OK, after I posted it as a 2-pointer I thought "actually, that's probably only a 1-pointer" and I was proved right.

Anyway, well done Al, let's see how you get on with tomorrow's Fiendish.

Less than a month now until fbh pastes up the first question. He has confirmed he is on the case with the assembly of questions (y)

1 December is a Friday so will he go fiendish or follow the Stroudmeister Precedent of an easier lead in where Friday is the first day ?

Will obscure Derbyshire villages, street names and their closed pubs feature ?

How many times will Payhembury be offered as an answer ?

Will Swanny put up a warm up question for The Hound to slot in ?

Will the QM be card happy ?

Rather like the Grand National past form is often a good guide to this particular race and here are some stats for the past 4 years, oldest first: NP = not in first 6

Alistair20000: 1 QM 1 QM
Spoonz Red E 5 1 QM NP
fred binneys head NP NP NP 1
HH12: 2 3 3 2
manc grecian 6= NP 4 5
iscalad 4 6 NP 6
STURTZ NP 4 2 NP
Greyhound NP NP 6= 3
OmanGrecian 3 NP 6= NP
Colesman Ballz 6= NP 6= NP
Red Paul NP 2 NP NP
Swanaldo NP NP NP 4
Banksy NP NP 5 NP
Rosencrantz NP 5 NP NP
ecfc70 NP NP 6= NP

Shirley Mr Dozen's turn to win must come soon :unsure:

If I had to nominate someone with no recent form of a top 6 slot I would say Bridgy showed considerable promise last year
Always fun to revisit pre-season predictions :)

Only a couple of days left, so come on Exewebbers, if Man City can stumble then anything is possible ...
