One question, having looked at Group 1: How are places decided if points are equal? Goal difference? # of wins?

 

[Swansman]

Scoring decent number of goals, defense is a ship wreck though... 5 losses, 1 win. RIP Finland.

As it is now. If you finish level on points the placings are determined by the number of goals scored.

Now, folk will be wanting to know how they have done. So please get your answers in by 7pm Wednesday. The final standings and the second round format (four groups of four) will then be published.

Even if you are out of the reckoning please play along. There is a lot on some of these matches so try and sum up some enthusiasm for your dead rubbers. Give your fans something to cheer.

Oh, please read the questions carefully & have a go even if you don't know the answer. Some entries have lost potential points because of this.

In the event of a tie on points in any group the highest place team is always the one who has scored most goals. If there is still a tie it goes to goal difference.

[Super Steve Earle]

Scored just 1 goal in the second round and still scooped another 4 points to keep little Estonia alive in the Scandi battle for 4th place in Group One. 4 goals and 8 points so far with just 2 defeats. Hughtonesque!

[MENTION=28934]AmexRuislip[/MENTION] must be BARRY LLOYD. In the qualifying positions with a negative goal difference. I'm not sure who Hans Kraay is. Second top goalscorer and may not even make the cut.

Compare with Ireland, who have also scored 8 points – but from 23 goals!

[MENTION=3566]hans kraay fan club[/MENTION] is the current league champion. Teams raise their game against him.

Either that or he needs to sack his defensive coach.

 

[Mellotron]

Shit. Top with 3 wins from 3 to 7th place. Brutal.

 

[Barham's tash]

Gibralta must have a lot of ringers

Let’s just ponder this for a second...

He has answered FOUR of 30 questions correctly, and has 8 pts.

I have answered TWENTY THREE of those same 30 questions correctly, and also have 8 pts.

It’s a CONSPIRACY I tell you.

I've got to play the top 3! Can't see low scoring Norway progressing.

Thank you. Another brilliant set of questions which I have spent my morning on.. This is exactly the knowledge I try to learn. Really enjoying it.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I'm loving these questions so far. On first reading I have the exact same reaction every time - 'oh shit, I'm in trouble'. But they're like great songs that need a few listens to reveal their charms...the more i re-read them and ponder the more I get an idea of the answer or at least can have an educated guess. Apart from those ones where despite thinking on them for a few hours I still have no idea. I'll call them the U2/Bono questions...

Ha, no! I copied my Father who also posts on here. It's also one of my favourite games from The Withdean!
