"The Football Accumulator Thread"

Right, i know some of you guys are not keen football fans so probably not a great thread for you - sorry.

However, for the few of us that enjoy football, i thought this could proove to be fun!

I love doing football Accumulators and very often, well actually never, have i won a bet of one. So to try help me spending all my hard earned cash i thought we could play a game. These are the rules (and even people who know nothing about football can play!)

Each week i will post the fixtures for the premier league on here.
From them you choose 4 games and say how it will go.
Getting 3 out of the 4 correct grants you a point.
Getting all 4 will get you 3 points.

Simple, right! I will of course keep a list on here and update the scored of the people playing.
So let me know if your interested in playing along. Fun game to keep me occupied and may actually help me finally win a bet!

I have mentioned on here before that I refuse to bet on Chelsea regardless of the game or possible reward. It's tempting fate which I won't do.

And McLong, stop moaning. I apologised. You've been crying for a day now :D

lol - play nicely staffies!!

So what are people's thoughts on this weekend, want to do it with international matches??

No real point but maybe for funsies?

Ok!

These will not contribute to the league, but will be fun for this weekend!

But as a rule, you have to include one Qualifying game in your 4 selections.

Also would be good to hear what you guys expect from England, but they do not need to be in your 4 selections

The international games are;

FIFA World Cup European Qualifying

Greece v Ukraine
Portugal v Bosnia-Hercegovina
Rep of Ireland v France
Russia v Slovenia

International Match - Friendly

Belgium v Hungary
Brazil v England
Costa Rica v Uruguay
Croatia v Liechtenstein
Denmark v South Korea
Estonia v Albania
FYR Macedonia v Canada
Germany v Chile
Italy v Netherlands
Luxembourg v Iceland
Northern Ireland v Serbia
Poland v Romania
Saudi Arabia v Belarus
Slovakia v USA
South Africa v Japan
Spain v Argentina
Switzerland v Norway
Wales v Scotland
Honduras v Latvia
Iraq v Azerbaijan
United Arab Emirates v Czech Republic

Ok, just for the fun - four selections:

Portugal WIN
Hungary WIN
Denmark WIN
Spain WIN

EDIT: Forgot England prediction - Brazil to win.

Russia, Croatia, FYR Macedonia & USA

I think Brazil/England will be a bore draw, working on Saturday so will only be able to watch a little bit.

Greece - Win
Portugal - Win
Germany - Win
Russia - Win

I think that Brazil will draw with England

england tobeat brazil 2-1???

Wahey i'm on the table twice :D
