small feedback ed001, i absolutely love the editors predictions table and hope it is there to stay for seasons moving forward too. bt i sure do hope to see you in there but with your superstitions, probably won't happen.

its not a big deal bt its the little things you know.

{Ed001's Note - the predictions table will continue but I won't be doing match previews after this season, they take up too much time. I will not be getting involved in the predictions either. Bad luck. Surely you would rather not jinx us?}

Maybe MK could do the previews. Only an idea 👍🏻.

{Ed001's Note - one of the posters has already said he would do them, a guy who works for Opta, but I am happy to have more than one to read, just so long as I don't have to do them! They take up so much time, especially at this time of year when you end up doing them almost every day.}

Longthing, Reid the Red is going to do them next year. He is a fantastic poster so I for one look forward to them.

I will continue to do the Liverpool previews for Champions League games. Maybe I will have time to do FA cup and League cup games too.

Must take ages to write them all, don't blame you for stopping it Ed mate, least you'll have more time for other things. Bet you can't wait till the end of the season so your done with them haha! Thank you for doing them all this time though, I have enjoyed them every time. Looking forward to reading opta guys work.

{Ed001's Note - they do take a long time. The hardest bit is coming up with something new to save about each time for every single team. One game can often change so little that you are scratching around for anything to talk about. The worst thing is that it takes over a Friday which means I never get to spend time with friends as that is their day off. Anyway means I can spend more time on other articles, they set me back so much I could do a lot more of them without having to put them aside to do the previews. Like this week, there has been a game every day, so I couldn't just get stuck into the Tyson article I have been doing and get it done. I would prefer to put more time into those than the previews to be honest. Finally start clearing the backlog off my to do list!}

That to do list must be a mile or 10 long mate lol I don't think anybody would blame you if you stopped doing the previews even now. Your best leaving it alone especially if it's getting in the way of you seeing friends mate, it's not worth it. I know the feeling though, working far too much recently and I'm not feeling good for it one bit so I'm considering my options, time for change I think lol.

I can't wait for the Tyson article, he's another one with so much to write about, by far my all time favourite boxer, I loved him. Have you read his autobiography ' Undisputed truth: My Autobiography'? if not let me know and I'll send you it if you want.

{Ed001's Note - when you live to work it is time for a change mate!

I haven't read that autobiography no, I have read a number of biographies on him in the past, but not his autobiography. Ed0333 keeps wittering on about it, so I am guessing it is a good read? At least it will not be sanitised unlike so many other autobiographies, Tyson is nothing if not open about a lot of details of his life.}

If there is opportunity to change things for the better then change. Life’s too short not to.

Thank you to all the Eds for the time you invest in this site. That is all. 😄.

Yes I'm happy to do the previews as of next season! I'll try keep them as interesting as I can, I'm just happy to give a little back to all the hard work the Eds have put into the site over the many years. Ed001 deserves a bit of a break!

Surely there's better players to do reviews of than Nathan Tyson ed?

{Ed001's Note - he is one of Salah's favourites though mate. Whatever Mo Mo wants, Mo Mo gets if it keeps him happy, scoring goals and staying at Liverpool!}

Hi Ed, I can understand why such a pain but the previews even if only for the Liverpool game are brilliant. Drop all the other matches but please keep them up for us and maybe the odd critical match for our title/ top 4 rivals?

Really appreciate everything you do for the site, it’s the only reliable source of meaningful insightful non-public information IMO.

{Ed001's Note - I was going to just do the reviews. I will see how it goes though over the course of the season.}

nathan ake has no chance to play in the world cup Ed001.he has already been capped by the Netherlands.

{Ed001's Note - oh bollox I forgot they didn't qualify when I was writing it. I was running out of ideas and just tried to pick any international but forgot to consider whether or not that country had qualified. My apologies. That was a silly error.}

no need to apologize Ed001. it happens sometimes. one can't remember everything. :)

{Ed001's Note - I am still disappointed in myself, that is basics I forgot.}

Ed001 Quick question, If Alonso gets the 3 game ban, seeing as it is so close to the Burnley game does the ban count for Burnley? Or is that too soon which will mean he will miss the Liverpool game? I understand there next 4 Fixtures are Burnley, Southampton, Swansea and LFC. Hopefully misses the LFC game.

{Ed001's Note - depends on what he does. If he contests the charge then there will need to be a hearing. If he does not contest it, then his ban will start straight away.}

Id prefer Reid the Red to do all the previews.
