Bamboo- will we see a sponsored post containing predictions from your partner internet betting provider?
If you mean Unibet...of course not. I got the £50 free bet and the other free bets that happened to be there and once my 3 doubles over an evening, I slopped it all on another basketball O/U points. For £25 outlay, I think I profited at about £430. That'll do. Left £130 in to play with and the rest has made its way to my bank.

Haha! Good old imponderables has made its season debut😂😂😂
I would say there are 5 very obvious imponderables to consider at the outset..... 1. Will playing BCD negate the traditional concept of home advantage? 2. Will players who have had a muich longer break than normal, be reinvigorated? Or will near on 6 months off mean they're rusty or worse? 3. Will Wellens have found a cure for the Saturday/Tuesday malaise which has dogged us since PdC? Given there are a dozen such events, it matters. 4. The wage cap.... how will that affect the other clubs in Div 3, may possibly work to our advantage, but can you see the big hitters sticking to it 5. Ownership of the club.... court case as yet unresolved. I would put these 5 in the mix with the usual concerns about squad size and quality

The suggestion appears to be that, in previous years, one could predict the outcome of the season with absolute certainty but Covid 19 has blown that out of the water. I am not entirely sure that is the case.
Leaving the "imponderables" (many of which apply to all clubs, not just STFC) to one side, it occurs to me that you can express an opinion on how each club might fare on what you do know about them.

We'll smash the proverbial excrement out of this league, no matter how many imponderables stand in our way...
Oooh that could be another film in the "Expendables" franchise...
Coming soon, Winter 2020...The...Imponderables!

I hope we do well and win games next season because Reg will hopefully post less If we’re winning.

The only trouble is...it means I'll post more (I hear blood curdling screams of "is that possible"). Swings and roundabouts I guess

Just listened to this - well reasoned, Town upper mid-table is about right. However, I seem to have a fault with my iPad. Whichever way up I hold it they seem to think the three-siders are good for promotion. I think I’m going to have to get it repaired. Shit, just what I need.
