Ah come on man, you have a strategy!! Ffs
Calling @TonyTheHat and @malbec
Looks like you scores are missing for Round 2 matches
Cheers. Missed the two earlier games other ones are done
Well with Holland and France drawing that’s now eight incorrect results in a row for me.
NIL POINT😩
Round 2 went by at a pace, and included a fair number of draws, which always help to split the field. @Adpully takes the crown with 13.5 points from @stu on 13 points. At the foot, @TonyTheHat collects the wooden spoon with 2.5 points, from @malbec on 4 points.
Overall, @sjs clings onto top spot by 0.5 points from @stu and @adpully in third who both smashed Round 2. @htm_1968 drops to 4th. @murrayjohnson climbs 2 places to 5th at the expense of @pmac and @unclepuncle. @pan remains in 8th, and @TonyTheHat drops to the foot after @malbec leaps up into 9th.
Round 3 sees two games being played in parallel to close out each of the groups, with Scotland v Hungary kicking off tonight at 8pm
2.5 points!? Fcking shameful even if I was half drunk when I picked them. Equally drunk when I made the third round picks so things looking ominouus
You can still change 3rd round picks
I’ve had two pina coladas by the pool and two pints of cider already so not sure any changes I make would be an improvement.
Round 3 games, and those brave enough to predict draws have been rewarded! The crown is taken by @murrayjohnson with 11.5 points from @htm_1968 and @stu on 8.5 points. The wooden spoon goes to @Adpully on 1 point, from @pmac with 2.5 points.
Overall @stu goes top with a 0.5 point lead over @murrayjohnson while @sjs slides 2 places to third. @htm_1968 and @unclepuncle both move up one place at the expense of @Adpully and @pmac.
There are 8 games in the Round of 16, starting on Saturday when Switzerland play Italy.
Mid table respectability - heady days.
I’m coming for you mid table bastards.
Round of 16 proved to be more entertaining than the third round of group games. @malbec takes the crown with 12 points from @sjs on 10 points. The wooden spoon is shared out between @stu, @adpull and @TonyTheHat on 7.5 points, from @unclepuncle and @pan with 8 points.
Overall, @murrayjohnson goes top and @stu drops to 2nd half a point behind. @pmac rises one place to 6th at the expense of @unclepuncle.
The Quarter Finals are played on Friday 5th and Saturday 6th and begin with Spain v Germany, where the form team take on the hosts.
Ive just stumbled across ‘ai.sportnews’ for the first time on Instagram. I cant link to it but do have a look, the Southgate AI interviews are brilliant.
Quarter finals completed, and it turns out the match scores are handed out on 90 mins not at the end of extra time
Having said that, @stu played the system and smashed it with 10.5 points to take the crown from @TonyTheHat in 2nd on 7.5 points. The wooden spoon goes to @murrayjohnson with 1.5 points, from @pmac , @unclepuncle and @malbec all on 3 points.
Overall this leaves @stu in an almost unassailable position at the summit, 7 points ahead of @sjs with only 3 matches remaining. @htm_1968 moves up to 3rd, and @murrayjohnson drops to 4th. @pan rises 2 places to sixth, at the expense of @pmac and @unclepuncle. @TonyTheHat remains a tthe foot of the table, but now only half a point behind @malbec
The two semi-finals are played on 9th and 10th of July, starting with Spain taking on France.
Semi finals crown is shared between @htm_1968 and @Adpully with 4.5 points from @pan, @pmac , @murrayjohnson ,
@stu and @TonyTheHat on 3 points.
Wooden spoon collected by @sjs on nil points, from @unclepuncle with 1 point
Overall, @stu stays top, 6 points above @htm_1968 in 2nd and @murrayjohnson up into 3rd, with @sjs slipping to 4th. @TonyTheHat moves off the foot of the table to be level with @unclepuncle and 1 point above @malbec
Sunday evenings final sees Spain take on England at 8pm
Yass I’m Sam allerdyce
I can still finish bottom so I could yet be Roy Hodgson.
As with the Premier League competition my failure is the exact score points - shockingly bad effort.
Got the final result wrong but thankfully so did Malbec so I avoid the double.
Gutted. @stu would’ve definitely thrown this away with a 3rd place play off.
