  1. Here's an example of what needs to be updated:

     

    CANNON, Nick
    Born 8 October 1980 (San Diego, California, USA)
    Actor and rapper who is married to Mariah Carey.

     

    She's gone through another marriage since then!


  2. In Queen Elizabeth's bio, you had not a popular DDP pick, probably due to the previous ones there was no health scare. She's definitely a popular one this time, so you should probably change that.

     

    The existing bios are well overdue for an update. The QE2 one was probably written way back in 2003!


  3. Graham Taylor's recent passing means that both managers of the 1984 FA Cup final have died (the other being Howard Kendall). So who remains in the dugout from the other finals of that decade?

     

    1980: West Ham United v Arsenal
    John Lyall (d. 2006) & Terry Neil (b. 1942)

    1981: Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester City

    Keith Burkinshaw (b. 1935) & John Bond (d. 2012)

    1982: Tottenham Hotspur v Queens Park Rangers

    Terry Venables (b. 1943)

    1983: Manchester United v Brighton & Hove Albion

    Ron Atkinson (b. 1939) & Jimmy Melia (b. 1937)

    1984: Everton v Watford

    Howard Kendall (d. 2015) & Graham Taylor (d. 2017)

    1985: Manchester United v Everton

    1986: Liverpool v Everton

    Kenny Dalglish (b. 1951)

    1987: Coventry City v Tottenham Hotspur

    John Sillett (b. 1936) / George Curtis (b. 1939) & David Pleat (b. 1945)

    1988: Wimbledon v Liverpool

    Bobby Gould (b. 1946)

    1989: Liverpool v Everton

    Colin Harvey (b. 1944)

  4. Right, some news.

     

    This morning I received a couple of emails, the upshot of which 4 teams will be added to the roster, meaning we will have 541 teams.

     

    This has had a knock-on effect on the Drop 40, so that's being re-jigged. Watch this space...


  5. Did you/are you dealing with the missing Wayne Barret unique for Thomas Jefferson Survives?

     

    I don't think he's missing in the "missing" sense, merely gone to ground...TJS may better explain why he was included though.


  6. Is just me, or can no one access the theme team league at the moment

     

    Not up yet. Still needs work. I haven't looked at the new theme teams yet. No List of the Lost either because there's no one in it yet!


  7. One thing I noticed when inputting the teams is that as far as the leading contenders are concerned (and I reckon up to a couple of dozen teams have a chance) is that the age of the unique pick is over...
