    Very close in the end. DaveStorry wins using the Number of Goals Prediction Tie Breaker. Even that is only by one goal!

    Well done all involved.
    AFKA - did you use the real life point spreads and values for each round?
    If so, we are bloody good !!!!!!

    Cheers guys for arranging and doing all the donkey work on the spreadsheet.

    Added a bit of interest to an otherwise disappointing world cup.

    I'm somewhat surprised to have come out on top.

    Just found out i won the F365 WC cup betting comp, out of 99 people. Won a £100 free bet with Skybet.

    Nice surprise.

    Congratulations to Dave Storry on winning the coveted signed Charlton Shirt, and commiserations to Red ArmySE7 for missing out on the tie-break by just a single goal (and thank gawd i included the tie break !)

    Thanks to the 67 of you for participating in the competition, and thanks to Red in SE8 and redzed for providing the updates. I still reckon at least 20 of you still have no idea what the competition was about, yet 49 of you ended up making a profit, which is impressive. If it wasn't for me stupidly backing Cameroon, i would have run away with it.

    Had Holland won, Mr One Lung would have been the winner.

    We'll have a few more competitions planned for the start of the season, so keep your eyes peeled before it all kicks off.

    And don't take any betting advice off Budleigh Addick, Adamtheaddick and RodneyCharltonTrotta !!

    I did alright for not having a scooby what I was doing! I'd love to tell you all it was calculations and thinking but I simply got lucky then picked a random number!

    MOG, you come 36th, making an overall profit of 3,600, thanks very much to backing Spain on your 2nd highest bet.

    You lost 3,000 backing Brazil
    You made 8,550 backing Spain
    You lost 700 backing Argentina
    You lost 1,250 backing England

    Feck, just read this.. ha ha ha 2nd bottom. Might have somthing to do with the fact I had no idea what I was doing.. very poor, very poor indeed. I will stick to normal betting as won 30 notes last month on a patent bet, know where I am with odds not this spread betting malarky, no proffesional footballer could ever get into this its way to difficult!!!
