    Send a PM to Cthulhu or me regarding which one(s) you would like to do. The extant list is on the first page of this thread.

    I suggest for the two Liverpool games we just have:

    I ******* hate Liverpool

    and then close the thread

    You have the one in December miked2006. Ybotcoombes you have plenty of time to prepare for the one in February.

    I will do one if there are any going. Has FA Cup Round 3 been taken?

    I've written a back up just in case, it's very simple:

    Watford v Crystal Palace

    Wonder if we'll have more than one shot on target.

    The End.

    In the spirit of getting this together over the festive season a couple of questions. I'm doing Muff away in the New Year.

    Text is pretty 'oven-ready' (will maybe need some amendment if there's a 'Pearson effect') but I want to migrate some pics in and haven't got a scooby how to do that really being a decrepit, old techno-luddite.

    So:

    - Everything I post on here is done from a smartphone (Galaxy 9) and it looks like I would need a URL for everything and find it hard to identify them,

    - so is that the only way? Does that mean I'd have to migrate directly rather than saving pics to a personal gallery file in the first instance? Is it easier on a pc/mac as opposed to a smartphone? And,

    - are there potential copyright issues if using pics from a commercial online gallery?

    Ta. My IT whizz housemate will be back from NZ in time to vote so will also be able to advise me on Friday next. And witness the totally unexpected resurgence at Anfield.

    I use imgur to upload files and then share the link. I can do it from my iPhone if it is in photos, I assume it work work on a gallery. It is easier in a pc/Mac but not that difficult on a phone.

    yes you could have copyright issues, I doubt they would notice but not sure what the mods rules are on here. There are lots of websites that provide copyright free / creative license images if you want.

    It is easier on a laptop. I've never worked out how to put pictures in from my Android phone but on the laptop it's a simple right click and "Copy image address".

    It's a ball ache on a phone however my advice, find the images on your phone internet then save them to your gallery, then post the images from there.

    If I’m being brutally honest folks, the unfortunate ‘health’ issue that my family are going through right now means I am putting my thoughts and efforts into a good Xmas this year after recent events...

    So on that basis, I was down to do Wolves on New Years Day - but I simply can’t devote the time to making it a decent effort sadly. I’ve seen above a few people asking to do a preview so I’m forfeiting mine.

    Obviously I’ll be around the forum offering my usual opinion every now when I can do it quickly - just anything time consuming will be on the back burner!

    I've put you down for the Tottenham match on the 18th of January. :) Please let me know if this is acceptable. Six other previews still require write ups as well.

    Guys - I’ve noticed no one has taken my place for the Wolves game in a couple of days time. As per my post above, I don’t have the time to make a decent one...

    Hopefully you'll preview your Sunday anyway if we don't beat Tranmere?

    Will be preparing the Manure Cup tie o.p. ready to hit the streets for 10.pm. on Thursday if needs be. I trust cthulhu is happy for me to do this despite my having done the Muff one just recently.
