    Is it OK to make Stockport my Joker, having forgotten to add it in my predictions?

    I don't think notDistant would object to that Ron.....the game hasn't started so I see no problem.

    I’m usually quite strict about late jokers - I mean double point matches, not Plym being last in of course.

    Statistically, it seems right everyone should have to pick from 12 matches, not less. However, as it’s your first go, I’ll allow a special one off never-to-be-repeated deal.

    I sound like a discount store don’t I?

    I appreciate I wont be able to use a Joker!

    End of Year 5th - End of Season 5thm(and promotion via the play-off's!!)

    Don’t rub it in SMH!

    Welcome back. I’d thought of renting out your spot to Ron!

    Can we have less talk about coming from behind and the Lionesses please. Gets more like a Carry On film every day on here.

    That is the first time I can remember 12 games being played without even one of them being a draw.

    Sorry about the rather late kalukations.

    After a long debate about whether my other half should have a new mobile phone (I said yes, there are great bargains out there with the iPhone 17 launch on the horizon, but she said no, so no it is), she ran out of airtime on Friday.

    And so the world fell silent. A large swathe of the mobile phone network was switched off due to an unexpected collapse in phone traffic. A great hunt was started to find anyone who actually knew her account password. After great confusion, it finally became clear yesterday afternoon that she HAD been reconnected all the time, but a switch that nobody knew existed or had access to in her phone settings was "Off" when it should have been "On". I'm to blame apparently.

    So, what I've done is to produce the results for the Old Guard. I'll then set to on adding Ron and providing the final results.

    A great start from Lyndhurst with Musty not far behind. Three points from the Goal Time just scraped me into double-digits otherwise Sensible and I would in reality have been bringing up the rear as SMH only got one game forecast in.

    Home wins for Cardiff (20) and Rotherham (12) were the top points generating games.

    Meanwhile, here is the match text for the next round.

    Port Vale - Cardiff City
    Peterborough United - Luton Town
    Reading - Huddersfield Town
    AFC Wimbledon - Lincoln City
    Barnsley - Burton Albion
    Bolton Wanderers - Plymouth Argyle
    Exeter City - Blackpool
    Leyton Orient - Wigan Athletic
    Mansfield Town - Doncaster Rovers
    Northampton Town - Bradford City
    Stevenage - Rotherham United
    Wycombe Wanderers - Stockport County

    For some bizarre reason, this kicks off at 8pm on Thursday 7th August.

    The idea of this Ron is to save you the trouble of typing out the team names: just copy it and insert your predicted scores. Or, if you really, really like typing the same names out every week, you can do your own... but please don't change the order otherwise it'll all go horribly wrong.
