Attention Predictors!

I require your attention please.

On Friday, after the last group stage match is played, I will send out XL sheets with details of all the 2nd round matches ( 8 games ).

I require the xl sheets to be sent back to me before the kick off of the first 2nd round match, Saturday 1600 GMT.

Please predict all of these matches, if you have not predicted them all , you will receive 0 points for that fixture. I will do my best to remind all of you, but ultimately the responsibility lies with the predictors. If you have any points to raise between now and then please do so on this thread or by PM.

After the 2nd round matches are complete I will send out more xl sheets for the 4 QF matches. There will be a similar post to this at that time.

just to clear this up - I predicted scores for every game at the outset. will they still count? or do I have to decide new scores after each round?

there'll be a few surprise teams going through and I suppose I should adjust some scores but tbh, if I can, I'd probably just leave them and see what happens.

Hi G4S , you can redo the scores or leave them , up to you!

ok, cheers, ill decide before the deadline.

[Khun Yak]

KhunYak 67

Same same for me, I presume you fliped the first digit without intention ....97 please

[britmaveric]

Ahhh my plan is working - guess the 50quid deposit to Chon's account did work.

[OneeyedJohn]

I bet that everyone is making more points on Groups A-D

than Groups E- H, 'kin arabs so unpredictable

You forgot to count the times when one was da Fly

[Nongwahyay]

Yeah......I (not forgetting the wife, who made the best predictions.....) was spot on with the results for both Portugal-Mexico and Iran-Angola ................. and if Chonbot has finally sobered up, I should have way outstripped some of the experts on the new results spread.........!!!!!!

..............I´ve warmed up now though............so watch your backside......

[chonabot]

Well , a few of you got max points for the first 2 games ( 17 ) , nice.

Croc's lead has narrowed somewhat, he forgot the predictions for the Ivory Coast game , but today he realised and put them in ............

I've been doing this manually , apart from a sort feature, due to me losing the original spreadsheet with the calculation macro. So tomorrow I will spend an hour going through everyones scores to re-check any anomalies.

[Nongwahyay]

Croc's lead has narrowed somewhat, he forgot the predictions for the Ivory Coast game , but today he realised and put them in ............

Now would be the ideal opportunity to show him the red card and disqualify him from the competition.............it´s just not decent to have so many points..........

[the scouser]

I'd like to report plagiarism of my predictions. No matter what I do, JackR steadfastly remains 1 point in front of me.

Go on, sort 'im out, Chon.

Scouse.

Few more matches and I'll be ahead of you Scouse!!!!

[chonabot]

Alright chaps! What a contrast! The first 2 matches produced more correct predictions than seen before in this compo, the second 2 produced zero correct predictions. And this proves that....err

Heres them scores on them doors, see youse tomorrow.

I will be going through everyones sheets to see if I have cocked up any more scores after todays debacle.

A very Sober and skint Chon.

I agree those last two matches were shi*e!!!! Oh well nice round 100 - could been much worse, considering how it looked just a few days ago.

[ThaiPauly]

Chon,

Has anyone else FAILED to predict one score correctly yet, or is it only me???

Darned Mexicans missing that penalty, that would have done it for me..

I am in abject depession..its impossible to get so many wrong, and half of them by 1 goal
