OK, I've updated the state of play thread.
Looks like I'm going to lose a third team today if Ukraine don't pull their fingers out. And my best shot at a prize (France) were rubbish yesterday.
Which jammy bastard drew Argentina?

I don't believe in that theory.
After all, a team can't peak too soon or too late in a full season can they? Players don't just turn it on for seven games and then turn it off again. So why should they start doing it in a major tournament such as this?
Argentina will almost certainly be in the top three finishers.
England won't make the quarters at their current rate - we're not going to be peaking any time soon unless we sort ourselves out.

I fear they could be out today as Aussie only need a draw and have looked quite useful (unlucky to lose 2-0 to Brazil).....Unfortunately either tc or root will be out of the sweepstake today.....tc wrote:I'm surprised Croatia are still even in with a chance ...

Could be worse Sam, at least they now can't meet again until the final so you could still collect money both through your bet and the sweepstakeSam wrote:Soup Dragon... In reply to your Haiku, yes I am still happy with the Argies, I am torn though, as before the sweepskate, I put a £5 bet on Holland to win the world cup....
