Eh? I've submitted for every single one. Well the form accepted the submissions, so that's a bit odd.

 

[Matty]

One sec I'll check, but your name never came up on them, although I did have two submissions with no name for that day..

 

[Carbonox]

Right, why weren't these forms available in the midday when I usually complete them to avoid forgetting later on? 👎

 

[Akmuq]

Pretty sure I made my picks last night, if not, I just done them again.

 

[funkyDucks]

By my calculations, I am still in contention. Providing others slip up and I perform flawlessly.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

brilliant save by casillas!!

 

[Spacegoat]

Dropped to 4th.

It was up at midnight your time last night, only got put up on OP today because my laptop decided to shut down and not come back on.

Pretty sure I made my picks last night, if not, I just done them again.

I'll find out now.

Any news on my missing submission? Did the latest one register?

 

[Matty]

I can't confirm you sent it, although I believe you. Not sure what to do to be honest. Maybe you forgot to put your name in as I received 2 blank submissions.
Tables up at sometime later.

It wouldn't have been that because I forgot to put my name in once and it wouldn't let me submit.

 

[Lizard]

England and France again.

^This. I've done that by accident and it won't let me continue. I've submitted to every match so if it hasn't appeared then there's not a lot I can do. I'm not even sure which matches they were that are missing.

It's not a problem, I'll just drop out for now. It'll be interesting who wins this though.

 

[Spacegoat]

England and France again.

Yep, same for me as well 👍

 

[Carbonox]

France and England, boring choices but best odds

Same here but I've got a feeling Sweden will beat France!

 

[Jacob]

Going the alternative way...

Ukraine and Sweden.

Ukraine and Sweden.

Confidence, you have. Wrong, but still noble to support your own country.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

France and england...cant see anyone else winning!...

 

[Ross]

If France and England both win, who will be top because the head-to-head was 1-1 and to my knowledge, it doesn't go on goal difference after that.

Well iv just checked the group in the paper, france are top because they have a goal diff of +2 englands is +1, so i think it depends on how much both teams win by (if they win!) if they both win 1-0 say, then france will finish top, but if england win and the score more than france then obviously they will finish top...but i havnt got a clue what happens if england win by two and france by one?....

My 300th post!!!!

At least it isn't confusing!

Sounds awfully confusing. Can't they just do it on GD and then GS
Congrats by the way.

If England score 2 and France score 1 it goes to whoever had the highest FIFA ranking. Expect the tables up by around 6:30 or before.

No i dont think FIFA will do that! that doesnt sound very fair..england are 6 or 7th in the rankings and france are 14th, so if that were to happen then it wouldnt be fair on france at all!!

I think itll probably go down to goals scored..

 

[NINE_HUNDRED]

That is how they do it, it's a bit strange but it's how it's done. So yes, England would go through.

An example from last night. Italy were 1-0 up, and Croatia were 0-0 with Spain.

Croatia had +2 goal difference and Italy +1. They drew with each other so that was the first deciding factor put out. So then they went to FIFA Rankings. If the games had finished Italy 1-0 win, Croatia 0-0 with Spain. Croatia would have had +2 to Italys +1 but gone home anyway.

 

[TyrrellRacing]

This is how it's determined who goes through.

I agree, the progression process is confusing and quite poor.

 

[mattythedog]

It's better than flipping a coin though.
