Ah right. Cool.

Any more takers for the sweepstake? I haven't gone through this with the other runners yet but I am thinking (to give everyone the chance of getting some dosh) the below:

Winner: 8m
Runner-Up: 4m
Team which contains the Euro 2012 highest scorer: 4m

by Fernando Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:25 pm

Spoiler:

by Bull Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:26 pm

you sould get some cash for being in thesemi final

by FIFA Diva Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:27 pm

Up to you guys on how you do it but I think all the money should go to the winner, all or nothing.

Twist I see you got Germany Cool

Or maybe

Winner: 5m
Runner Up: 3m
Losing Semi-Finalists: 2m each
Team which contains the Euro 2012 highest scorer: 4m

I think that is better actually. Agree to that?

by sodhat Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:29 pm

It's a lot of money for top scorer for me, maybe £2m is more reasonable there.

by Bull Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:29 pm

yeah should go 5m , 4m , 3m , 2m

by Fernando Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:30 pm

What about

Winner: 5m
Runner Up: 4m
Losing Semi-Finalists: 2m each
Player of the tournament: 1m

by TwisT Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:31 pm

Then:

Winner: 6m
Runner Up: 4m
Losing Semi-Finalists: 2m each
Team which contains the Euro 2012 highest scorer: 2m

EDIT: Remember everyone is putting 1m in so it should come to 16m prize money. Yes I know a few haven't answered yet, but this is the whole point of a sweepstake. If people that don't take part actually in the position to win some money - they don't get it

So that those who got a rubbish team have a chance of winning their money back.

That's what my work sweepstakes have done.

by **Hero** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:37 pm

Well there's me or Afro getting our money back then!

by sodhat Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:38 pm

Marky wrote:So that those who got a rubbish team have a chance of winning their money back.

Would that be first eliminated in terms of time, or the team with the worst record?

Because Group A have an advantage if it is time based.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:40 pm

Afternoon guys Very Happy

Glad to see law and order round this place Wink

SO WHOEVER HAS IRELAND CAN GET THE MONEY BACK

by Fernando Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:43 pm

Jose Enrique is available for his TM price of 11.5m

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:43 pm

So Bull after reading through all that. Are you in fact part of the three musketeers with Cherries and CF?

In terms of time. Group A does have an advantage, but i'd argue that whoever got Spain also got an advantage. Such is the sweepstake.

Maybe - but it would be fairer that someone who had the worst record get the money back in my opinion.
Happy to go with majority rule however.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:53 pm

I think it should be the team with the worst record tbh. Otherwise if you have like a crap team in Group D you have no hope of winning anything

Spain's advantage is down to their ability, not down to a clock which has nothing to do with performance. But I take what you are saying, it's the nature of the draw.

I think worst team in green gets their money back

by Trebs Tue 12 Jun 2012, 3:54 pm

I think the winner should get more money if I'm honest. Think it should be:
10m Winner
2m Finalist
1m x 2 Semi Finalist
2m worst record in group stages

by FIFA Diva Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:04 pm

Or all the money goes to the winner.

by Marky Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:06 pm

So;

Winner: £6M
Losing finalist: £3M
Semi finalists: £2M each
Team with top scorer: £2M
Team with worst record: £1M

I get what Trebs is saying, but this would be fairest IMO.

by Trebs Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:07 pm

3m/2m for finalist/semi finalists is too much IMO.

by **Afro** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:08 pm

When we kicked it off on Friday, it was a winner takes all.

That was what it was when a lot of managers signed up and I don't think it should be changed, despite me having the worst chance of everyone

by Marky Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:08 pm

Winner: £9M
Losing finalist: £2M
Semi finalists: £1M each
Team with top scorer: £2M
Team with worst record: £1M

That better?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:23 pm

Tactics are up for the Cup this week. I have made 11 changes to my starting team, but it is still a strong 11 with some good youngsters in there. Also Wilbraham has been unleashed in this competition again. Watch out Cool

You didn't know? CricketFan, Cherrys and you are brothers when you get really angry you transform into one big brother bigger then big brother on channel 5.

I don't like to be a grass but CricketFan keyed the PES disc just now because his favourite cricket player Keven Pitersen has retired or something.

Click on the home button the top left of the screen scroll down the forum under Sports and Quiz you'll see top 20 posters today and top posters of all time. You only get to see the top 20.

Today you've made 31 posts and lie in 16th position just about suriving relagation.

Top 20 only though, so you'll have to have had an epic day.......

onlytreblewinners wrote:Am I the only one that would like to win the cup?

I would obviously like to win the cup, but I would rather try and keep my injuries down for the league next week. I have more pressing concerns in that at the moment ie. I am in a relegation scrap!

by Trebs Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:39 pm

Well I've played a strong side, kept a couple out. Think if it was a league match there'd be two players different I'd use.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:43 pm

Of course if I get through this round in the cup, I might take it more seriously. But my next league match against Nando is important in the relegation fight, so I need my first XI to be fit really.

by **Afro** Tue 12 Jun 2012, 4:55 pm

Stumped my £1 on Rosicky to score first in this game.

Was so short of good ideas as to who might score, no-goalscorer became the most attractive option
