Euro 2016 Grandstand

[Leewilson]

Slight edit made as Gullit finished on 28 points, not 26, meaning they grab a share of 2nd place in the advantage task.

 

[PaulHaddock]

We struggled on the second grid. The link we had on the first for Charlton, lineker and co. was too tenuous! Had them down as English scorers vs Argentina.

 

[Stevencc]

Thank fuck for Stevencc and C&B in ours, completed it in 27 minutes.

Me, Murphy and TCM couldn't get on due to the shit website.

This man is a barefaced liar.

Dave and TCM presided over this failing.

 

[Stevencc]

You can't quit because...

 

[G-Dragon]

So which Scenario did everyone choose for today's game?

 

[Stevencc]

No comment.

 

[G-Dragon]

No comment.

I thought goals scored 1.5 was the obvious choice for Portugal?

Any chance of getting the scenario predictions before KO?

Also, from 8 pm no more edits can be made in the wallchart round so can we then get the full predictions for that?

I'll post it all when I get home from work (at 10), if Lee doesn't do it first.

 

[Leewilson]

Just got home from tennis. Will get on to posting stuff now. Will be around tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday evenings to live score.

 

[Leewilson]

Right, let's do this one week at a time. Also, everything for week 4 and 5 is over 90 minutes. Extra time does not count.

Week 4
1 point correct team, 3 points correct result, 5 points correct score

Gullit: Poland 0 v 1 Croatia
Deschamps: Poland 2:2 Croatia
Klinsmann: Poland 1-2 Croatia
Olsen: Poland 0-1 Portugal
Zagorakis: Poland 1-2 Portugal
Casillas: Poland 1-2 Croatia

2 points a piece so far for Olsen and Zagorakis for having both teams (courtesy of their first edit). 1 point for everyone else for having Poland so far. The results and score could change this.

Scores after 2nd round:
Gullit - 10
Deschamps - 9
Zagorakis - 7
Olsen - 6
Casillas - 4
Klinsmann - 3

Week 5

Can we get the wallchart predictions please?

 

[Leewilson]

Can we get the wallchart predictions please?

No. I'm revealing them one game at a time.

Edit: If you meant tonight's game, it'll be up a bit later

 

[Leewilson]

Gullit: Wales 0 v 1 Belgium
Deschamps: Wales 2:1 Belgium
Klinsmann: Wales 1-2 Belgium
Olsen: Wales 1-2 Belgium
Zagorakis: Wales 0-1 Belgium
Casillas: Wales 1-2 Belgium

Big one for Deschamps here. If Wales win or even just qualify, that could well win them this round. Losing though could put them up against it.

We're playing it cool with our jokers...

 

[Super_horns]

Well so we're in the odd position of wanting Wales to win but letting in a few goals and allow Belgium to have a decent number of shots on goal.



Basically hoping for a 4-3/5-4 classic..

 

[Super_horns]

Certainly been very open and a few bookings.

We will either gain points from a Wales win or Belgium goals/efforts.

 

[Leewilson]

Week 4

Gullit: Wales 0 v 1 Belgium 2 POINTS
Deschamps: Wales 2:1 Belgium 5 POINTS
Klinsmann: Wales 1-2 Belgium 2 POINTS
Olsen: Wales 1-2 Belgium 2 POINTS
Zagorakis: Wales 0-1 Belgium 2 POINTS
Casillas: Wales 1-2 Belgium 2 POINTS

Scores after Wales - Belgium:
Deschamps - 18
Gullit - 13
Zagorakis - 11
Olsen - 10
Casillas - 7
Klinsmann - 6

Could be a huge step to 10 overall points for Deschamps. Can they produce the mother of all comebacks in the game?

Week 5

Gullit
Goals scored more than 1.5 (7 points) - Belgium
Goals conceded more than 1.5 (7 points) - Wales

Deschamps
Goals conceded more than 1.5 (7 points) - Wales
Attempts on target more than 6.5 (7 points) - Belgium

Klinsmann

Fouls (pts per foul) - Wales 11 POINTS

Corners (pts per corner) - Wales 7 POINTS

Casillas
Goals conceded more than 1.5 (7 points) - Wales
Corners (pts per corner) - Belgium 8 POINTS

Leaderboard after match 2/4
Zagorakis - 26 points
Olsen - 21 points
Klinsmann - 12 points
Deschamps - 11 points
Casillas - 11 points
Gullit - 3 points

An excellent night for Klinsmann who get their challenge back on track. Zagorakis leapfrog Olsen after a poor night for the in form reds. Gullit need an excellent last 4 scenarios to claw whatever points they can muster from this round.

 

[Leewilson]

Overall table - week 3/6

1) Team Zagorakis - 13
2) Team Gullit - 11
2) Team Olsen - 11
4) Team Casillas - 6
5) Team Klinsmann - 3
5) Team Deschamps - 3

And just a reminder what that overall table actually looks like as we haven't seen it for a while. 10 points for Deschamps if they win week 4 could be huge. Still a very open game this.


Also, the final advantage task for week 6 will take place on Sunday. It will start at 2pm and finish at 7.30pm. It's not a live task and just requires an entry before the deadline. It will need a bit of discussion though so try and get on if you can throughout to mull over your entry.

 

[Super_horns]

Typical of our fortune!

Get the win but lose out on 14 points!

 

[Techno Natch]

Gutting. Happy with my call of Wales going through though had a feeling there would be a few surprises.
