Congrats all! --- Overall, @super_ram snatches top spot from @liampie with @Joshua making up the top three... --- The next round is on Saturday, so the fixtures will be posted here on Wednesday. Thanks for playing everyone, let the post-mortem begin

Luckily not! Otherwise I'd probably be dead. The main memory from my PE lessons in the 90s were the cross country runs. We just walked for most of it, but broke into a jog when the teachers turned up in their cars to check on us. It also involved negotiating a farmer's field with bulls in it - I ran that bit!

Accrington looked very Conferencey to mee and we know how that ends. However, you can only beat what's in front of you and we lost against some very poor sides last season. Winning is a habit, long may it continue! Regarding Scott, it's a bit unfair to judge him based on a cameo. However, many of his appearances have been cameos, and often out of position too. His spell with us has been stop-start in general, and while that isn't anyone's fault, I think the next few months will be important for him. I hope his injury isn't anything major.

Talk about a storm in a tea cup. This one has been whipped up by people who are obsessed about "free speech" when it comes to using racist language - but when Lee Carsley exercises his own freedom not to sing a song, the sky is suddenly falling down. Good on him for sticking to his guns and annoying all the right people.

I think that comment might relate to him getting help with an alcohol problem. He's not the only Notts player to have had problems there. Hope he moves on and does well with us - if there are any issues, back he goes.

On 7 September 1953, Nikita Khrushchev was elected first secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Khrushchev became better known as the initiator of the Cuban missile crisis, one of the biggest gambles in history that took the world to the brink of nuclear war. If you fancy a gamble with slightly lower stakes, we have some prediction league fixtures coming up. These all kick off at 3pm on Saturday, and remember your joker!

"Net Zero Watch" is hardly a credible source. It's funded by US-based oil interests and climate change deniers. What they are trying to do is take justified anger over the end of the winter fuel allowance and direct it against measures to combat climate change. It's a distraction.

The results: Derby County 3-0 Bristol City Plymouth Argyle 0-1 Stoke City Crawley Town 0-3 Barnsley Peterborough United 0-2 Wrexham Accrington Stanley 1-1 Colchester United Carlisle United 1-2 Tranmere Rovers Altrincham 1-1 Oldham Athletic Gateshead 2-1 Eastleigh --- No fewer than six of you made double figures this week - @allardyces tash got a stonking 16 points, followed by @super_ram, @Blake and @Joshua. Well done all of you! --- This is how we're shaping up overall. @liampie is now sharing top spot with @super_ram, while @allardyces tash and @Joshua join the front runners. Meanwhile, I'm lurking in the bottom half of the table and waiting for my opportunity to pounce. --- Irrespective of the internationals, we'll be back on Saturday for another round, so the fixtures will be posted on Wednesday. Thanks for playing and have a good week!

As far as I know he still is @Blake. At that level, managers typically have a day job, and training will be a couple of evenings after work. He played yesterday, so he hasn't quite finished playing altogether. They lost 7-1 though.

Brilliant. Promotion contenders find a way to win even when things don't quite go to plan. Last season we didn't win many of those "smash and grab" points because we were just too easy to score against. I only saw the end of the game but a win is a win!

I can't read and I can't write but I can drive a tractor! In their defence, it seems to just be on the packaging, which they can't really do anything about. It's not as cringey as having the wrong foundation year on the scarf! I've got one of those myself, I should check it...

Now manager of Clifton All-Whites in the UCL (who are disappointingly playing in blue today). He appears to have hung up his boots.

And now the winning predictions: Derby County 1-1 Bristol City Plymouth Argyle 1-1 Stoke City Crawley Town 1-2 Barnsley Peterborough United 2-2 Wrexham Accrington Stanley 0-2 Colchester United Carlisle United 0-2 Tranmere Rovers Altrincham 0-2 Oldham Athletic Gateshead 2-0 Eastleigh (joker)

Not an exciting signing if I'm being honest, seems a bit like a last-minute signing due to us missing out on other targets. That said, he seems to be versatile, which is good as we'd probably struggle to accommodate another out-and-out striker with the system we play. As for his past, he lost his temper outside a nightclub and was deservedly punished for it. He's not the first Notts player to be involved in something like that and probably won't be the last. If he had a conviction for domestic violence that would say a lot more about his character. And if he does turn out to be a bad influence, it's a loan and not a permanent transfer.
