If BM wins we all get a free holiday to Cyprus to celebrate....that was the prize wasn't it ?  rubschin:
That's what he promised

When I've won, Smugland holiday and free booze for all at my expense Party001:
whistle:

 Shocked:
Luckily we have a last minute option for you to have Iran as your 1st choice

(for a bribe)


I figure that I'm going to have the fate of all sweepstake drawers to be unpopular come 10.15 so I want someone else in the stocks with me getting all the rotten fruit
Well, whatever, nevermind

The magic 5p coin has come up heads so lowest seconds counts get priority in round 1!

Barman's Belgium are a big worry if the rather awesome Kompany can hold them together (someone translate that for BM)

No one got England!

But then as the Eye put it:

I really hope it all made sense.  Did me besterest to make sure most got a team they actually wanted and the random part was as transparent as postible

This is the marked up selection table, I now have to sort out the lists of who has which teams as priority substitutes if/when their current team is knocked out.  There's a fair chance Misty will end up with Italy  rubschin:

      1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   
   Miss D:   Spain   Germany[/sd]   USA   Columbia   Russia    Brazil   Argentina   Ghana   
   Baldy:   Germany   Spain   Brasil   Argentina   Holland   Italy   England   Portugal   
   Steve:   Argentina   Germany   Spain   Holland   Brazil   Uruguay   Belgium (wh)   Colombia,  (wh)   
   Apey:   Brazil   England   Argentina (wh)   Germany (wh) [/sd]   Spain (wh)   Belgium (wh)   Colombia,  (wh)   France (wh)   
   Barman:   Brazil (wh)   Argentina (wh)   Germany (wh)   Spain (wh)   Belgium (wh)   Colombia,  (wh)   England (wh)   France (wh)   
   Uncle:   Brazil   Argentina   France   Italy   Portugal   Spain   Belgium    Colombia
