Fantasy Euro 2008

[Bovril 219]

I''m slowly moving up the table...the board have laid out a 3-week plan for me in which I am expected to achieve a respectable position on the first page...

Good old wesley sneijder got me 9 points but after all his hard work i think ribery deserved more then 1 point, but come on Torres and mellberg!

Van Nistelrooy played immense and hardly got any points, and I think Pirlo has been Italys best player - same pointswise. I feel robbed!, moving down the table! Cmon Torres, Mellberg and the Greek defender that reads something like Kyrgiakos.

Points wise The greeks have been the biggest dissapointment for me so far,for defending champions they are starting to look like a flash in the pan a bit like Denmark when they won back in the 90s.

As for the world cup finalists,Italy and France? Well i expected them to cancel each other out but if romania spring an upset against the dutch, both could be sent packing!

I cocked mine up big time. I had Oojier in defence and wanted to replace him with one of the Dutch midfielders or strikers. So i put a random Pole in his place forgetting that i''d already made 2 transfers. That means I''m now stuck with a Polish defender and no Dutch oplayers in my team, D''OH!!!!!!!

[/quote]Yep because after that there''s few games and players playing and the scores will be tight. I''m not top now though. Think I''m 1 point in 2nd.

russia to go through - as many wont have same player as me

turkey go far - also stops croatia - who everyone prob go krancjar

germany beat portgual - as everyone will have ronaldo when, several will have poldoski, gomez or ballack instead of klose

I think I need a miracle now slipped to 32nd.

[FASTasHUCK 0]

I''m 7th!!! one more place and it will be on par where Norwich finish next season ;)

[Buncey 1]

Considering that the euro''s are now over and that there is 5,000 investment threads, I''d like to bump this.

[Desi Rascall 0]

slipped from 4th to finish 9th, due to the injury to villa.

did quite well considering how badly my french midfielders fared and failing to pick a russian for the second phase (i left for my hols before the group stages were completed )
