        Many thanks for a terrific job ts

        I'm wondering (have been for a while)if there's enough interest to keep this results thing going.
        The few comments seems out of proportion to the ever increasing list of teams.
        More than happy to carry on if our little band so wish.

            I appreciate what you are doing, edge, and hope you'll continue as long as you are happy to do it.

              I'm in agreement with cloughie, Rob, but I realise it's a hard task. I'd miss you if you weren't there at the weekend - it gives me consolation in defeat...not that we're getting beat too much at the moment, and long may that continue.

                  Hope you do carry on ER - might be worth asking everyone to reconfirm their allegiance(s) to possibly cut down the workload a bit .....

                    ...but I'll settle for ts as assistant! Particularly after the points yield he's got us in edge's absence.

                      Almost enough to help you catch the Blunts eh? I don't suppose you see it this way, but its good to see Billy back in the Championship and scoring goals.

                      Didn't you meet them in the playoffs, or was it a cup semi once ?

                      Anyway,pleased to have got you a 6 point haul.

                      I think, FWIW, we should stick to the teams that anubody is really interested in, which is in truth about ten. I always look forward to Rob's individual take on the games, and enjoy taking the holiday shift, but it does take a fair old while to do, and completely understand if ER decides to take a break from the results service.

                      But if he carries on, I think we should adopt Fort William as a board team. They need all the help they can get......

                        ts, I think the board teams have a unique spread right down the pyramid. As to the Owls- four matches coming, three of which against the current top 3 - 10 to 12 points from these could propel us into the top two, and demonstrate whether we can do the biz!

                          I certainly enjoy keeping up with events on the National league North, ( although it would be good to see Stockport moving up the pyramid a bit)and seeing how Truro are doing. I think if they could get into League 2, support would be very strong.

                          Just for clarity,I did of course mean teams that regular board contributors are interested in.

                            Thanks guys,you're all very kind.
                            I do enjoy following our bunch of teams (except one )so I'll carry on.
                            As ts says it can be time consuming,especially trying to find info on anything below conference and Scottish div 2.
                            Maybe we can review the number of teams at the end of the season

                                Good news that you're carrying on Edge.

                                I like the extra burst of glory on the forum after a win while there seems to be consolation on hand after defeat.

                                The Foxes are my first love so feel free to drop off CC if it helps!
