Agreed. So long as Liverpool v Huddersfield is in there, I've no real issue though, seeing as I still have Liverpool. I suspect it will be, seeing as he hasn't used Liverpool yet. It's still a total d*ck move. If he tries it without Liverpool, I'm going to suggest that we scupper it by all picking the same side, so we are either all through or all out. Of course, he may still be in the competition, but if he won it like that, there'd be absolute murder.

Halifax are worse - I don't think I've ever seen an ad from them that hasn't been either tacky, corny or pure cringe (usually it's all 3!), especially the recent ones with smiley staff dealing with cartoon characters. And as for those Go Compare ads with the opera singer and the sycophantic w****ers who appear with him and are apparently loving it...they can just f**k right off! Edit: I know how much you love the Australians so I thought you'd be delighted to hear that Fosters have seen fit to resurrect those ads featuring the 2 Aussie lads who give out social advice over the phone to folks in Britain. (and no, I'm not a fan of that one either).

Foster's have done some great ads, credit where it has due. It also has f**k all to do with Australia, other than they use Australia to market it. If we are going by that logic, Carling is a Canadian lager yet they have marketed themselves as defiantly English. In reality, both are English. They are also both disgusting, but the marketing must be working.
Actually, wasn't the 'Go Compare' lad singing in Gibraltar the weekend Ireland played there? Did anybody have a look? Edited by pre Madonna - 13 Apr 2019 at 11:04pm |

I'm running the Last Man Standing competition for our club currently. All picks have to be in before competition begins, a lot easier than chasing men each week to see what team they are picking. All fixtures for each week got from PL website, and if any game was moved because of FA Cup etc these still counted when they were played. Easy enough organised and updated. Only problem has been that there have been no real shocks so far so we still have over 100 left with only a few weeks to go

I was in a LMS a few years ago, a fella in work signed me up, his golf club were running it.
It was down to the last two, the other fella took Everton who drew on the Saturday and I took Arsenal on the Monday night, Arsenal were at home to Swansea, was waiting on them for £350, ended up losing 2-0 Instead of splitting the pot between the last two left, the golf club decided that there was no last man standing so it was a "rollover" and it went into the pot for the next LMS that they started at the start of the next season.

Isnt that common practice ? There was no last man standing,if there was to be a split it should have happened before those fixtures .

Nah, that's nuts. What's meant to happen in that situation is that the last two go again the following week, surely.

Local pub rolls it over to the next comp, the club one keeps going until a winner or if thenlast two agree to split it they can. Once its clear before the comp starts I’m happy with either. Mid comp changes and tule bending are the work of the devil.

A wild guess here, but would it be to do with the competition name?

Because they've survived (say) 12 weeks, whereas the chumps who get knocked out in week 1 didn't. Why is it fair to have a rollover where the lads who get knocked out in week 1 get another go around, while the lads who've picked a dozen or more games right end up in the same position? If everyone gets knocked out in any week, the players in that week go again... the players knocked out before that don't. It's perfectly logical.

That's not common practice at all is it. Jaysus I would have said that's a gangster move Any one I've been in, in such a scenario both players just move onto the next week until there's a winner.
