    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    So do some of you share potential candidates and discuss them together off forum?

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    There is something seriously amiss with my google search capabilities - even though I know the full name of this person, their reason for 'fame' and that they are Spade's joker I can find no indication anywhere that there is something wrong with them.

    Vera Lynn

    Seems to be a recent interview No mention of her impending death or even ill health - just looking forward to her 102nd birthday which is on 20th March.

    My computer is only 4 minutes from my changing room so the full track is too long for my walk on

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    Please do not upset our wonderful host. The rules are quite clear - the fame line is wherever msc wants to draw it and we should all be good with that because he's prepared to put in all this effort for our enjoyment - particularly impressive is the midnight shift every single month end for 6 months.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    Spent a while choosing between Donbavand, Starling or Hammer trying to decide which to joker - looking at list I can't have been alone. Must have read the same article about Starling and Hammer about 5 times hoping some new clue would spring out of the page at me. Good luck Captain Chorizo - looks like a good match up. Quintana totally off radar for me.

    I didn't think that conversation would end well for me.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    Okay but they could have and seriously where is the need? Just wait 12 hours and msc posts it for you. PS If I hadn't already entered a team I might be swapping in Bat McGrath.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    Not that it's possible to stop it but I think it's wrong for teams to be published before the entry cut off even when both teams from a match are complete - it can provide teams that enter at very last minute more names to consider and their opponents may have already entered.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    No offence to everybody else and I know this has been said before but those 4 ties look more like the Quarter Final draw. Good luck everyone!

    I presume DDT knew this was fake news and took the opportunity to throw a few Cup hopefuls off the scent.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2020

    Yeah but if she was going to die in the next month would she really have had to leave the series to spend some time with her? Surely in that situation she would just have gone away for a few weeks?

    Football

    "I'll give my life to make the supporters proud of their club." Rodgers said. Slightly surprising quote bearing in mind what happened to the owner not 6 months ago.

    The EU Referendum Hokey Cokey

    Agree - and of course once a No Deal Brexit is eliminated then the likelihood of any Brexit at all is weakened. Which will put the JRM gang in a tricky spot when it comes to voting on TM's new deal (same as last one) as this may be the only Brexit they have a chance of getting now. Now where's my yellow jacket.........................

    Journalists

    The column Bill Heine hoped he would never have to write Current treatment not working any more - only drug left to try is one never used on humans before (it would be appropriate if it had only been used on sharks I guess?).

    Guess the film/movie

    You're walking the right streets but it's not a documentary.

    Guess the film/movie

    Neither of those are my answer but I realised there may be other possible answers. i'm guessing you are trying to squeeze Supersize Me into being both the Oscar nominated film and the Oscar winning film? They are separate films.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2020

    Unless you can add ill to that description then I wouldn't be putting her on a list for another 12 years at which point her risk of dying in the next 12 months rises above 25% (which would give list an average 12 or 13 hits. Most 85 year olds are frail to some extent and you have to be well known to make the list (in theory) - famous old people should maybe be added to the list as fillers if the committee run out of famous ill people but they should be starting at centenarians and working downwards.
