Hi folks, thanks for talking part in the last couple of rounds, hopefully I can get your points done in the next few days. In the meantime, here's round 32! All matches kick off at 3pm on Saturday and you get a joker each. Blackburn Rovers v Plymouth Argyle Middlesbrough v Watford Blackpool v Mansfield Town Stevenage v Peterborough United Carlisle United v Colchester United Morecambe v Accrington Stanley Gateshead v Altrincham Woking v Tamworth

This is very disappointing news, regardless of his destination. In nearly five years at Notts, our fortunes have turned around and Montague has clearly been a major part of that. This also makes the choice of his successor a crucial one for the club. I think an appointment from within would be sensible to maintain continuity.

Burton Albion 2-1 Blackpool Huddersfield Town 2-0 Reading Barrow 1-0 Gillingham Fleetwood Town 1-1 Cheltenham Town Salford City 2-0 Tranmere Rovers (joker) Aldershot 1-1 AFC Fylde Dagenham & Redbridge 2-1 Yeovil Town Solihull Moors 1-2 Oldham Athletic

Hi everyone. Unfortunately I'm going to struggle to post your points for the next week or so (and I promise I'm not sulking because I only got one point). However, in the interim I'll keep posting the fixtures and will try to get up to date again soon. So, the fixtures. These all kick off at 3pm on Saturday, and remember your joker! Burton Albion v Blackpool Huddersfield Town v Reading Barrow v Gillingham Fleetwood Town v Cheltenham Town Salford City v Tranmere Rovers Aldershot v AFC Fylde Dagenham & Redbridge v Yeovil Town Solihull Moors v Oldham Athletic

Hull City 2-1 Stoke City Millwall 1-0 QPR Leyton Orient 2-1 Stockport County Reading 1-2 Bolton Wanderers AFC Wimbledon 1-1 Bradford City Newport County 1-1 Barrow Braintree Town 1-2 Hartlepool United (joker) Wealdstone 0-1 Solihull Moors

The results: Charlton Athletic 2-0 Bristol Rovers Lincoln City 0-2 Blackpool Peterborough United 1-0 Wigan Athletic Accrington Stanley 0-0 Cheltenham Town Chesterfield 3-0 Bromley Crewe Alexandra 1-1 AFC Wimbledon Barnet 2-0 Hartlepool United Southend United 2-0 AFC Fylde --- No fewer than six of you made double figures, with @ARLukomski and @super_ram leading the way! --- So @ARLukomski stays top by just two points. Could it be a two-horse race? --- The next round is tomorrow (Saturday) - click here to enter your predictions! See you over there...

We hit round 30 at the weekend - so we're two thirds through and things are getting serious. If you want to boost your chances of the title / the top half of the table / avoiding relegation to the Prediction League Conference B, have a go at predicting these by 3pm on Saturday, and remember your joker! Hull City v Stoke City Millwall v QPR Leyton Orient v Stockport County Reading v Bolton Wanderers AFC Wimbledon v Bradford City Newport County v Barrow Braintree Town v Hartlepool United Wealdstone v Solihull Moors

Thanks for your predictions! Unfortunately I probably won't have time to count these before Friday, so I'll lock the thread until then and post the next round.

I don't mind rumours and gossip when it's labelled as such. Even stuff that's true (such as the permanent signing) isn't really worth talking about until the ink has dried on the contract. I did have the impression that the "race" for Reindorf had been talked up by his agent, as is often the case. As for the rest - let's see what the window brings.

Roll up and get your prediction league points! Providing you don't predict them all wrong of course. Kick-off is Tuesday at 7.45pm! @ARLukomski, @Robbie, @Dan, @Megan_Elizax, @william1984, @menzinho, @liampie, @thommo, @Fan of Big Tone, @TheSkipper, @Chris, @cheeky~k8, @JustLikeJuve, @allardyces tash, @Joshua, @Blake, @DonnyNotts, @NottsTastic, @CliftonMagpie, @The Heff, @NottsLoyal, @upthepies, @OoooooTommy, @JIMBO, @Harry Buckley

I'd be happy to see him being brought on at some point tomorrow, now that he's got some games under his belt. McGoldrick and Jatta need a rest sometimes and the new additions aren't out-and-out strikers.

We have a few historic links with Eastwood Town @Fan of Big Tone. Their ground is also one I've visited and as far as I'm aware the new club play there too. The UCL Premier Division is just one level lower than the Northern Premier League, where the old club could usually be found. Fun fact while we're in anorak mode: Macclesfield Town were themselves a phoenix club, replacing the original club that was wound up in 1897. That's why their badge says "since 1874" and not "founded 1874".

Charlton Athletic 2-0 Bristol Rovers Lincoln City 1-1 Blackpool Peterborough United 1-2 Wigan Athletic Accrington Stanley 2-1 Cheltenham Town Chesterfield 1-1 Bromley Crewe Alexandra 2-2 AFC Wimbledon Barnet 2-1 Hartlepool United (joker) Southend United 2-0 AFC Fylde

Mality Mality Mality Mality... That's the formalities out of the way.

The scores: Bristol City 2-1 Blackburn Rovers Cardiff City 2-1 Derby County Exeter City 1-3 Blackpool Leyton Orient 2-0 Reading Chesterfield 1-1 Port Vale Tranmere Rovers 1-1 Gillingham Aldershot Town 2-2 Tamworth AFC Fylde 2-0 Wealdstone --- @ARLukomski and @4everapie knocked it out of the park this round with impressive scores! --- Looking at our league table, @ARLukomski has wiped out @super_ram's seemingly comfortable ten-point lead to take top spot! @4everapie jumps into the top five, while @Fan of Big Tone is now in the top half of the table. --- But don't get too used to that table - round 29 is coming up on Tuesday night and the fixtures are online now! Go on, give it your best shot. Thanks for playing!

Thanks for this update @Robbie! I'm always interested in how some of the familiar names are doing. I've been to Nuneaton's old Manor Ground before, it was a proper traditional non-league ground too. They moved to Liberty Way in 2008, but the future of that stadium is up in the air. They're currently groundsharing with Bedworth United a few miles away. They're going well, but the tenth tier is very modest for a club like that. The NLN table is incredibly tight, and Darlo, Chester, Scunny and Hereford are all in with a chance of playing in the National League next season. Just out of the screenshot are Scarborough Athletic in 15th. One tier further down, in the Norther Premier League, Macclesfield are currently 16 points clear and looking all set to return to the NLN next season. With Boston and Aldershot in relegation trouble, it's possible that there will be nine former league clubs (or phoenix clubs thereof) in next year's NLN...

And now we can round off January with a midweek round. These all kick off at 7.45pm on Tuesday evening, don't forget your jokers and good luck! Charlton Athletic v Bristol Rovers Lincoln City v Blackpool Peterborough United v Wigan Athletic Accrington Stanley v Cheltenham Town Chesterfield v Bromley Crewe Alexandra v AFC Wimbledon Barnet v Hartlepool United Southend United v AFC Fylde

How frustrating. I thought we played some really nice football in the first half in particular. It was a thoroughly enjoyable watch until I remembered we weren't winning! Mark Stallard was spot on though, there wasn't quite enough end product and we didn't finish Bromley off when we had the chance. Two points dropped. On a different note, while I hope Palmer is back very soon, I think Hinchey did a very good job of filling in for him and very nearly had an assist to his name.

I'll add up the points for this round tomorrow. As we've got a midweek round coming up, I'll post the fixtures for that already!

I noticed that, missing from the squad. I still wouldn't get excited, but it's curious...

Bristol City 1-1 Blackburn Rovers Cardiff City 2-1 Derby County Exeter City 1-1 Blackpool Leyton Orient 2-1 Reading Chesterfield 0-2 Port Vale (joker) Tranmere Rovers 2-1 Gillingham Aldershot 1-0 Tamworth AFC Fylde 0-2 Wealdstone

Right boys and girls, you know what to do - 3pm Saturday is kick-off time and you get a joker each. Good luck! Bristol City v Blackburn Rovers Cardiff City v Derby County Exeter City v Blackpool Leyton Orient v Reading Chesterfield v Port Vale Tranmere Rovers v Gillingham Aldershot v Tamworth AFC Fylde v Wealdstone

I can't see it being Langstaff as he's still starting games for Millwall. Etete could be a really good shout though! I doubt Paul Mace is close to the current hierarchy, but he's well connected in the world of football - perhaps he's heard it from an agent? I think it's obvious we're in the market for a striker. But just because there's talk, that doesn't mean it will come to pass.
