SD FIFA World Cup 2002 prediction game!!

Engerland will win.

Funny, almost everybody guessed that Argentina would beat Nigeria, but not one person could guess the score right.

1 - 0 - I believe we all found that score too colorless to put on the sheet!!

And I was almost getting my first correct score, if only Tavarelli didn’t cause the penalty on the last minute!

RSA 2 Paraguay 2 …duh!!

So are the running scores available anywhere?

Thanks for the link, Watermelon Man, but I meant our scores rather than theirs.

I will have the scores updated on Tuesday, when I will be in the office again and in a position to run all the calculations.

Tuesday? Bwa ha ha ha. I love the monarchy for as long as we get extra bank holidays…

Any family that has Ozzy Osbourne in their back garden singing ‘Paranoid’ is alright in my book. Looking surreally forward to tomorrow’s gig at the Palace !

You’re going? Alright for some. Well, maybe. The list of performers fills me with dread.

Oh no, not going. Presuming I’ll be able to enjoy the parts that look okay via the BBC and the remote control. Yep, definitely some dodgy acts and lots of mincy genuflecting (Hi Elton !). I think it might be fun, though.

Also looking forward to the greasy, leathered bikers in the procession up the mall. It’s getting weird…
“Oh look Philip ! Chaps on motorcycles”

Glass onion leading by a point from S. Mussenberger, and two from Ruadh.

Woolly props up the table. Even Coldy managed to get 2 points!

And for everyone who laughed at Mullinator, he was closest to Germany’s result!

Tommorow, I shall be mostly working.

Hey. Where am I? By my reckoning I have 6 points.

Correct Crusoe, you do have 6, I gust forgot to add you in!! :smiley:

Could someone start a new thread for the second round predictions?

Cheers.

First half score: Brazil 0 - Turkey 1!!!1

Wowwwwwwwww!!

Are we cool or what!!!

:frowning:

We lost 2 - 1, but the team is strong enough to make it to the quarter finals.

And I am fuming about the referee’s decisions. THe penalty kick was not correct, our free kick in the last minute should have been repeated, and Rivaldo deserved a red card because of his last second act that aimed deceiving the referee. THe addest part is, he actually {b]managed** to deceive the referee.

:wally

I thought they were supposed to be getting tough with cheating and diving. The referee’s assistant was right behind Rivaldo - so surely he could see what was going on.

I have nothing against Hakan Unsal’s second yellow card for kicking the ball hard towards Rivaldo. It was nothing but lack of maturity. However, Rivaldo’s throwing himself on the ground and covering his face because of a ball that hit him on the hip definitely deserved some serious punishment, as well.

Note to Gabby Yorath: 14 million people is not 87% of Britain’s population - not even England’s - so stop puffing up ITV’s coverage of England / Sweden.

2 points for me already, woohooo. :slight_smile:

I’ll make up for it later, don’t worry. The least I can do is win this here league, what with my country not even IN the bloody tournament and all…

L_C, d’you reckon Ozzy tried to burn down the palace?

Huh? Fire. SHAROOOOON!!!

:D…and he’d only just finished rehearsing/sound checking as the fire caught hold.
