It was a curious strategy to suddenly bet so small in the last two matches, I thought, but it paid off so congratulations.

The last two games could of gone either way depending on what team Van Gaal was going to put out.
The odds were low, so decided not to risk too much and hope others failed.
Thanks again for setting it up and looking forward o next season. t

Well done Mr Strangefish

I wish I'd chucked the house at the final now, was relying on you & HKFC going large on Ze Germans. Not being able to decide on the Holland semi and forgetting totally about the 3rd place game didn't help but it was always a 2 horse race between you and Hans in reality and your strategy paid off handsomely. Hope you had some real cash on it.

Well played Strangefish

It should be noted that [MENTION=12543]del strangefish[/MENTION] not only managed to beat us all in the nsc predict the world cup mini league but he was top of the England supporters mini league of 5533 players and out of 25000 global entrants he came 2nd - top tipping

Thanks Gazwag. Wasn't aware of that last stat.

 

[Soulman]

Congratulations. Top predictions

 

[Official Old Man]

Well done, top tipping there. Perhaps a 'tip of the week' thread for the coming season.

Good work del. Worthy winner.

Thanks HKFC,

I fcked up massively. I was waiting and waiting for Guiness Boy and Red n Blue to commit, because I knew that 13000 all in would take them past my total.

I was sat with my pads on waiting to go into bat, and was next in, so not entirely concentrating. I picked the draw, saw what I needed to bet to take me past you, and got the sodding maths wrong, by £300! What a dunce.

Damn. That was bad luck. Hope you had a good innings.
I went for a German win inside the 90. If I'd have bet an extra 600 vCash on them you'd have pipped me by two quid!!!

Apologies for leaving you padded up. I only remembered I hadn't bet on Saturday when Holland got the penalty.

After that it was a case of laying what I thought would achieve the sort of total that would secure third and get the win if you leaders had gone in very large. Al least I beat the Palace fan. There was a point where he was leading and I genuinely think we would never have heard the end of it if he'd won. I suspect in terms of correct result predictions you two were way ahead of the pack.

well done Del...

I got 28, which is pretty respectable by my recent standards!

There's a lot of luck involved to be honest. I was down to TWO vcash at one point, with 1000 staked on the 'unlikely' event of Chile beating Spain...

Later on, I was very lucky not to get wiped out, when I went all in on Holland to beat Mexico. Holland were 1-0 with about a minute to go!
