Greetings, football fans! Our football team for the 1999/2000 season was under new management. We, the rat-boys, managed the Rat Palace Wednesday squad in the 199-99 season, but this time we decided to let the girls play. The Gobi Girls chose their squad on a similar basis to how we chose ours - silly names, lack of hair and the fact that they play for Sheffield Wednesday. The team is founded on personality; their ability to play football has little to do with it! Due to the unfortunate deaths of all the managers, we boys stepped in once again to manage Lokomotiv Gobi.

The girls chose the classic 4, 4, 2 formation. Here's the starting line-up:
