World Cup Fantasy Football

Post by so lacklustre »

I just signed up - but it looks to be a very slim field. In fact just the two of us.

I'm in.
My team's called Miracle Men :-)
(this can hardly be said about Polish team who lost 0-6 to Spain tonight)

If you're wondering what kkskalisz is (my name as "manager"), I simply did not know what "screen name" was supposed to mean at the time of registration, so I took the name of one of my hometown's football clubs.

Anyway, I hope to see more teams in our league very soon and let the battle commence ! :D

Not a bad game to start World Cup, but I did not like the vuvuzelas.
You just can't hear the reactions of the crowd - no cheering, no whistling, no sighing, just a constant buzz. Hope it's just the hosts' games.

confidential to Invisible Pole: at this moment, I adore you. Not that I don't like you the rest of the time, but today you're keeping me out of last place. At least temporarily. Hugs!

alas, it was never meant to be....

I just can't get the hang of these things. I *thought* I set my team, but apparently, I hit RANDOM or something. Next round, beware.
