Firstly, my apologies for a competition that I was always slightly behind with. I have learnt a lot about this style of predictions competition though and I feel as though (having now calculated totals) the scoring system is very good.

Here is the table and congratulations to our landslide winner, DiCanio:]

DiCanio 153
Red 113
Trickster 109
Tick 89
ABCDEF 82

DiCanio managed 11 EXACT predictions throughout the world cup, so Im pretty sure if he had put a quid on the result of every match, he would have come out with a profit.

Here is a breakdown of what everyone managed to predict (so you can check for yourself what you were good at)....

Remember you could predict the winner, a draw, margin of victory, the scores each side would get, and exact scores bonus.

ABCDEF: 18 winners, 3 draws, 8 margins, 27 scores and 4 exact results
Tick: 22 winners, 4 draws, 8 margins, 30 scores and 3 exact results
Red: 29 winners, 2 draws, 14 margins, 35 scores, and 5 exact results
DiCanio: 30 winners, 3 draws, 14 margins, 53 scores and 11 exact results
Trickster: 21 winners, 3 draws, 12 margins, 37 scores, and 6 exact results.

DiCanio

Bugger! My alzheimer's must of kicked in again, thought I posted a reply to ABCDEF's post a couple of days ago must of forgotten to press the send button( the nice man in the white coat usually does it for me but he's been on holiday for a week!), so...
Many thanks ABCDEF for setting up the comp and keeping check of all the stats, I enjoyed doing it probably more than watching the actual tourny. Have to admit I do prefer the prediction comps rather more than the fantasy team type ones,
don't know why just do!
Might well have got a double up if I hadn't blown me predictions @ the quarter final stage of Ticks World Cup Swindle (damn those gambles...he does it on purpose you know that Tick fella!!)
Cheers anyways I'll wear my crown with pride Here's hoping I do as well in the Prem League Comp

Well done Dicanio. Wasn't even close you blew all away.
