Just wanted to say that for a very occasional player, I thoroughly enjoyed being at DTD for the XXL on Saturday, finished about 15 places out the money but had a good run.

Also, if you are new or inexperienced at cash games (like me), give it a go.  I was fortunate enough to have a voucher that was won online which takes a bit of pressure off as it felt like I wasn't using my own cash at the tables and I had a great time.  I wanted to play longer but the table was very short handed at 3am!

Some interesting characters at the table, and a good thing to do is just listen, it can be quite funny......just wish some folk would act quicker instead of talking when it's their turn!

Hats off to DTD, keep running the satellites, so I can try in higher buy in comps or win those cash vouchers.

OK, Forest v Charlton today......

We (forest) are without our top scorer today, and our home form is patchy to say the least.  Charlton do appeal a bit today, so the DNB option looks ok to me at 31/10 with 888 or 3/1 elsewhere.

Just can't see us winning this 2 or 3 nil at all.

Recommend £20 @ 31/10 Charlton DNB.

Same reply, apols.

Not a problem.........mini sweat was on with Charlton leading for quite a while.

Off to DTD for the XXL in a bit, have a great weekend guys.

Most likely will come down for this tonight, have not been in ages due to work etc, looking forward to it.

On a side note, I've still got one of those £125 tokens which I can't seem to use (thin).  Can it be used to play £1/£1 cash tonight if I bust out?

Just watched it, really good documentary.

Oh how the other half live!

I must be missing something here.  I was genuinely surprised to see Luton at 5/6 to beat Mansfield.

I expected them to be something like 1/2 when I picked up my coupon this morning.  Mansfield are not good this season.

Obviously the bookies know something I don't, but would reccommend a cheeky £20 on Luton to win.

Great stuff, I love playing the sats, this is great value.

Now, time to bink one.

0 - 0 for me.

Nobody wants to get injured, nobody wants to lose, few risks.

Am also on the unders.

(Cue a 2 - 2 thriller)

Seems the Scots are up for it, I really don't give a shit TBH, stopped being interested in England matches several years ago.

Isn't the fight on in Liverpool?  Bellew's home turf?

You know how it is with judges in boxing.  You have to beat your opponent and 3 judges to get a result away from home, factor that in to the price.

I have one of those £125 token but can't make it for a couple of weeks at least......what can I use it for, never been lucky enough to win one.

Sure I read somewhere you can use it on the cash tables, or did I dream that one?

End of battle of the planets, rake increases etc.

Probably a good strategy by Stars to get all their bad news out in quick succession.

Seems to have been well-received on 2+2, then?

Yes, they seem to be going nuts over there.

I'm not particularly up to date on current events, but I guess the other sites are rubbing their hands at a potential player exodus from Stars?

Not looking good for you.....so wanted you guys to have a real sweat.

Seeing as immigration is being raised, I'll just give you my 2p worth.

I work for a large national company as a shift manager of about 120 people on shift.  We use an agency to supply a lot of our workforce, and of the 75 on the register, only 6 have an english name......

Now, there are a lot of good people on that list, a few I would class as a friend, but I think it is too much, and I'm sure it is like this all over the country.  Personally, I'd like to see a huge reduction, and I wonder where all the local lads are working as it's not minimum wage, and it is an ok place to work.

I don't think these comments are out of order, I just want to see it reduced because this massive national influx of foreign workers must take it's toll on public services, and, it will make my job easier if more locals had jobs.

The reality for me is politics is a load of shite where nothing changes.  UKIP will get bigger/stronger, but that just helps Labour doesn't it?

Am I the only one who read the new Raiders coach as being Tony Soprano?!

Nope, I did the same. 

Raiders really do need to sort their mess out.  Was painful watching them at Wembley, we could not defend the pass at any point.

Nottingham born, and living just down the road all my life, dad and cousins all Forest fans and I went to my first game aged about 12.  We played Everton in the League Cup and won 1 - 0 with a Lee Chapman goal.

It just felt right to follow Forest, as I remember all the fuss and excitement growing up.  No other team/badge/colours/players gripped me as Forest was in the blood.  I had all the usual stories from family growing up, about away days both home and abroad, and let's not forget, we were actually quite good in the late 70's and early 90's.

I took my 5 year old lad with me for his first game against Reading the other week and we won 4 - 0 (I was delighted as I hope it clinches it for him).  He seemed to enjoy it but it's early days.  I won't be forcing any team on him, but I'll do my bit to encourage him to do the right thing if he indeed does like football.

I'm very much of a "support your local team or where you were born type person".  It counts for nothing as you can follow who you like, but anything other just seems alien to me.

And as for all the Man U/Liverscum/Chelsea fans around here.....pfffft
