The All New World Cup 2014 Sweepstake

[Steve]

If BM wins we all get a free holiday to Cyprus to celebrate....that was the prize wasn't it ? 

That's what he promised

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

 

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

[Steve]

Sweepstake draw round 1

First choice selections were

	1
Miss D:	Spain
Baldy:	Germany
Steve:	Argentina
Apey:	Brazil
Barman:	Brazil (wh)
Uncle:	Brazil
Miss T:	Greece
Boogs:	Spain

            

So Baldy, Misty and I have unique selections and get respectively Germany, Greece and the Argies 

Miss D and Boogs are fighting over Spain and Apey, Barman and Uncle are fighting over Brazil.

The randomometer will now how to decide.  The toss of the magic coin comes next

[Steve]

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

So Barman wants Belgium

No duplicates so that's what they get!    The randomometer is back in the cupboard

[Barman]

Is there a swingometer...? 

[Uncle Mort]

France ~ my dark horse selection. 

I shall stick a couple of quid on them.

[Barman]

Plucky little Belgium - 20/1 

[Steve]

France ~ my dark horse selection. 

I shall stick a couple of quid on them.

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:

[Baldy]

Steve is Sepp Blatter and I claim my fiver. 

[Steve]

Steve is Sepp Blatter and I claim my fiver. 

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 

	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
