What does the last on the list get at the end of the tournament??? Is it worth my while hanging on to my position???

I am wrapping the wooden spoon as I type..........

Kurgen informed me he'll arrange smth for you at Jenny's.

It's a matter of distinction, N - but you will have to fight me for it!

[Nongwahyay]

Wooden spoons......knees-up at Jenny´s.......... it´s all very tempting....but on the other hand I think I´ll re-submit my score sheet for the next games... as of tomorrow. My "close-both-eyes- and-stick-a-pin-in-it" method doesn´t seem to be paying off................................. Can I do that, Chonabot????? (I promise not to change the results of the already played games.....honest....)

[Backpack_thailand]

Jeez, I'm having a shocker!

Let's hope tonight I can put in a bit of a performance:

SOUTH KOREA 2-0 TOGO

FRANCE 1-0 SWITZERLAND

BRAZIL 2-0 CROATIA

Sorry Backpack , I specifically stated earlier that anyone caught disclosing their predictions prior to a game would be docked 22 points.

Wasn't me Guv...!

Come On Brazil...!!!

No worries just send them in !

A poor scoring afternoon/evening for most of us , Jack and Croc are stretching the lead somewhat, with Spit climbing up the ranks.

On the whole though it's still a very close contest with a lot of games left to play, not even a quarter of the way through yet gents!

Todays games

Spain v Ukraine, 14:00(GMT)

Tunisia v Saudi Arabia, 17:00(GMT)

Germany v Poland, 20:00 ( GMT)

I'm hoping for at least one 100% prediction today as I have drawn a blank so far......

Tunisia v Saudi should be interseting , 2 muslim countries battling it out.

Spain vs Ukraine also a quality tie , but the Germany vs Poland , for me, is the match of the day.

Poland have never beaten Germany, and there is no love lost there.

Good luck Predictors!!! ( except Croc and Jack....... )

[Totster]

Spain v Ukraine 2-1

Tunisia v Saudi Arabia 1-1

Germany v Poland 1-0

[jackr]

Good luck Predictors!!! ( except Croc and Jack....... )

Oh aye

Managed all three results yesterday, as most did I expect, but just off on the scores, ie 2:0 SK/Toga, 1:1 Frog/Swiss etc Hoping for a 3/3 tonight .

7.TomYumGoong – 34

Cool, battling relegation to fighting for a uefa cup spot, all in the space of 24 hours.

I won't be quitting my day job just yet though.

Chaps , just to let you know, I will be updating the spreadsheet at the end of todays play, instead of after each game.

Watch this space........

[Nongwahyay]

Just wanted to say a big word of thanks and appreciation to Chonabot for investing so much of your time in keeping us all up-to-date with the points table................. and I don´t care what everyone else is calling you behind your back (no...just a little joke...), you´re doing a great job (although it´s about time you learned to evaluate what I MEANT to predict and not be put off by what I actually wrote.............would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!).

Cheers Fella , it's a pleasure .

ps I evaluate that you meant to predict 0 - 0 's for the remainder of the tourney.

I seem to be having the same problem with Chonabot . . .

[Nongwahyay]

Just a word of warning to everybody that - with it still standing at an unbelievable 0-0 with 82 minutes gone in the Germany-Poland game - I´ve submitted my new and improved revised predictions for the rest of the qualifying games. So sit back and watch me rocket up the league as of tomorrow..............

[Nongwahyay]

I´m glad I didn´t go down to the "fan mile" at the Brandenburg Gate here in Berlin..... they stopped any more people going in after the 250.000th person had entered................and with Germany just having scored in the 91st minute all hel_l will be let loose there now.....!!!!!!!!!

[chonabot]

Well sports fans , the end of another day , some good , some cr@p games frankly.

Special mention goes out to Scouse who rocketed up to 3rd in the table, also nice predicting from MrBojangles who scored a whopping 10 points for the Tunisia v Saudi match , nice!

A long way to go , but the two old guys at the top are starting to look like they may have seen a few world cups in their time? Will Scouse catch them? Will Sing_Sling and Nongwahyay join forces and aim for mid-table? Will Brit score more than 2 points tomorrow?
