Tip for the title
Man Utd, with a weary sense of inevitability, because they were the best last year and have strengthened at least as much as anyone else, if not more.
Player to look out for
That Wayne Rooney seems pretty good.
One change to make it a better experience for fans
The return of terraces. If not, loaded paintball guns on all seats.
The team I support
After a very shaky period, Middlesbrough really came together under Tony Mowbray towards the end of last season. I am an eternal pessimist in sporting matters, but am allowing myself the odd wistful dream about a playoff place.
My earliest football memory
Watching the Souness/Armstrong-era Middlesbrough drawing 1-all with Burnley at Ayresome Park. Leighton James was their man of the match for them.
My football career
Don't play now. I was never any good, and I am crocked in a hundred different ways anyway. I was a bad central midfielder.
Guaranteed headline this season
"Roo Beauty" - the very worst of the tabloid subs' efforst but they're addicted to it.
Advice for footballers who use Twitter
Tweet on you crazy diamonds!

Sorry.
