Morning all
I'm very aware that I need to kick-start C.H.E.A.P. again, after badly neglecting our little collection of cars over the past few months, but in the meantime I've also realised we haven't had a world football competition in a while (it's more than a year since 'Race To The Finnish').
So, with that in mind, welcome to 'Czech Mate'. All I need are 8 of you fine bunch to choose two numbers each from 1 to 16, and you'll then be allocated two teams at random from the Czech 'First League'.
The usual rules apply, but if you're a newcomer you'll pick up the format soon enough.
Any takers?

Yay - good to see it back, sandy. It's a game of total chance, though, so you've got to be praguematic about it...
I'll take 9 and 12 please

Ok then, here are your teams (which had been allocated numbers at random before you selected them, in case anyone feels aggrieved by their choices!):
1. Slovacko (BBLW) 2. Sparta Prague (BBLW) 3. Karvina (Countyfan) 4. Opava (Archie) 5. Teplice (Gazz) 6. Slavia Prague (Downy) 7. Sigma Olomouc (Maccy) 8. FC Fastav Ziln (Gazz) 9. Bohemians 1905 (Epworth) 10. Pribram (Downy) 11. Banik Ostrava (Maccy) 12. Jablonec (Epworth) 13. Viktoria Plzen (Countyfan) 14. Mlada Boleslav (Dudley) 15. Slovan Liberec (Archie) 16. SK Dynamo Ceske Budejovice (Dudley)
And, for those of you unfamiliar with the current standings in the Czech top flight, here's the current league table so you can all see how your teams have started the season:
1. Slavia Prague 2. Jablonec 3. Slovacko 4. Viktoria Plzen 5. Sparta Prague 6. FC Fastav Ziln 7. Mlada Boleslav 8. Banik Ostrava 9. Bohemians 1905 10. Sigma Olomouc 11. Pribram 12. Slovan Liberec 13. Opava 14. SK Dynamo Ceske Budejovice 15. Teplice 16. Karvina
The first set of fixtures for this weekend will follow....

Round 1 Fixtures:
Friday 23rd August
Banik Ostrava (Maccy) v Slovacko (BBLW) Sigma Olomouc (Maccy) v Teplice (Gazz)
Saturday 24th August
FC Fastav Ziln (Gazz) v Karvina (Countyfan) Pribram (Downy) v Jablonec (Epworth) Slavia Prague (Downy) v Bohemians 1905 (Epworth)
Sunday 25th August
Viktoria Plzen (Countyfan) v Opava (Archie) Mlada Boleslav (Dudley) v SK Dynamo Ceske Budejovice (Dudley) Slovan Liberec (Archie) v Sparta Prague (BBLW)
Some interesting fixtures here, bearing in mind you all chose your teams at random, with the highlights being:
1. Maccy could be out of the competition by Friday evening, since both of his teams are first up against teams higher in the table (albeit with home ties for both);
2. Downy and Epworth will face each other for both of their fixtures;
3. Dudley will be hoping for a draw, as both of his teams play each other, but at the same time he is the only player guaranteed to progress to Round 2!
Results next week!
