You did: I took it off the to-do list yesterday - although I now see I did not alter the text that came with it!
Musty will be submitting the rest of his set this evening but has already done his prediction for tonight's game.. We've also got two to come (Away and Lyndhurst) for Monday's game at Port Vale. Pending those: I did an online coin-toss which came up tails, so I've selected the second of Lyndhurst's two jokers. He can alter that at any time before 12:30 tomorrow when the first Saturday games kick-off.
Another defeat.....and a local derby cannot get Argyle firing on all cylinders.....such a poor performance.....I still maintain that these players are at least mid-table performers.....just lacking leadership......Cleverley needs to start looking like a manager soon or we will be heading for Div 2. So 2-0 defeat and no one predicted an Exeter win......we made them look like a good team.....something has got to change soon.

At the end of Saturday Argyle are in 22nd position. With the worse defence in the league for goals conceded.
Only if it is the result next Monday.....or are you psychic......if that is the case....we'll have to ban you....because of unfair advantage......
As far as I can see, everyone has ended up with valid forecasts for all the matches. Well done all considering what a mess the fixture list is becoming. I fear that changes to the Premier League TV coverage has increased demand for lower league games to fill in some slots and this may be the new normal. There's one game to play on Monday (Port Vale v Stockport) but here's a quick snapshot.
It is hard to believe how poor our scoring was this weekend .....I thought my pathetic 4pts would have had me bottom of the pile.....but only three predictors beat it.......I certainly didn't see Wimbledon losing at home to Burton.....that result did Argyle no favours at all. Between us we only got 4 matches correct with the correct score.....how on earth did we manage that.....so that was eleven matches multiplied by nine predictors.....equals 99 predictions......so we got 95 wrong and only 4 right..........
I'm going to annoy you all now. Not a rare occurrence I'm sure. I've just noticed there's an odd game scheduled for Tuesday 4th November. That's after the FA Cup 1st round next weekend but It does not form part of the 12 match league schedule to be played on the 6th and 8th November. So therefore, we might as well wrap up the three odd games in one scoring round, namely: Tuesday 28th October Bradford City - Lincoln City Mansfield Town - Plymouth Argyle Tuesday 4th November Rotherham United - Burton Albion I think most of you have done forecasts for the first two of those and you won't get any more information on which to forecast Rotherham v Burton than you do already as neither team will play in the league between now and then. Obviously you need to give me forecasts for the first two if you haven't already done so, but any time before 4th November will do for the third. I'll have a think about FA Cup games. Certainties will be: AFC Wimbledon v Gateshead Bromley v Bristol Rovers Wycombe Wanderers v Argyle (a grudge match it seems) Any smart-ass comments from Musty or SMH along the lines of "why isn't my club in your list?" will result in a 5 point deduction.
