SOAPBOARDS WORLD CUP PREDICTION GAME!
As the World Cup is getting nearer, I’m going to be running a World Cup Predictions game.
The Concept is simple. For every game England play in the World cup, you have to predict several things:
Whether England will Win/Lose
What the overall score will be, for both sides
Who will score the first goal of the matchYou will score points as follows;
Ø 2 points - for guessing whether England will win/lose correctly
Ø 4 points - for guessing the overall score correctly
Ø 4 points – for guessing the first goal scorer correctly
That will give everyone a potential ten points to score each time.
The points people score each match will be totalled as we go along, and the person who has the most at the end will be crowned winner, and will receive a prize, when the new money system is up and running.
To help the people out who don’t watch football so much, I’ll post the names and pictures of the England Squad closer to the time. Then before every match, I’ll post the squad and positions of the opposing team. That means that when you name the first goal scorer, it should be easier.
I hope everyone will get involved in this, whether you’re a football fan or not. You don’t need to know anything about Football, just be lucky in a way.
The World Cup starts in 18 days. You can start predicting shortly before this, when I give the word!
So if any of this doesn’t make sense, or people have any comments/suggestions, then make them right here, right now! Also, i'd love to know what you think of this idea. :D
Thanks and Enjoys!
Abi x
Great Abi! Will get everyone in the World Cup Mood! Even me who isnt that much into football! :D
Sounds good to me. Will you be saying who is in the match? As I know absolutely nothing about football.
Sounds good to me. Will you be saying who is in the match? As I know absolutely nothing about football.
Yeah, i'll post the England Squad next week sometime, then the opposing team a few days before each match. Hopefully, i'll try and find some pictures for them all as well, but thats more time-permitting, what with exams and everything.

sounds good, ill play, but when you say predict the first person, is that the first person in the match (doesnt matter what team theyre from) or the first english player?
The first in the match.
So say England were playing Germany, for example, then the first goal scorer can be from either the England OR the Germany squad. Its up to you. I'll post the England Squad later on, which are going to Germany. then each each i'll post the opposing team, and the England players that are playing against them. Then you pick from any of them, really.
If that didn't make sense, then shout me :D

can we have more than 1 guess? lol! :D
I think that's besides the point lol!
So the final results were...
England won.
The score was 1:0
Gamarra scored an own goal for England.
Therefore the results are as follows...
Kim131: 2
Big Bro Fan: 2
jojomum: 2
Jessie Wallace: 2

So Chloe O Brien is in the lead, as she guessed the 1:0 score correctly (if you get the score the wrong way round, then i'll still give it to you, if that makes sense, like i've done with Kath).
I'll get back to you soon about the next one. If you played this time, then i'll try and get a reminder out to you to do the next one, otherwise your scores wont total up well if you miss ones out.
Well done to Kath, as well!
(If anyone thinks i've added theirs up wrong, then shout me, and i'll double check :) )

oh i thought it was 1 point for each thing, obviously its 2 lol! when can we start predicting the next one?
No, its not. Because its easy to guess whether England will win/lose, you get 2 points for that. Then you get 4 points if you get the other ones right, so you can get a possible total out of 10 (because thats a nice and easy number :D )
So, because Kath got the score right, she got 4 points, even though she didn't get the win/lose bit right. If that makes sense.
I'm just about to get the details on the next match, so you'll be able to start predicting that one again in a second...

oh right, i understand now lol! okie doke then :)
ok, the next match will be...
ENGLAND V TRINIDAD AND TOGAGO
On the 15th June, in the Evening. So you have untill then to guess whether England will win/lose, the overall score, and who will score the first goal.
The Trinidad and Tobago squad is as follows...
Goalkeepers
HISLOP Shaka, JACK Kelvin, INCE Clayton
Defenders
COX Ian, JOHN Avery, ANDREWS Marvin, SANCHO Brent, LAWRENCE Dennis, GRAY Cyd, CHARLES Atiba
Midfielders
BIRCHALL Christopher, WHITLEY Aurtis, EDWARDS Carlos, THEOBALD Densill, WOLFE Anthony
Forwards
LATAPY Russell, SAMUEL Collin, GLEN Cornell, JOHN Stern, JONES Kenwyne, WISE Evans, YORKE Dwight, SCOTLAND Jason
So get predicting again!!
Remember, your score this time will be added to your total from last time, to keep a running total. But this doesn't mean you can't join in now. The highest score last round was 4, so its still possible to get involved. Why not, eh?!
yay i got 2 points
for the next one:

well atm equador are top of group a so it all depends on the result when they play germany, germany need to win otherwise they will only finish second. although this morning i thought that if germany came second then we would want to come second too, ive decided now that even if germany finish second that it would be best for us to play them cos otherwise the quarterfinals will be against argentina which isnt what we want lol!
The Next Match is...
ENGLAND V SWEDEN on the 20th of June.
Swedens Team is as follows...
Goalkeepers: ISAKSSON Andreas ALVBAGE John SHAABAN Rami

Midfielders: LINDEROTH Tobias ALEXANDERSSON Niclas SVENSSON Anders LJUNGBERG Freddie KALLSTROM Kim ANDERSSON Daniel WILHELMSSON Christian
Forwards: IBRAHIMOVIC Zlatan, LARSSON Henrik, ELMANDER Johan, JONSON Mattias, ALLBACK Marcus, ROSENBERG Markus
So you know how it works by now. Guess who'll win, the score, and the first goal scorer, to win points.

sweden 2 : 0
LJUNGBERG to score 1st
Abi, don't you mean the 20th of June?

isnt the match on in the afternoon not the evening? also, i know this was like an england prediction game, but do you think we could do it for the final as well, you dont have to add it to the totals if you dont want to, but like just for fun to see who can predict it closest?

Yeah, i meant the afternoon. I just looked at when it finished, and saw it said 6.00 so wrote evening. My mistake. :D
Yeah, i was thinking about doing the finals. Hopefully, i should be able to add that into it, but i want to check the dates i'm going on holiday first before i say yes for definate, because i'm not sure if they'll clash or not. But i'm 80% sure i will add that into it, as a bonus, somehow.

Should I not have 8 points overall? I got 2 for the t&t game. Not that it really matter, I just wondered

Yep, sorry, didn't notice. I'll edit it now.
Thanks for pointing it out. With all the numbers, i'm bound to miss the odd one out somewhere!

Rightio, the next match is...
ENGLAND V PORTUGAL
On the 1st of July, at 5pm
The Portugal Team are as follows...
Goalkeepers: RICARDO, QUIM, PAULO SANTOS
Defenders: PAULO FERREIRA, CANEIRA, RICARDO COSTA, FERNANDO MEIRA, MIGUEL, NUNO VALENTE, RICARDO CARVALHO
Midfielders: COSTINHA, PETIT, HUGO VIANA, MANICHE, TIAGO, DECO
Forwards: LUIS FIGO, PAULETA, SIMAO SABROSA, BOA MORTE, CRISTIANO RONALDO, NUNO GOMES, HELDER POSTIGA
Some facts that might help you predict the outcome..
Portugal and England have played each other 10 times. 5 times they drew, 3 times England won, and 2 times Portugal won.
Portugals current FIFA world cup ranking is 7th. England is currently 10th.
Portugals best goal scorer is Pauleta, with 47 goals. Followed by Figo with 32
Rules are the same as ever, and all it takes is this one match and one prediction for anyone to take over the lead, remember. If you guess everything correctly, you can earn 10 points, remember.
Good luck! :D

Portugal to win :)
2-1
Ermm Gerrard to score first.
As it went down the Penalties, and had a 0-0 score before that, i'm going to ignore all predictions on the 1st Goal Scorer, as no one properly scored in the main match, nor in extra time.
The final score was...
0-0 after Extra Time, and England lost on penalties.
So people scored as follows...
Crazylea: 2
Spicyspy: 0
bondboffin: 2
squillyfer: 2 (She correctly said it would be a draw after extra time, so i'm giving her the points)
di marco: 0
Jessie Wallace: 0
Pookie1968uk: 0
cornetgal: 2
chloe o brien: 2
Kim131: 2
Pixie: 0
So that means the overall scores are...
Kim131: 12
Big Bro Fan: 8
jojomum: 8
Jessie Wallace: 2
di Marco: 12
Cornetgal: 8
Pookie1968uk: 14 Joint 2nd Place
Cornishbabe: 2
the_watts_rule: 2
Chloe O Brien: 10
crazylea: 2
bondboffin: 20 1st Place
spicyspy: 12
Pixie: 14 Joint 2nd Place
Siobhan: 2

BUT its not ending there. England might be out of the World Cup, but as i said earlier in this thread, i'm going to do a predictions round on the final of the World Cup- for Double Points, meaning that Bry, who is at First place so far, could easily be taken over.
Its still open to anyone, really!
The World Cup 2006 final is ITALY V FRANCE.
As i said last week, i'm going to give double points for this round. However, as most people dont know Italian or French players, it seems almost pointless to me including this in it. So all i'm going to ask for is....
Who you think will win (Worth 4 points)
What you think the score will be: (Worth 8 points)
This means 12 points are at stake in this round alone!
This match is going to be played this SUNDAY, so you have untill then you get your predictions in.
Good luck!
And remember, this is the absolute last chance to get some points and move up the leaderboard! :D
Italy to win
1 - 0 the result
