Derby Dead Pool 2020

Recommended Posts

While we are on the topic.  
Joe Schmidt - Detroit Lions NFL --- NOT the rugby coach from Ireland (though I suspect both are awesome gents).  
Again -- it's called Made In Detroit.  

Now I'm wondering if there's another Berry Gordy or Robert Wagner out there in the world...

Hi Sir Creep - you put details of who each person was when you submitted your team so we’ll be able to sort. 
 

cheers, GUN


Done did.  Surely I cut/paste my PM and pasted on these pages.  But that's a good point to all -- put who your people are just for this reason!  :)

Jeez, well I can still switch those names, but it's very late... did I or someone else on the committee miss a mail?

And I only do it this late because the theme makes it clear that there was a confusion. 

Expect it tomorrow or sunday...

Relaying from msc that his laptop is in need of repair and his DDP updates will have to wait until further notice.

 

Thanks.

 

It's going in to get repaired this week so shouldn't be too long, hopefully.

Anyone choosing a team of Iranian politicians this year would walk away with the theme team prize.

Hmm

 

What if  someone testing positive for the virus kept their used tissues and tossed them over the wall whilst passing Brinsworth House?

I’ve just noticed that John Prescott, the professional Tom Jones impersonator, is apparently on 5 teams, including a theme team of uk labour politicians. 
I’m going out on a limb here, but I suspect that may not be the John Prescott they meant.

Actually, if this is going to be as big a year as 2016, my aim now is to keep my whole main team alive!

 

*prods Reaper firmly in the chest*

Well, prodding seems to work! Sol Kerzner taken.

 

Might be only once mind.

And with a tip of the hat to Mr Willz, the DDP front page has had an overdue update.

 

Also, as for some reason the site autolinks to unfinished pages, you might note the start of a work on progress from the links maze at the top of the page - that being the long awaited DDP Archive... That's a long term project however.
