Only four of us did this last season. I won't commit just yet.
Yes as I said in my initial post I really was undecided whether to bother again. If there is not much interest or it starts to drop off as the season goes on it may stop. All in all this will probably be the last year that I arrange this.
-
Was not sure if I was going to do this again but here goes. Sorry for the delay but will start with a couple of weeks of double predictions to catch up
Well here we go again with the start of a new football season. Let’s see how good we are at predicting results this year (assuming there is interest!).
If you want a prize at the end of it there are plenty of competitions available on the internet, this is purely for fun and enjoyment. Because of time constraints this is limited to a max of 8 (priority given to those who have played before).
Rules are the same as before. 3 points for an exact correct score and 1 point for predicting the correct winner or draw but not exactly the correct score. Eight matches to predict each week. Since most people are familiar with the Premier league this will be made up of 6 Premier league and 2 Championship matches (occasionally this will change in the event of a week that is taken over by European matches or FA Cup matches).
Enjoy

Well, I might catch some flak for this but...
My next gig is Taylor Swift in June.
(edit) - if anyone understandably just associates TS with her pop/electro pop output, they are missing out on a very interesting artist.
I would love to catch one her shows....she has recorded many great songs and from different genres.
Enjoy the show

R.I.P. my Dad. 26.04.24. Maybe not what this forum is for but I'm writing this anyway!
Neil Young once said it's better to burn out than fade away but I'm not so sure. My Dad was 95 and at 62 I'm pretty old lose a first parent and my Dad certainly faded away. My first father in law had some hit records and died after I divorced (28 years ago) in his 50s. He did ok
My second father in law was full of life, had loads of hobbies and was always keen try everything new. He was a big band fan but gave a one day rock tribute band festival a go at age 78 and liked the Led Zep band having never even had heard of them. He died at 83 from COVID not wanting to go.
My Dad had a happy family life married for 71 years kept ballroom dancing into his 90s. His last 3 years in a care home with mum were increasingly crap and he literally faded until he could do no more than nod or shake his head about whether he wanted a cup of tea. He fell asleep yesterday morning and didn't wake up. He said 2 years ago he had a happy and good life full of laughter but had lived too long and wanted to go. He was old fashioned with little interest in new things, didn't want to travel the world. He saw his 4 grandchildren grow up ok and saw this 5 great grandchildren, now between 18 months and and 5. Old age and death is always going to be crap but I think a good and happy first 91 years fading for the last 4 but seeing your family grow, being ready to leave life and knowing you're loved is ok. P.S. I'm a little pissed and just listened to It's Gonna Get Better and Fading Lights. I've been not been around here for while but it made me I think of you all. A little tear but I'm ok. I'm atheist but he will stay in me. He's no longer distressed..it's good . PS. I also got my I/O boxed set today which also made me think of this site.
(See the PG thread)
So sorry for your loss. It is a hard thing no matter what age. Am thinking of you

Beat in October (King Crimson alumni Adrian Belew, Tony Levin with Steve Vai and Danny Carey)
I bought tickets but it looks like I will have to cancel Billy Idol and Yes with Deep Purple in August due to surgery, sad but my health comes first. All Canadian shows.
Hope your surgery goes well, as you said health should always come first. I have missed 3 concerts over the past couple of years due to ill health.
