petry (Blackburn Rovers - Watford)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
10 5 10 4 6 5 The Doctor
9 5 9 5 4 4 Jesus Petry
5 5 6 4 2 5 Futbolmetrix
4 5 3 15 -12 5 Jesper Lauridsen


Jesus prevents Doc from securing promotion, while in the wooden spoon
battle, the House of York comes away with a glorious triumph. But it
ain't over till it's over...
