Now I don't expect many of you lot are football fans, but there may be one or two. I often put together a bit of a sweep for friends and family as a football tournament approaches, and thought I would do one for the Euro 2016 finals. It is a bit of a laugh and gives you the chance to prove to your friends that you are a footie guru for just £3 !! 

 

Rules: 
1. Predict results and scores for each group match...3 points for correct result only, 5 points for correct score and result.
2. Then predict which teams will reach each stage of the knockouts, 4 points for every team correctly predicted to make the last 16, 8 points for every team correctly predicted to make the Quarter Finals, 10 points for every team correctly predicted to make the Semi finals, 15 points for every team correctly predicted to make the final and 25 points for predicting the tournament winner.
3. The final pot will be split so that 1st place gets 50% of the pot, 2nd place gets 25% of the pot, 3rd place gets 15% of the pot and the person in 1st place at the end of the group stage will win 10% of the pot. All cash received goes into prizes.
4. Maximum of 100 entrants, first come first served.

£3 per entry, to be paid in cash or via paypal (friends and family) to colin@aboutfarthings.co.uk

A full set of completed entries will be issued to each entrant, so that all completed forms are witnessed by everyone (I will remove the e-mail addresses from the form for privacy).

Updates of the score board will be issued through via e-mail at regular intervals.

 

Blank form is attached that can be completed and returned

 

Chris if you have any problems with this just let me know

I was reading the stats in the email, so England are joint top in the predictions to win it!? Those who chose them to win are going to be gutted when they get kicked out of the last 16 :P

Noticed ladbrokes have priced England up at 8/1 to win outright.

That must be the worse bet ever and to short..........people still have there sentimental bets :rolleyes:
