I will be placing a £10 correct score bet on every match in the world cup, half of any profits will go towards a new flag or whatever B&A decides to do with it. How it will work, I will ask for peoples predictions on every match and the one with the most votes will have the tenner riding on it!! All bets will be placed on betfair, lets see if we can win some money!! So to start I would like peoples predictions for the first two matches tomorrow, I will include my predictions' South Africa 1 Mexico 2 Uraguay 1 France 1

nice gesture i think both games will be 1-1 The way I look at it, the combined brains of B&A should stand a better chance than me on my own, so every ones a winner (hopefully)

Well, as I say any profits. Not sure how to explain in better. Obviously I will be deducting any stakes that I make other wise it will cost me about £500!!! The outcome will either be we win some money of which half will be given to the B&A or I will lose money.

So any profits at the end of the tournament, as opposed to any profits on a daily basis, or even match-by-match basis?

Bets have been Placed!!
5 people went for SA V Mexico to end 1-1 so that has a £10 4 people went for France to win 2-1 so that also has £10
The current bank stands at - £20

I was thinking of doing the next games by way of a poll, for example usa v england as the title, then giving the options 1-0,2-0,3-0,2-1,3-1,3-2,0-0,1-1,2-2,3-3,0-1,0-2,0-3,1-2,2-3.
Hiding the poll till people vote then the one with the most votes gets the tenner, Im not sure if it would be possible with the amount of options, and secondly I would not have the first idea how to do it!!
Any suggestions would be appreciated

might be a good idea if you keep this thread running
you can alter the thread description if need be by modifying the first post (eg to announce new preductions are required etc)
