    Simply and fairly short game this one. You just have to predict the following:
    1) The next date xxxxing Nev will say he is going to update the Prediction League
    2) The date on which xxxxing Nev will actually update the Prediction League
    3) Any excuses he will come out with before he does finally update it

    Rules and Scoring
    1. You must predict day, month and year
    3. Points will be awarded as follows. (5pts for correct year, 20points for correct month, 100 points for correct day. Points awarded for month and day only if you have correct year and month respectively
    4. For excuses you may list as many as you want and each will score 10 points when/if he commits them to print
    5. Competition not open to Nev or any of his family (I doubt he has a wife and kids though)

    First Prize - Two tickets in the Milburn Stand for a match of your choice
    Second Prize - Two tickets in the Milburn Stand for a match of your choice (but you have to take Nev with you)
    Third Prize - Two tickets in the Milburn Stand for a match of your choice (but you have to take Obi with you and his seat will be right in front of yours)
    Fourth Prize - Two tickets in the Milburn Stand for a match of your choice (but accompanying ACS wearing his mustard chinos)
    Last Place Prize - Two tickets for a Sunderland game of your choice (using season tickets kindly donated by ACS)

    Anybody else think these International Weeks are boring?

    a) Been snowed under at work
    b) Been snowed in at home
    c) I recovered but my computer caught the virus off me and sneezes whenever I press the Enter key
    d) I was eventually diagnosed with Ebola and have spent the last 6 weeks in an isolation ward where I couldn't log on to Not606
    e) I was just doing it to wind you all up.

    Sorry I forgot Rule 6. 200 point penalty if you copy another Posters entry. Looks like you will be using your Sunderland Season Tickets yourself mate

    I just hope he's OK.

    Even when he wasn't updating the first prediction league he was still posting. Hasn't posted since the 30th Oct.

    I hope so too - but only because I am going to look like a real twat for putting this thread up if there is something wrong with him.

    a) I was preparing the rules for my next mafia game
    b) No, no, really, I was genuinely ill, honest.
    c) I was secretly working for HMRC and the Fraud Squad, investigating suspicious dealings by someone named Trevor.
    d) I was preparing my application form for the role of Sunderland manager
    e) 50 Shades Darker had just been released on box office
    f) sorry, I'm just a useless lazy twat who over promises and never delivers - oh wait that's not an excuse that's the truth.
