Good idea, I'll make some tips later.

PS: Can anyone move this to Off-Topic board, where all the football-related threads are ?

No, it's a prediction outside the mainstream "Oh, Brazil will win !" or "Oh, Spain will win !" ... Tongue

Not trolling.

Spain winning is somewhat less of a mainstream pick now. Sad

Not a few days ago though ... Wink

PS:

Simfan, don't be silly and don't report something like this next time: I made the Bosnia pick because I think the players could stick together for one time and play for the country that was badly damaged in the floods recently. And Belgium is just a dark horse pick, because they are in good shape.

I'm betting 30€ on the USA (!) today, for a quota of 1:11, which means I would win 300€ if the US beats Germany.

Tongue

Unlikely that this happens, but I can afford the risk.

Go USA ! USA ! USA !

Needless to say, I'm counting these as 1-1, Brazil / Netherlands to advance, so if the details about what goes on after the 90th minute are wrong you don't lose any points.

There was a third recipient of a pm btw, but he has three days' time before the game requiring correction comes up.

Passt.
