Kapowzer Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 2 hours ago, Jimmy Baker said: Not sure if using Rangers counts as an advantage these days! Dundee game has been postponed. How does this work now? You choose another? If Aberdeen get beat do we have to wait till whatever midweek is agreed to get the result for this weekend? If Dundee lose that game what happens? If Aberdeen win do you pick other games provisionally in Wk9 onward but could already be pied when Dundee play the rearranged fixture?

One for @Poet of the Macabre Yeah, I've been out and I've just seen that the game is off which given the rain is no surprise. I'll just make another pick for this week which should solve any problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've swithered between Stenny and Peterhead but I've decided on a baws oot choice and to go big or go home. Therefore my team is Week 8 Dundee Football Club This could end badly As the Dundee game has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch and the Stenny game is also off I'll go for my fourth choice which is Week 8 Peterhead Hopefully this is ok 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One for @Poet of the Macabre The front page has the rules which state: In the unlikely event of postponements, you will remain in until the following week but you will be unable to pick that team again. However, not relevant since @Jimmy Baker has switched his pick to Peterhead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had read that but it would have been a shithouse way to stay in it while the other two lads had a chance to go out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapowzer Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Yeah I’d reiterate that, seems the rain did indeed help secure it. Jimmy is the Noah of P&B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Baker Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Thanks everybody and thanks to @Poet of the Macabre for organising it I had a fair bit of beginner's luck, watch me get papped out in the first round next season! I'm kind of disappointed that it has finished. Just need a few coffin dodgers to pop their clogs between now and the end of the year to make it an inaugural P&B Last Man standing/ Dead pool double! Cheers again 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
