Trome 82 Posted yesterday at 05:26 The 2024 DL is about to fall behind the 2014 DL, if this drought continues until 30th June it will also fall behind the 2009 DL, although I think this drought will end before 5th July, probably some of these will give the expected result soon: Carter, Chomsky, Redgrave, Kennedy or Greenspan. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonny Rollins, Sly Stone, Joe Bugner, Denis Law, Josef Fritzl along with the names I suggested a few posts above (Woodward, Brokaw, Flack, Rantzen, Starmer-Smith, Baxter and Gall) that could provide hit successes.

Steve 463 Posted yesterday at 06:55 Bob Newhart should certainly not be discounted too. Never rule out the potential of a surprise with a name that none of us are expecting imminently such as Hans Blix or Patricia Routledge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lafaucheuse 3,731 Posted yesterday at 10:24 Honestly, everyone’s talking about Carter and Chomsky but I can’t understand how Woodward is still with us. She should have been nº2 on the list also. I sense she can be a hit soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 10,476 Posted yesterday at 13:14 What's happening now is highly unlikely. The list is not bad, has a ridicolous amount of decrepit nonagenarians that one of them should randomly die each month. Carter, Chomsky or Woodward have demonstrated their immortality. But among the others Murray, Greenspan, Kennedy, Laine, Gall, Brooks, Skinner (Immortal material), Baxter, Routledge, Hackman, Blix, Newhart (how still alive?), Farrakhan, Tebbit, Nelson, Flack, Marcos, Rollins could die at any moment. The result until now is just fucking nonsensical and does not depend on list quality. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoorSlammer 458 Posted 22 hours ago This is a pretty unique DL year in general, because usually at this time of the year there's been a couple of deaths by former DL picks too, yet names like Minnelli, Hurd, Attenborough, Faithfull and Ronstadt are all still alive. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Tebbit will keel over in shock on the morning of 5 July. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
