I certainly never suggested there was a rule not allowing you to change once you'd made your selection John, other than the rule which states you cannot change after the deadline date.

My reply was to @snapdragon P24, post 125870, who requested to change way after the 1 hour before kick off deadline rule. I haven't seen a rule regarding a change of team selection being permitted or disallowed before the deadline time.

I've finally got to the bottom of this:

See post number 84153 in the thread "English Premier League 2021-22" posted Oct 15. Rule 3.

These were rules I copied from another site as an example. It is fair to say that @BigHewernever formally adopted these. Also that he and I had an exchange of PM's where he was concerned about making my role as easy as possible. I now realise that I had conflated that post with his good intentions and had mistakenly thought that there was such a rule. In turn, I thought your intervention regarding @snapdragon was based on your knowledge of that rule that I now concede was never adopted.

Apologies to all concerned. I am happy to have cleared this up, especially as I was concerned that other posters might wonder how I made this mistake, and might it have been something I made up myself?

Just a message to all posters regarding if I am slow replying to your picks. In the event I fail to notice your selections, it has been agreed by @BigHewerand myself, as long as these are made before the 1 hour cut off, they will still be valid even if entered by myself after that time.

As long as the time stamp on a selection is before the cut-off time, it will be deemed valid. In the event that I make a default selection on your behalf because I have missed your post, that will be amended when I am notified and can validate this.

I know there will be those who will think this foolproof, but clearly you have yet to meet me (hahaha).

Thanks to @BigHewerfor advising me of a couple of errors I made. My apologies to those concerned. I have been distracted trying to arrange my trip to TH, and thanks to various reasons, but especially the incompetence of my intended hotel, it now looks doubtful that I will obtain my Thai Pass in time.

Amended table is attached with picks from BH and @King Cotton

TYVM: I had massive problems arranging my previous trip to Colombia, and this has been twice as bad.

Man Utd for game week 20 please John.

See you at Turf Moor, maybe, @Faz . . . just a few miles from my home town and has already had a fair dollop of snow 🏂!

My apologies for sending out reminders so quickly, but as the next cut-off time is just over 24 hours, I don't want to see anyone disadvantaged. 

Anyway: Some good news, @BigHewerhas agreed to double my present salary for working over Xmas and New Year.

@spicy_girl @Andrew Reeve @Slacker77 @Benroon @Chaimai@Marble-eye @snapdragon @Dedinbed @Lowseasonlover@Sateeb

Please note, both Lowseasonlover and Sateeb have yet to make anything other than default selections. As discussed with @BigHewershould they not make a pick this week, we will presume that they do not want to take part and they will be deleted.

My home is in Bacup.

Silly me. I just got it into my head that Utd were away.

And you a Bacup boy, eh? That town holds mixed memories . . . but mostly good ones!

@ John:GW 20 will be Man U for me please 

I think I made a cock-up in putting you on the list of those I was waiting to hear from. Your last pick was Wet Sham, who lost on Boxing Day. Not one for VAR I think? Apologies for the false hope I gave you.

@Andrew Reeve @Sateeband @Lowseasonlover were also mistakenly informed by me that they were still in the game. Of course, if the brown envelopes had been forthcoming...
