Nice one. I'm in.

I'm in like Flynn!

Hopefully for this one we can count on the English boardies again. I remember how none of them participated in the Euro 2008 fantasy game after England failed to qualify (losers! :D).


Oh, and Ireland should've been there.

I might join this.

I'm in. can't wait. never really got the beauty of this game until this year watching the Premier League every week for the last two months or so.
I'd watch a championship game here and there and the Olympics. Now I'm
really excited.

44 years and waiting hopefully we make it at least 48 years for you...:)

good stuff. kep em coming guys!

Can I get Slovakia?

I'm oficially in now.

man.... football. its just a ball. why do they have to kick it?

why cant they just calm down and go sit down and chill the fuck out?

its just one of those things id like to ruin for everyone else if i could.

i do like to play it. but to watch it... i couldnt do that. i understand some people enjoy it. dont get all "OH BUT WE ENJOY IT YOU DICK!" on me, im not going to take it away from you. its just these people that are all like "we beat you the other night!" what do you mean we you fuck? it wasn't you, it was this team you like, you had nothing to do with it. get some perspective on your life. you look like something has gone wrong in your brain and you're gonna bash your head off a brick wall until you die if you can't find some other way to get out all your frustration. i dont trust people like that, they seem like the type that want to reintroduce public hanging and would beat you up for any reason they could find. these hardcore football fans, like were does it all go so very wrong that you get obsessed with ball kickers on a field. let it go, have a cup of tea. relax. your town/country is shit. things aren't going to go well for you if they put the ball in the net more. you won't get a job or win the lottery, you will still be making these massive errors in your worldview that can only lead to failure.

^^chillax, dude.
let it go, have a cup of tea. relax.

i was.

totally.

its possible to say things like that and be relaxed.

if wasn't so relaxed i'd find being told to relax like that so annoying i'd want to rip out your lungs and wear them as a little waistcoat. but i'm so relaxed the thought didn't cross my mind.

see.

im totally relaxed.

totally.

smooth.

yeeeah...

now we are both relaxed douches.

we don't do coke because we are so relaxed. we only do weed.

just signed up!

Bring it on, Pauliebee. No French players allowed.

oh is this about football??

like, touchdowns, tackles and all that?

When's the deadline for joining? I'm not sure about it still.

But we are very much a part of the team without us buying seats at the stadium, jersey paying for stadiums with our tax dollars and watching on the telly so they can sell advertising minutes, there is no teams hence no games. While I'm not up for bring back public hangings I wouldn't mind seeing a few folks being put in pillories and sacked with rotten tomatoes. ;^)

Excellent! I'm in ('Ecclesiasticus').

I AM IN!

You reminded me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN1WN0YMWZU

Excellent.

Australia all the way this year... although we do have Germany very first round.

Please, if you touch yourself down while watching football, just keep it to yourself...jay?

great great GREAT very moving ESPN thing where they catch up with people who scored goals in the world cup finals matches, from 1950's to present.
gets me all riled up and emotional and ready for this Mundial

East Ruritania has joined!

Is it OK if I bring in some friends, Paul?
I promise they're bad. But then again, history showed bad French people could easily beat good Irishmen.

I'm asking Paul, but I'll take everyone's answer too.

bring em on bertrand......its open to allcomers! either here on yr facebook or in realityland! more the merrier!

sure why not after all there are 32 teams

the site is now open for players to pick the teams. game on as they say.

so how exactly does this work?

i haven't registered yet, but usually you get a certain budget to pick 11 players plus 3-4 substites. then you field 11 of them and each round you'll get awarded points for succesful actions (goals, assists, clean sheets, etc) and deducted points for yellow/red cards, penalty misses, etc.

excellent.

gonna go do this

Fancy picking French players?
Well...

Keeper will be Lloris, who's really good, but the defense is weak; the basic defense will be Sagna-Gallas-Abidal-Evra; most likely to enter the game at the back is Squillacci.
Midfield : Toulalan and Ribéry will most certainly play every game; the former hardly scores, he's a holding midfielder; with them Malouda and Gourcuff. Sub likely to join the party : Diaby.
Strike force : Henry will be used as a substitute; Anelka ain't particularly happy up front on his own and has been used there in the last three games; subs : Gignac, who will shoot as often as he can, I like him, yet he hasn't had a great season compared to 2008-2009.
I'd go with Cissé, he relishes being up front scoring tons of goals, but our beloved Domenech might not throw him in until the 80th minute.

This being said, I'd have a look at Uruguay and Mexico too...

I've got Jonathan Spector in my defence. I'm screwed!

erm


NO!!!!!!!!!

What do you mean, no?
I'm not gonna pick any of them myself (until the final, when les Bleus beat whoever's not injury ravaged) but I'd have liked some of you to pick the right ones.
I made an effort and chose some English players and US ones out of politeness (I hope both teams go through). For the same reason, I looked for Irish players too but I couldn't seem to find any.

Well, you may as well forget all my genuine tips for the stubborn light-headed who might believe France's way to the second round is as easy as Italy's : Domenech, discovering his plans were not working is expected to change everything one more time 6 days before the first game.
Too bad, France had played a different football. With similar results.
Now, everything's up to astrology as far as who's to start and who's on the bench... Add to that that the team hasn't trained for two days now...
Good way to avoid injuries...

Ok....
joined. I hope nobody minds I'm doing this together with Spiritual Amnesia.
We're both not really up to date in the football world,
is Oliver Kahn still around ?
:-)

Im doing the Guardian one.

My secret weapon is Greece's goalkeeper and Lee from South Korea.

yeah, sorry bertrand! i failed to add ":D" to my last comment..but im sure you got the jist of it. ive actually no french players in yet but im sure some will enter the fray at some point.. i am one of the few irish that has "let go" of the situation!

As a beginner I'm a little unsure about in game substitutions? If I read this correctly if player A plays on Monday and nets me 2 points but player B hasn't played yet his first game is say Thursday I can chance loosing the 2 points by putting player B on the pitch hopping he'll give me more than the 2 points that player A gave me. If player A is DNP coach's decision can I substitute for him?

If the premiership fantasy league was anything to go by, we're all best advised to copy everything Bertrand does
