Alright guys. I've noticed that nobody has appeared to continue the cup for action in 2020. I couldn't let this behemoth of a dead pool die by the wayside, so I've decided to step up to the plate and host the Deathlist Cup in 2020. I do plan to be an interim host, and hopefully we can find someone willing to host this long term starting in 2021, but for now, the cup is safe for another year. See you around after the new year...

SC, R U TONgue-lashing us?

Thanks for keeping the Cup alive, Joey. Looking forward to playing as a competitor alone... well, until I draw Reptile in the first round for the third time in four Cups!

Well done Joey, thanks!

A noble sacrifice, thanks Joey.

Any chance he's a Scavenger hunt pick? (EDIT: nope grrr)

Three cows that had been swept out to sea when Hurricane Dorian hit North Carolina on Sept. 6 were found alive. The cows apparently swam from Cedar Island to Cape Lookout National Seashore park on the Outer Banks.

Lawrence Sigmond Bittaker, a serial killer on death row in San Quentin, has died of natural causes. He was 79. https://fox5sandiego.com/2019/12/16/serial-killer-who-raped-murdered-5-socal-teens-dies-at-san-quentin/

The Beast of Bolsover lost his seat on Friday - I was listening as the result came in around 5 a.m. Dennis was too ill - after a recent hip operation - to attend. At 87, got to be a good choice for 2020 I'd have thought ...

Today she becomes the first ever cast member of a best picture winning film to live to see its 80th anniversary. Thrilling tidbit for you.

Huh. You look different with shirt on.

Another lurker! I’m quite pleased myself to have steadily climbed into the top ten (for now) after a rather slow start this year. It’s really close for third place isn’t it?!

Happy 90th Birthday!

Yeah he said they didn’t get his birthmark quite right

Hello there. Are you trying to view the site at home or are you trying to view it at a work place? Cause if it’s the latter, the problem might be that the network your using may have blocked the site. If it’s the former, then I don’t know why it’s not letting you view the forums. Maybe a mod might be able to get a better explanation...

I find it amusing that both he and Dick Van Dyke share the same bday and both of their most popular films were alongside Julie Andrews.

CLUB STATEMENT It is with regret that we announce that our manager Russell McMorran has stated his intention to resign from his position as first team manager. His last game will be away to Wick Academy on 4th January 2020. Russell's impact on the club cannot be understated. He joined the club just over a year ago as Secretary and stepped up to take on the manager's role at the start of this year. Along with Jamie McGregor and then Mark Rydings they were able to stabalise the first team and get us through the season. Russell has contributed hugely to putting a competitive Fort William team on the park. So far this season we have reached the second round of the Scottish Cup, holding Albion Rover to a draw away from home and reaching the semi final of the North Of Scotland Cup. Although we currently sit at the bottom of the Highland League he has helped build a foundation that will ensure this club has an exciting and positive future and we thank him for that. We will be advertising for the position of first team manager and hope to progress this in the coming weeks. Peter Murphy Chairman Fort William F.C.
