EURO2008 Prediction League

[Tigranes]

Bievennue et Gonnichiwa to the Euro 2008 Prediction League.

 

The main activity involves ,predicting the outcome of each game, including scores. A correct <i>result</i> nets you 1 point. A correct score (and thus result) nets you 3 points. The man with the biggest, uh, score, will win the game. Prizes may or may not be included in the package.

 

We have missed the first round of the group stage, but at least we all start on an even footing. I know everybody will pick Villa for Top Scorer now, but I think that's okay, again, that's your prerogative.

I don't think we've enabled HTML on these boards, so I might just do a simple list, or even do a table in word and copy it in. Not a big deal, we're not going for flashy. That will happen after tonight's games.

 

My predictions:

 

Portugal [2] v Czech Rep [0]

Switzerland [0] v Turkey [1]

 

Italy [2] v Romania [0]

Holland [1] v France [0]

 

Croatia [0] v Germany [2]

Austria [1] v Poland [2]

 

Sweden [1] v Spain [3]

Greece [0] v Russia [0]

 

Remember that you can only predict until kickoff: if you miss tonight's kickoff you can still predict other games in the round.

Never mind.

 

I was going to try and ginks you guys but "I have a feeling you're going to do well" was the only idea I could think of, which would only cover one of you guys.

You're a fool if you think Croatia will beat Germany. Jackass.

[Tigranes]

Stranger things have happened.

 

Well, the Czech have scored, so my score is already out.

[Tigranes]

Well done Hildegard, 3 points in the bag as Portugal qualifies for Quarts.

 

Just realised I didn't follow my own format, d'oh.

[Hildegard]

Thanks

 

In the lead currently but many more matches to be played

[Hildegard]

You're a fool if you think Croatia will beat Germany. Jackass.

 

That's the same thing they said in the WC 98

[Gorgon]

I don't see any tomatoes, this is a hoax.

[Tigranes]

First update, Hildegaard now leads with 3 points. See first page for table.

 

We don't have HTML here or anything, so I was forced to.... screenshot a Word table. gah.

 

ed: Yes Gorgon, sum Nigerians are taking ur monii as we speak

[Guest The Architect]

Lol 0pts for me so far. Yeah great ****in' start. But we all know just how well I go with predictions.

It's okay for me to change my Croatia-Germany score prediction from "0-1" to "1-2", isn't it? So long as it's before kick off, right?

 

If so, by God I'll be kicking myself if Germany win 1-0.

[Tigranes]

That's fine Architect.

 

Well, well, Croatia ahead in the break. Who'd have thought.

 

I still maintain that Jansen is the worst player in the German lineup, and Ballack is just useless this tournament (as he has been for Chelsea most of the last 2 years, though...)

[Morgoth]

Unbelievable. Croatia leads with 2:0 against Germany!

 

Later, the Loser vs. Loser match will commence. Austria vs. Poland. Who will lose?

[Pidesco]

Unless Germany completely fails to qualify, this is really bad news to Portugal.

[Tigranes]

Surely they will beat Austria?

 

Croatia completely outplayed them. Lahm kept crossing to the spectators, Gomez and Jansen are as useless as they've always been, and I was surprised at how the rest of the defence was so disorganised. It didn't help that Ballack was absolute crap at everything he did. With Schweinsteiger sent off, only Podolski remains as their real attacking threat.

 

I believe Accept picks up a cool 3 points and leaves the rest of us with 0. How about that.

[Pidesco]

I believe they will beat Austria. But if they do, they'll be in second place which would mean that Portugal would face them in the quarters. Disaster!
