Yes, apologies, as Helen said we had hoped we could turn them off but unfortunately it doesn't seem we can. It is on my to-do list to re-label the rankings and re-distribute them across a wider range of posts. So it will be sorted shortly. In the meantime, please do enjoy the forum patronisingly patting you on the back for no longer being noobs. 

Hurrah, I've now progressed to "Community Regular", though that still has connotations of a creepy bloke hanging around the local parks and libraries! 

After 13 years on the site and over 10K posts I've now just been upgraded to 'Rookie'
crikey, you've got to earn these badges around here ....... ?
?

I did suggest we turned off the badge system which came with the latest update, but unfortunately it doesn't appear to be possible! Think my next badge will be that one too, maybe we should meet up in a corner somewhere
 

Whilst it's mildly amusing to progress through the new site rankings as I make more posts I'm sort of hoping I get off the current one fairly quickly. Being told I'm now a "collaborator" does sound a bit like I'm being accused of wrong doings during WW2! 
Edit - this post has earned me the coveted "conversation starter" badge!

Back weekend of 5th Feb

All the best for all of you here!
 
Lets this be much better year for all of us!
 
Cheers!

FA Cup on the weekend of the 8th Jan.

Anyway take a well deserved break. Happy new year and thanks for all of your hard work throughout 2021.

All the best to anyone here and better 2022

Happy new year everyone !
Let's hope we get full level footy back in a week's time ....... should have the European leagues back as well
all the best Avongirl ...... ?

Happy New Year to one & all!

We'll take a one week break
There are a number of postponements in the English leagues, Scottish Prem matches are all off and only French cup and Spanish matches scheduled in the European league.
Things should hopefully be back to a more normal scheduled list of matches weekend of 8th Jan.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU

Will sort out what matches we have to play with this week and put odds up tonight.  It's likely to be Boxing Day Games (so deadline this week will be Sunday) and pretty much looks to be only English and Scottish leagues.

The English and Scottish League matches are (currently) scheduled for this weekend but there are no European matches.   Additionally there's a second batch of matches scheduled for 28th/29th/30th which includes some Portuguese Liga ones.  
As it seems likely that more games will fall to postponements I'd like to give as much choice as possible so I'm going to give the option of both sets of matches and the Portuguese ones for this game week. 
I will need you to indicate clearly which game you are picking as many teams will appear twice.  Preferably use Team A v Team B format and quote the odds to make it completely clear.  If you only show one team name and no distinguishing odds I will default the bet to the first game that team plays.   You are allowed to pick the same team for both its matches in your combination if you wish.
For this week there will be no penalty for a 'no show'.  If you prefer not to play this week, for instance if you normally pick from the European matches and would rather not risk your bank with unfamiliar matches, you are under no risk of elimination from the competition. 
Deadline is Sunday even if you are picking from the second batch of games.
Hope this is OK for you all.  I'm keen to get a week in whilst it is feasible in case we end up with a firebreak week.  Wish me luck settling the bets!
Happy Christmas to everyone! ? ? ?

Thanks @avongirl for another brilliant competition! 
Looking forward for the next one!

Thanks Ian  Lady luck was on my side this time, maybe she will turn Your fine art around next season
And thanks to Avongirl for a brilliant competition again!

I believe last day was my only winning bet if am not wrong and it landed me into top 3

Congrats @Pempi, it was a masterstroke backing Blackpool in the final round, best of luck in Division 1 next season Michal 
If anyone desperately wants to jinx a team and wants them to lose a game, just ask me to bet on them to win it. I've got it off to a fine art now 

Thanks @avongirl and others for continuing to run such a great comp.
that win must be one of the latest and closest as nice scored in added time for my bet to win and I got ahead of likearoughie by £2.06 in the end 
well played all

Boo,
PM sent, thanks @avongirl  for running the Football Tipster Competition.
Woooooooooooo I won a mug
