Our football (soccer) club did a sweepstake for this with a slight difference, during every training session you have to wear the top of the country you have drawn also only allowed alcohol from that country during matches (leaves a few being sober).  Unfortunately I drew France, going to kill me having to wear that top

Roughly what time will matches be at in Irish time. There are times on the FIFA website but I dont know if thats local time or if its just detecting my IP address and putting them in Irish time.

Anybody any idea?

Rooney has to be a big worry for England! only looked half fit again today & had to be taken off

hope he's fit. Don't want them to have any excuses when they get thumped

I'd rather listen to "what could have been" or the "maybe, just maybe" Sun advertisements (the one where they have 2 stars above the badge) on TV than listen to them if they actually won it. Doesn't bear thinking about.

Is it possible to get odds on Rooney failing to score in the world cup?

I hope Rooney is fit to show up his hype for what it is... BBC hype

paco

I wouldn't think so Worker. Especially with the group they're in.

hopefully the odds are good then

He's 10/1 to win the top scorer, so make what you will of that. I seen an interesting bet on Maradona to be banished to the stands at any time, 14/1. Also interesting, Javier Mascherano to commit the most fouls: 16/1 or...Ronaldo to win the best player, win the golden boot and take his shirt off after scoring: 33/1.

Still haven't made my mind up what double to do for the world cup e.g. Spain & villa etc what's your tips on that one?

ross4life

Villa is worth a bet for the Golden boot, Spain should have plenty of games & Villa is by far there top goal scorer
