If Hunters doesn't reply, btw, you are of course authorised to correct his total yourself.

I was going to get him a calculator for his birthday. The Excel program does it automatically

There you go, Ralph.

Thank you Admiral. Spot was dozing in the corner. A bit like many a VAR Official I suspect

So there will be three divisions, Ralph, will there?
Or are we supposed to vote for one, or two, of the three?

Good point Admiral.

It's a choice. 1) 2) or 3)

OR

Do we stick with last season's Leagues?

OR

Derek Scott v Ian Brennan

RalphCoatesComb

The Tin contained not a single cherry A bit like our forward line at times, not a single shot on goal ! Hopefully, we'll have a hat-full of cherries in my tin ;) Drainage will commence at 14.00 ! We have some issues that need resolving on the Spot The Ball thread. Head over and see if you can assis...

New Leagues for 2021

Choices at present are:

Tom Heaton v Nick Pope

Ray Pointer v Willie Irvine

Robbie Blake v Steven Defour

Spot says he's open to suggestions

RalphCoatesComb

Looking good so far, 25 entrants already. 7 hours to get your estimates in.

RalphCoatesComb

That's a good start.

Come on down. Your team needs YOU !

RalphCoatesComb

West Brom's goal difference is worth a point to all around them.

Bye Bye BFS

We need him to stay in position. If Rafa ends up there it's not good for us.

You're right but he deserves some kismet for everything he's done !

Sacked in the mornin, you're gettin sacked in the mornin

Sacked in the morrrrn'in

You're gettin' sacked in the morrrnin !!!

Newcastle 1 Weeds 2 (After 86 minutes)

Difficult one for me here. Who do I want to lose MORE?!

I'm happy for them both to lose !

All Entrants should be aware that in the case of shared points for any of the separate fruit Units, each Winner will score 0.5.

Bonus points for any spot-on Estimates however will not be divided.

Thanks for that clarification Admiral

I'm going to stick that label on my wife's backside !

VAR are looking at a possible Red Card for that one

RalphCoatesComb

What's in my tin? Pieces of Peach, Pear, Pineapple, Grapes and Cherries BUT 1) How many of each type? 2) Total number of pieces of fruit? 3) Amount of Grape Juice? (I must say that I prefer mine "fermented") Usual rules apply. Spot is on VAR. According to the label on said tin, if you are not entire...

Love to be in a spot the ball rather than a spot of bother that I normally frequent!

Join the Club... I'll take that as a YES then

That's going to be an interesting afternoon on the touchline

RalphCoatesComb

HOT OFF THE PRESS My mate with the Box Brownie got a new printer for Christmas and has offered to produce a Special Edition Spot the Ball print for this season's winners (Cup and League). Spot has even offered to sign them . Obviously, they will be worthless in future but a must-have for any True C...

Good on you, Ralphie.

I'll take care of the leaderboard at least, with your permission.

Up The Burnley Clarets!!

All yours Admiral. Me and the dog manage to make a meal of it even without the tables

RalphCoatesComb

Go on then. I'll get my bio-hazard suit on again and scoot on down to the Supermarket.

Entries will start at 18.00 this evening

AND, for those not already registered for Spot The Ball this year, see the STB thread.

RalphCoatesComb

It seems this is why Buxton has been neglecting his Food Count Estimating lately. No doubt Spot gave him earlier info about the new STB season before Ralph announced it, and he has been training in secret ever since. What hope then for the rest of us when the competition starts? :( What hope indeed...

Only just seen this

The Leeds (Champions of Europe but not actually) of Spot The Ball will have a do again please.

Looks to see if Buxton (Spot's owner) has entered..... oh yes he has.

I'll give it a miss then.

No probs. You have until Monday to change your mind

RalphCoatesComb

Looking for some value?

Draw Half-time / WBA Full-time (Currently trading around 60/1 on Betfair)

Crazy? Yes, but that's what happened last week at Anfield.

RalphCoatesComb

Just a few more regulars to sign up now. But, we won't be starting until next Monday 1 February

RalphCoatesComb

I have NEVER liked him. A complete two *** !

I hope he takes Newcastle down this season

I trust Spot has been wormed prior to kick off, we don't want him dragging his backside across the pitch, its difficult enough as it is.

Careful. You don't want to upset the VAR official before the season kicks off

The first game will start in one week (1 February), with the result being declared before the Brighton game.

RalphCoatesComb

But have also noticed a welcome change from certain refs who ignore these cries and motion just to play on A very important point. Players who play to the crowd, by screaming like a banshee, merely make themselves look silly. Have any of our players behaved like that? Will Refs continue to ignore s...

If someone had told me that we were going to win at Anfield via a late penalty I would have laughed at them. Do you think we'd have been awarded the penalty if fans had been present? I doubt it very much.

Err, NO CHANCE !

RalphCoatesComb

Lots of the Usual Suspects on board. Looking good !

A twix doesn't cost £1.50 in the real World

RalphCoatesComb

For me, it's that we needn't fear any team (Apart from Citeh that is

). Any team can be beaten.

With Nick Pope, Ben Mee and James Tarkowski at the heart of our defence, we are MEAN. Once our strikers hit form, points will flow.

UTC !

RalphCoatesComb

23 players already !

RalphCoatesComb

But it was Vydra that earned that Pen (even though it was very soft)

Long hadn't read the script

There's been a good amount of interest. Any more?

Sure signs of Diabetes and high blood sugar if you're peeing so often. If you're feeling lousy and losing a bit of weight, I'd get to the doc if I were you.

Thanks for that. Just had my MOT and I am "perfect". But I get the point
