Euro 2008 Tipping Comp

[Somerset]

I'll be nice & point out that Rosicky is injured & out of the Czech squad, so you might wanna change your tip there.

Oops. Change to Milan Baros then.

 

[99*]

Meh, tea break and I have 15 mins until kick-off. Lets have a go.

SWI 0 - CZE 1, Kolle.

POR 2 - TUR 0, Ronaldo.

Baros not in the starting line-up, crap, quick change, um, Jan Kolle.

Switzerland 0 Czech Republic 3, Skacel

Changing scorer to Galasek. Fecking Brückner.

if you change your tip, please could you quote your original post in a new one rather than edit as it's easy to miss them.

That's an own-goal for Mutu, I assume?

Heh, have no Idea why I put Mutu, meant Henry. Corrected

 

[99*]

Ohh, did not see that.

Day One Update, Part 1

=1) NUFAN 6
Vimes 6
Halsey 6
99* 6
=5) Steulen 4
cpr 4
Rubble 4
Brumby 4
Somerset 4
=10) grecian 3
Jamee 3
Headhunter 3
biased indian 3
Clapo 3
altoz 3
Steds 3

Sverkos as the first goalscorer foxes us all, but NUFAN, Vimes, Halsey & 99* all correctly tipped 1-0 to the Czechs. Another 5 of us pick up the point for correct one goal margin & everyone else has to make do with 3 points for the Czech win.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Two correct scorelines is clearly not going to continue:

Austria 1-3 Croatia (Srna)
Germany 2-0 Poland (Klose)

 

[grecian]

I'm having a 'mare. I blame McCLOWN

 

[steds]

Austria 1 Croatia 0 (Ivanschitz)
Germany 2 Poland 0 (Podolski)

Day One Update, Part 2

Match

=1) NUFAN 6
Steulen 6
Headhunter 6
Halsey 6
Brumby 6
altoz 6
Somerset 6
Steds 6
99* 6
=10) Jamee 3
Rubble 3
biased indian 3
Clapo 3
=14) grecian 0
cpr 0
Vimes 0

Popular score 2-0; no less than nine of us correctly predicted the Portuguese getting up by that score. Grecian, cpr & Sam all draw blanks by incorrectly opting for a draw. Once again the goalscorer(s) defeat us all.

Overall

=1) NUFAN -12
Halsey - 12
99* - 12
=4) Steulen -10
Brumby - 10
Somerset - 10
=7) Headhunter - 9
altoz - 9
Steds - 9
10) Rubble - 7
=11) Vimes - 6
Jamee - 6
biased indian - 6
Clapo - 6
15) cpr - 4
16) grecian - 3

NUFAN, Halsey & 99* can congrate themselves on a job well done with two spot-on predictions for the day & a share of the early lead. Less pleased will surely be grecian, propping things up with just the 3 points so far.
