Obviously with this morning's news I will be suspending the Fishy Buster and Prediction League until the season restarts.

May have to may a couple of tweaks when it does depending on the number of weeks left as they may play some game that would have been a Saturday in midweek, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Guess you’ll have to put that ‘this is my year’ T shirt back in the wardrobe  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Just a quick update on this.

Obviously as each week goes by it's seeming more and more likely that this season won't actually finish,

No problem really with The Prediction League as no money involved and I could just void this season if needs be but a bit different with the buster. I've already paid out two £50 prizes, so it's not as simple as just refunding everyone's money or giving everyone a free go at the next buster.

I'm wracking my brains a bit as the best way to resolve this IF the FA/EFL decide to write this season off. It's looking like The National League (whose teams are in the buster) have already done this.

Any bright ideas as to what to do IF the worst does come to the worst.

Still to pay out is £300 to the winner, £50 to the lowest scorer and two £30 prizes at random between all non-winners, so I'm still sitting on £410 in prize money.

Just restart it the first week all six leagues are playing, this season or next.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.
