yeh, I've got a Excel spreadsheet that my dad made up for his office prediction league for World Cup 98! Once I find it again and update it with the fixtures for Euro 2008, I'll let people get a copy to submit their scores. I can't quite remember the scoring, but i think its:

Team A score correct - 2 points
Team B score correct - 2 points
Correct goal difference - 1 point
correct win - 3 points
correct draw - 1 point (might make this worth 3 points too)
perfect score - 2 points

meaning 10 points for a correct score (8 if a draw).

I don't mind. Could do an entry fee and then split it (depending on how many enter) between top few places.

ok, you can download a scores template from here:

http://www.dalzielrugby.com/files/predict08.xls

once you've filled it in, rename it with your name and send it back to me (niall@dalzielrugby.com)

I'll try to print some copies off and get them up to training tonight (though I would prefer you filling in the excel version, saves me having to transfer the data across!)

Want to make it £2 entry?


edit: If you don't have excel, you can download a pdf version:
http://www.dalzielrugby.com/files/predict08.pdf

If you can't use that, they let me know and i'll think of something!

when do you need your entrys in for - lots of injuries, team news, etc. before the thing kicks off.

I'll download it and get it sent to you.

Hi guys great idea, but Niall, are you sure you,ve got the teams right, I can't find England mentioned anywhere, did they not qualify?

Thanks
