I'm simply lost for words, so I think I'll just go and have summat to eat and then do the Prediction League. Or have a lie down in a dark room.

Carlisle 1-2 Latics (HT 0-1) - Nepomuceno - 4,908

And League 2 doesn't exist? Even so, what the hell are the EFL doing showing live games on iFollow and thus depriving clubs of the revenue generated by fans who would have attended? I understand that clubs only receive £6 per person who stumps up the ten quid, when they would have received the usual gate money had said fans gone to the game. Talk about kicking you when you're down.

I'm just relieved that no one asked, "How's your Brazilian?"

Listen to Pottechino. He says "all the player" and, probably, "all the fan". If you tried to speak French in Paris or German in Berlin, would you want to be corrected by the locals? Probably not.

I'm hoping that's a case of Mr Medic trying to show Mr24 the error of his ways. With Mr24 around, I imagine you'd need one. Or two. Or three.

Yes please. Make it happen, Abdallah.

I had @rudemedic as predicting Lang as first Latics scorer when, in fact, he had predicted Surridge with a (very) last minute edit at 14:49 on Saturday. Not sure how I got it wrong as I entered the predictions after 15:00 whilst listening to the commentary. However, the table and the prediction list is now amended, so all is well that ends well. Have a great Christmas, y'all

Cheers mate. And to you.

Apologies for the images being a bit blurred. Advanced editing isn't available on the hosting site. It was a good job Surridge scored first for Latics otherwise there would have hardly been any points scored at all. So, the final tables of 2018. The top eight in the Premier League end the year without moving, so @Ex_pat stays top, but @singe drops back into the relegation zone. In the Championship, @Benja and @HarryBosch go into the New Year in the automatic promotion places and there are no newcomers to the play off places. From 13th down, no one moved. There's no change to the top six or bottom six in League 1, but @mcfluff1985 is making a bid for a play off place. I think it's safe to say that @Kusunga_Is_God and @oafcprozac need a miracle (posting a prediction would help). My laptop is still making funny noises but, according to the guru, it should be fine until after New Year, then it goes to the computer hospital while we all enjoy our jollies in Fulham Premier League Championship League 1

Jesus. There's something of a misnomer there. They've called Andy Haines a referee. All we need now is Ross Joyce, Trevor Kettle and Chris Sarginson for the next three League games and we've got the full set.

And today, they cut the commentary as Mike was part way through the half time scores and didn't return until after Latics had gone 2-1 up. Mike/Roy had to reboot but had never been informed by iFollow that they weren't on air. iFollow are supposed to be able to monitor when commentaries have started and finished. As for the problem I've had that I mentioned above, I did not have to turn off my antivirus or Adblocker. In Kaspersky settings, I found I needed to turn off Private Browsing and Banners. Hey presto, videos and commentary, but what a ball ache. Yes, I have let them know, but I doubt it will do any good. Bunch of charlatans.

You don't give up, do you? Such a shame you'll end up disappointed.

Latics 3-1 Exeter (HT 1-1) - Nepomuceno - 4,173

Dunno if this helps, but I've just had this conversation with iFollow. Read down and you'll see that he wants me to disable Adblock AND Kaspersky. I can't view a single interview or highlight. The last commentary I tried was the Rochdale game and could only get it on my phone or tablet. Anyway, here's the chat I've had this evening. Great innit? Why can I no longer see any match highlights, interviews or listen to any commentaries on iFollow when I can access the likes of You Tube, BBC News etc without any problem? There has not been a problem in the past and my subscriptions are up to date. Me Hello, my name is Thahid. How may I help you? Thahid Can you see my message above? Me Which browser and device are you using? Thahid I'm using a Dell laptop and I have the choice of Chrome or Edge. Me On your chrome browser will you be able to tell me what add-ons you have in your extensions please this can be found by doing the following Click the Chrome Menu icon from the browser toolbar. Highlight the Tools menu, then click Extensions from the sub-menu. Thahid OK. Done that. Me What extensions do you have on the list Thahid Quite a few. Hang on, please.

Thahid They never have before and I certainly don't want to disable Kaspersky. Me You can disable it for Oldham Athletic site only there should be an option If you do not disable these extensions you will be restricted from using our services. Thahid OK, so why has this suddenly happened after all this time? There has not been a problem since iFollow took over from Player. Me There has been an update to the website. If you do not disable Adblock and Kaspersky you will be unable to access certain content Thahid That's crazy. When was the update? Incidentally, the service is still fine on my phone and tablet. Certain content? I can't access ANY content.

Thahid No, that's it thanks. Me Have a great rest of your evening! Thahid Thanks Me

What's he got to do with it?

Just got mine online. Straight through with no problems. Happy days.

Same problems for me too. Just keep trying, I guess.

@disjointed top scored in the Premier League with 6 points, 5 of which came from his attendance prediction, only missing out by -3 and lifted him out of the relegation zone. @Ex_pat stays top of the pile, with @a259 moving into 2nd place. @singe scrambles out of the relegation places, whilst @JoeP and @GravityGrave (who failed to post a prediction) drop in. In the Championship, @Benja did the best with 7 points, moving into 2nd place as @yarddog73 takes over at the top, @Harry Bosch falling to 3rd place. 4th to 6th stay the same, as do the bottom four. It's going to take a superhuman effort of @josh_latics and co to get out of the mess they are in, but posting the odd prediction might help. @Stevie_J is just rubbish and looks a likely candidate for League 2 next season. @maddog was the highest scorer in League 1 (9pts and only -6 off the attendance) and leads the table, becoming the first player this season to hit 100 points. The top seven and bottom five all stay the same, but a shout out goes to @L1onheartNew for being the only player to correctly predict the 4-2 victory. A quick note. I'm having a problem with my laptop (it's making some very strange and annoying noises and it's only 4 months old), so it's going in for an emergency operation. I've saved everything to a USB, so nothing gets lost. It's also on a shared cloud so, if I'm nice to Mrs Bristol, I might be able to use hers. Please just bear with me if the next table or three are a bit late. Bit of a bugger right on top of Christmas. Premier League Championship League 1

Latics 2-1 Bury (HT 1-1) - Lang - 4843

So you CAN walk on water.

Good luck with that. As far as I'm aware, you're the only member of the 1922 committee, so one vote won't do the job. I'm not sure how many times I have to tell you; WE ARE NOT ADOPTING ANY OF YOUR HAREBRAINED IDEAS. SO THERE.

Oi, don't you start this bonus point malarkey. I've got enough bother deflecting @lookersstandandy and his (not very) bright ideas.
