Finally, some common sense! Nah man, very well done. Probably the biggest win I've seen on here.

In. Probably Not Maybe.

Hope you lads are covering the draw btw.

Fingers crossed Jonny. And Sewelly, just I doubt it's worth £900.

Nice one Jonny. Had most the same and still lost. Re-invest.

For having a good defence, you must apparently have a good goalkeeper and defenders.

A Nigerian keeper has never found a teammate with a long kick? Eh?

What the fuck is this? Dramatic music.

It was too late.

You absolute bastard Well it's already becoming apparent that the 4 in bold are going to win.

Won't be an easy ride but I expect us to win. 2-1.

You can guess how Tromso are doing.

It's alright, we'll get to see more of Kuyt.

Just watching Ghana at the moment and it's quite worrying for them how much they're going to miss Essien. Athletically yes, they'll break with pace, but they have no control in midfield, no-one to spray the passes and take grip of a game. Edit: just had a pretty clear goal not given like. Easily over the line.

Slovakia Betis Serbia DNB Algeria DNB Tromso DNB Romania DNB are the ones to stay away from, folks.

Get off that horse right now.

Tromso are away to Stromsgodset. 13/8. Tromso are top, in good form, Stromsgodset are 11th and have lost their last 4. What's the catch?

That's my picks like. 3 changes from yours. I'm excited by the prospect of Chile, but I'm not convinced how their tactics are gonna go down with their group. Their lack of a plan B/C could bite them in the arse, and while Bielsa should be commended for his commitment to 'good' football, I reckon Hitzfeld will grind the Swiss through that group. France will pull it together in the end imo, atleast through the group stages. All the groups seem really intriguing tbh, I can't wait for it to start. Yeah, Chile are probably the team I'm most intrigued by. Hitzfeld's experience could be crucial ultimately. Group B is pretty hard to predict: Argies and then take your pick, I can't see much difference in quality between the other 3. Didn't know about Mikel getting injured, though. Greece look pretty shit atm so South Korea could indeed sneak it, possibly on goal difference/head to head.

I reckon: A: Uruguay and Mexico B: Argentina and Nigeria C: England and USA D: Germany and Serbia E: Holland and Denmark F: Italy and Paraguay G: Brazil and Portugal H: Spain and Chile ...although there'll probably be a shock. Even South Africa have a chance - home support could take that poor group of players through.

Also, the more I think about it, the more I think France won't make it out of their group.

Pretty bold shout that, Gash. Germany won't go out early but can't see them getting to the final.

I nar. Just saying how it came across. Right, might put a couple of zany WC bets on.

Does that mean... you're only posting winning bets!? You'll be shot at dawn on here.

Don't think they're excellent at all tbh. Holland are 10/1 and RVP is 14/1. I know they're linked but 66/1 doesn't strike me as good value. Not that I don't think they have a good chance. RVP as top scorer is generally a good shout - he shouldn't be short of service, either.
