Yes, there are a few more people who may want to join in yet.
I'll put the names into a bowl and draw out teams until the names are gone and then put all the names back in again. Some people will end up with two teams and the rest with one.

That's 21 and there's 32 teams available. Hopefully we can get some more people but I'll probably do the draw sometime in May just before the World Cup starts.

Denmark & Slovenia eh? I'm tempted to put a bet on them both finishing bottom of their respective groups (although The Danes might just sneak into the knock-out stage)!

Thanks for sorting the Sweep' though Wardy. I'm starting to really look forward to the competion now: & the World Cup! :) x X

Argentina, I'll take that! I'll ignore the fact their preferred back-line consists of four CB's!

Apparently Australia were ashamed to have only beaten them 2-1 last night, which says something about their standing amongst global competition, tho I guess the Aussies are biased!

Thank you for looking after the draw Wardy, looks honest enough.:D

I was a bit aghast that I drew Cameroon or the Indomitable Lions at first but they are Africas most successful side. Group E looks tough but I can see Cameroon advancing with the Netherlands. Be sweet if by some miracle, Samuel Eto'o and company can do a repeat of 1990 and go further. Listed below are the current Cup odds for all those here respective teams. Good Luck Everyone.

4/1 Spain
9/2 Brazil
6/1 England

Shoreleaf was in a win win situation yesterday but I bet he didn't guess which one of his teams would be the winner? :lol

Ain't that the truth! What an absolute disgrace to their profession. I honestly don't think I've ever seen a bunch of so-called professional footballers 'perform' so abysmally over 90 minutes: it was truely painful. Surely they can't be any worse against Slovenia, can they??! :duh:
