Just found this web site showing a comprehensive view of matches, dates etc.

Whoever designed this deserves a medal.

For the record, I hope the Aussies take something. I just have a feeling the Germans will nick it.

Ahem, my name has two Ds in it.

So far, impressively bad predicting by me. Good job I'm not betting on the football.

Come on Germany/Netherlands (sorry Cul, but I can only hope your heart has got the better of your head on that one).

Yes, Slovenia! Whilst watching it, I thought I had it down as 2-0 to Slovenia, but apparently not. Five points now - I'm coming to get you, Cul!

Now come on Serbia, do your thing.

Re: FIFA WC Tipping comp

I was thinking the same, Lenny - until I saw that Cul had Slovenia down to win 1-0. The word 'fiddlesticks' springs to mind...

Re: FIFA WC Tipping comp

He's also got Ghana down to win... rats. They're looking very likely to win. More so than Serbia.

I'm coming for you now, Tillane! Second place is mine.

EDIT: But with free kicks like that, Serbia may well come out on top. Come on!

Heh. If you;re chasing me, you may be disappointed to discover where you end up. Think I'm already down to fourth or fifth...

Re: FIFA WC Tipping comp

Cul is 2 for 2 today. He's gonna be hard to catch at this rate.

Got another point from Ghana, but I've clearly anticipated too many goals being scored (thought these new-fangled balls would make it difficult for keepers).
