Have you ignored forest's forum or have they been rude and ignored your request?

Don't worry lads, I'm very much around - mind you, my wife isn't very happy at my taking out so much time this week!! 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

Amazed with the number of entries in today - will do you a general update shortly ...

Well, first off, I generally try not to go onto more than one forum of the same club, because I try to do things 'loyally'. Occasionally there's two, for the way it's worked out (Liverpool, QPR for example). You guys are my pure contact for all things DERBY 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

With Forest we're in touch with them on The A Block, it's not a big Forest site but at least it's a friendly bunch - but unfortunately they're not posting much at the moment on any thread!!

your point is.. ?

its just fun , mate , loads of other forums taking part..

dont want us lot to look like party poopers..

That's it, just a bit of clean fun really. If we really knew what was going to happen we'd go down the bookies and make a fortune instead of making a game out of it.

The way us guys on Royals Rendezvous look at it, is that after the BBC 606 closed down it's more difficult to get fans together, there are quite a few national forums of course but they've all sort of shared out the thousands of old BBC 606-ers so anything that brings forums just a wee bit together again surely is a good thing. No personal glory in this but pleased to do it, but it's eating up a lot of time as I said my last post!!

Think you may have missed one of our entries I counted 8

Yeah, I double-checked - yep, OK, and it's NINE finally.

But remember that JW_DCFC only made one choice: Derby v Tranmere (and not giving it as a surprise) which wouldn't help you much, because even if it was an upset he'd get so few points ('cos he forgoes the possibility of picking up points on another 4 matches) it would be sure to bring down your forum average, so I didn't include it! 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

So CumbrianRam is finally your 9th entry!!

Great start to upsets though - Brighton v Newcastle, eh? That's what it's all about!! 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

1

Wigan (PL) v Bournemouth (L1)

2

Crawley (L1) v Reading (PL)
