Best of luck, Ken.
Thanks mate. Same to you. Was going to put same as you, but didn't want to look like a copycat, lol!

Well done Ken. It was nip and tuck. I'll buy you a pint when we meet next.

Yes! Survived relegation by one point! Relegated Darren Woolley instead, sorry Darren.

Thanks Jon, commiserations. I don't know where the missing 600 or so fans were though, considering all tickets were supposedly sold?. Thanks for all your time and effort in the GTC this season.

Cheers for organising DC5.
I survive (just) in the top division.

5 points. 2 off!

Only 5 points for being 2 off!?
Yes. If you had got it right, it would have been 11 points. Maybe we need to look at the system. Willing to listen to any suggestions.

How about 20 for being bang on down to 1 for submitting a guess?

I'm a bit concerned about the current 11 being too many points. It could move a team a ridiculous number of places up the league. Too many variables makes it a harder job to reckon up but how about:

10 - Exact (posted at least 7 days before the match)
7 - Exact (posted less than 7 days before the match)
6 - Up to and including 10 off.
5 - Up to and including 50 off.
4 - Up to and including 100 off.
3 - Up to and including 500 off.
2 - Up to and including 1000 off.
1 - More than 1000 off with submitted guess.

I think we need an incentive for early guesses so that is what I have proposed. We never really know the capacity, so I suggest we drop it. Everyone has the same chance so, with the incentive for early guesses, it should not be too bad.

I'll start a new thread with this so everyone can chip in.
