World Cup Sweepstake

Oh good!

Shane Shmeltz still play for them? Great player at AFC Wimbledon in their early days.

He is actually New Zealander. and yes, has been picked for World Cup

if there is one going spare - i will join in - but it must be a non-lager, MILD drinking country

You will be hoping you get England...

[Conrad]

Well HTM can have MM's spare and Soup have mine?

If anyone else has missed out and wants in, Dave is still able to sacrifice, and if you ask nicely you may convince one of the lucky receivers of 2 numbers to part with one?

Sorry Roger, I am probably just causing more trouble for you here

Maybe change the thread title from World Cup Sweepstake to World Cup logistical nightmare!

[Soup Dragon]

we could always extend it to 33 teams and give Ireland another chance!

Its nailed on I'll get South Korea here as well as in my work one. An interesting one though living here with one of the largest ex-pat Korean populations in the world. The Fountain pub http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/36018/ always sets up for a base for Korean fans during the world cup. Its an experience to go down there and watch one of their games in an exuberant yet totally unthreatening atmosphere.

I remember this being in the papers when the Japan / S Korea World Cup was held!

Just had a wonderful evening session with 4 local live bands and several pints of Westerham British Bulldog (one of which I had to half pull myself whilst semi-training a rookie barmaid for whom a hand pump was a very scary object). I think I'll sort out the sweepstake mess tomorrow.

Crap.... Excuse my English.

Off to drown my sorrow...

EDIT: Just had a look at my test draw.. very spookily I had Honduras at No 6 and Algeria at No 14.. just one away from my number 7 and 13...
