An arse. And look at Sunderland in 14th. It's high time he was cast out from MOTD anyway. Nothing to say, nodding off, slouched in his chair like a lazy bleeder. Can't you use your pips to stick him on the wireless or something, Captain?

You both going to enter the prediction league next season I trust? We need some fresh blood, only takes a minute or two each week. Everyone else welcome as well of course.
Oh, and we need to someone to run it, just basically a copy and paste job, and then present the table in a reasonable manner, and it is traditional to write a line or two of commentary.

I'll be in it for sure. It's a long old haul but this means that you have time to pull yourself out of a rut and climb the table, I guess. Isn't Painbow running it again? If not, I can't blame him, it's a big thing. He's done well this season. Or wait a minute, is it Fury? I don't know.

It is a long haul, but like you say, you will have some terrible runs in this game so you need a lot of matches so that the cream gets a chance to rise to the top. Obviously there is a lot of variance when it comes to predicting matches, sometimes you're hot, sometimes you're not. Painbow is stepping down, so we need someone else to do it.

Painbow is knackered. I want the joy of predicting without the torment of keeping on top of the thing.
By the way stan, the pre /pre function here is shit. You should get some practice in.

I haven't said I'll do it yet! Let's see if we can find someone else who is a little more eager and organised first. I trust when you hand over the reins though you are going to give some training and coaching to ensure a smooth transition.

I can coach them to go to a better site with superior functions. To be honest, it might juts be easier to link to the BBC site when updating. Let people look at the league there.

Impressive.Painbow's method is slightly better, as a mathematician I prefer to have the units aligned up correctly like his does, but at the end of the day, that will do, quick and easy, I've bookmarked the converter so whoever takes it over will have an easy job!

Not as neat as mine. Just saying. I agree, but it is an improvement on that horrendous, unreadable table that time you did the straight c&p job from the BBC site. And that took me about 30 seconds (once I found the converter) Big shoes to fill admittedly, but if you don't feel anyone is up to it then there is still time to change your mind, just like Fergie once did when he heard Sven Goran Erikkson was taking over. So next season, I think we'll have: You Myself Stags Carl I think AJ said he'd play Runie maybe? Fury? And maybe some more new blood with... Izzy EBPV mangekyoalleluia And maybe even one or two of the more fringe posters will have a go, the two German posters, amongst a few others, and FJ if he ever comes back, Hopefully be enough numbers to keep it competitive.

Do we even know if the Beeb are gonna do it again?
More players definitely makes it more interesting. Though we did actually start with 12 and people dropped off which I expect will happen again.

I imagine so, I mean Lawro has been doing these predictions for years and years, so this is just an extension of that. Once you've written the code in the first place, it isn't really that much more hassle to continue. Although they should probably think about re-writing their code more efficiently, and use something like SQL, because I know they have about 398,000 players overall, but the processing speed shouldn't take as long as it does to update. Yeah, I think if we can get 6 or 7 dedicated players then that is enough, a few will drop out, so we're gonna need a few more than that, the more the merrier really.

I'll be in as usual.(and won't be doing my 1-1 experiment any more) As usual by the time August comes around we'll all be excited again and somebody will start it up no probs.(not me) And AJ is starting the Champions League one in September, he's more of a Monaco/Juve man so I doubt he gives a feck about PL scores.
