Defenders: +2 for clean sheet, -1 for goals against, +5 for goal scored

Midfielders: +4 points for goals scored

Strikers: +3 points for goals scored

Managers: +5 points for a win, +2 points for a draw, -2 points for a loss

Low scores all round! I'm used to the sportal system but I'll give it a shot.
That looks pretty lame, can't believe there isn't one decent World Cup fantasy competition out there, so someone hurry up and find it.

Nobby Stiless Dentures is in.

NB: I did have an apostrophe in Stiles's but the bloody site took it off. Hey-ho.

Looking at the three teams entered so far we all have Birchall from T&T! My team has a distinct "players what have played in Britain & I've actually heard of" bias....

Think birchell is the token 'He's bound to get points for playing at least' pick, and he doesnt lose out for Trinidads shocking defence

Don't mention the war is in.

Isaksson

Carvalho Gallas Young-Pyo

Chedli Schweinsteiger Karimi Ballack Radomski

A.Delgado Klose

Manager: Advocaat

I had a bit of trouble with the last two mids. Karimi will definitely play for Iran, I'll have to do a bit more research to make sure the other two do as well.
