You and your gambling. Bloody hell eh?
ReplyDeleteI have had only my second football bet of the last twelve months on the World Cup (the first was Portsmouth to get relegated at 7/1 last June) I'm backing Greece to win their group at a mouth watering 8/1.
Oh, and lowest scouring? North Korea. I imagine if those boys go back without the trophy they will be scouring the streets of Pyongyang for their rest of their lives! As for the rest of your predictions, conservative but probably right (with perhaps Fabiano as top goalscorer)
Funnily enough, the first time I tried to work it out I got a USA vs Germany final. Funny old word...
I think Argentina will do better (pro: Messi, con: Maradona) and England will do worse. France are shaky too.
