    No offence BCFC but I think any of the teams left to pick are capable of a little run at least - except probably BC

    If you can't get rid of Ipswich then Mrs GG would have them. But I suppose it would go against the nature of the sweepstake- the rest of us have had no choice in which team we get. Plus she's not a member of the forum. Just a thought though.

    GG - if Ipswich has not gone by January 4th then Mrs GG may have it - better to have someone with it than nobody

    Well, thanks ever so much, but just forget I asked. I should have run this idea past herself before suggesting it to you. It turns out that she'd rather not participate; as a non-member of this board she doesn't think it is fair. Sorry to trouble you, though I don't think any harm is done, is it?

    Al - afraid you cannot pick a team but must pick a number which then tells you which team that is

    I will give you the lowest number remaining if you like - which is 20 - or you can choose from 20,24,27,29, 31 38 or 39
    You will have 20 if I do not hear otherwise
