Nowt to do with me as I'm not even entered, but it's interesting how the people who are doing really well, predicting the right results and score lines have a poor goal difference, while those at the bottom of the table, who have predicted just one correct result but no correct sore lines have an almost perfect goal difference.

It does suggest there's something wrong with the formula for working out goal difference.

 

I think the guys with very few points have only predicted a few games hence why their GD is so low.

 

I think Jay's right I'm near the top but have a Barnsley-esque goal difference of -15

So far, I've got 6 results right, but no correct scores. The Dutch battering of Spain killed my GD though.

 

Is there a prize for highest ranked goal difference?

 

I missed the brazil v croatia game

 

I think it's a stupid game ! (Just for record I will change my view "if" I move up the table)

 

Pfffh. and you're ahead of me in the table! I think it's a stupid game more than you do!

 

Lol you've just become my target of who I need to stay ahead of

 

Just checked the table this morning & I've caught Kev B up! No effing idea how I did that.

It's a brilliant game this now, it's called "catch Kev in the BBS Prediction league"

 

HA HA brill, (even if its ***** again now )

 

Belgium 2 Algeria 1. Get in - at last I've got one right. Have I gone above Kev yet? :nails:

 

Errrr......





No

 

I'm rubbish at this, I keep missing kick off! I've missed another 2 matches today - that's 7 so far!

 

Really?! 3 games per day....

 

What?!?!?!?! You mean you went 2-1 as well?!?!?!?

Bleeding chuff

 

I went 3-0

 

Just checked again, and you're just behind me - 3 points versus 4. AND you've missed 7 games! I must be really really crap at this...

 

Tha just gone above me, ****ing hate this game,

Chess anyone
