Eight Groups some of them contain absolute shite .Four Groups of Eight at least everybody has at least one live chance of reaching the Final .Unless England play up to their potential then its a one horse race .

I don't know anything about soccer so I'll have to trust you to devise fair groups. Maybe you could see how many want to play and then make the groups by ranking teams in accordance with the bookies odds or something like that?

Then we can only have 4 players.

On the basis of 4 players I would suggest you assign the letters A B C and D to each player (in alphabetical order of Christian names) i.e the letter A is assigned to the first player listed in said alphabetical order, etc... and rank the groups of teams from 1 to 4 ideally with group 1 containing the bookies favourite, group 2 containing the 2nd fav, group 3 the 3rd fav and group 4 the 4th fav.
The following lotto numbers are hereby deemed assigned to each letter:
A: 1 - 12
B: 13 - 24
C: 25 - 36
D: 37 - 48
Each player is then assigned a group of teams based on the order of numbers drawn in the next lotto draw i.e if the first number drawn is 13 Player B gets group 1, etc. In the unlikely event that no lotto numbers are drawn from 2 or more players' groups (A-D) the next lotto draw shall determine remaining allocations.

A better solution might have been to use the last numbers drawn in the daily ISEQ index.

That is how the Mafia made their money using the 'Numbers Racket' after prohibition was abolished
using the last 3 digits of the daily Dow Jones index, they offered $300 to a $1 stake to get the 3 right numbers.
Local governments soon saw their scam and how easy it was to make the coin, hence the Lotto !

It looks like a very open World Cup .but all the favs have flaws .Brazil have lost the Passion now that they are all zillionairs ,Germans have been infiltrated by Poles ,Spanish Hate each other and France have to much ethnic diversity to put on a united front .Cant see any team outside the big 4 winning unless Vlad rigs the games .Going to be interesting to see who the Rodent picks he will probably base his choice on which nation has the best Cricket or Darts team and that might not be a bad way to select .

There was a woman playing for China alright. PDC is open to both sexes, several women have competed over the years including Dita Headman and the once pretty Russian bird. Ireland put up a decent fight against Belgium, going down 5-4 in the end. Daryl Guerney played well for Norn Iron but playing with Dolan prove too much of a handicap to overcome.

I recon its the poorest world cup in years with only 4 contenders .Brazil on paper look good but there is a lot of politics and big business involved in Brazil football just look at who got the No 9 shirt lad from Man City and not the Liverpool striker ?Spain have the best Keeper which helps but overallnot a star studded side .Germans are douer but disiplined two good front men solid defence but not very creative .France look to have the best squad but a lot of diversity its known a lot of tension among the squad .Of the others Argentina are a one trick pony ,England are disfunctional ,Belgium always flatter to decieve .USA set a standerd of awfullness not seen before they couldnt beat a rag tag heap of shit at the Aviva .The betting is probably 1/3 one of the Big four to win .

In hindsight, it was not a great way to have groups instead of teams because now the first round of group games mean nothing to any of the participants as we all know that whoever qualifys from our groups will be our team in the knock-out stages, making the group games a bit of a bore.

There was a time when Iwould of lumped on .Iran have no chance of beating Spain if this was an international friendly played in Theran Spain would start about 1/33 but its played on a neutral ground and the quote is 1/6 .Only thing is if you went into Paddy and threw your Credit Card on the counter they would tell you to Fuck off .I remember when there were a few Independent bookie who would lay you and would hold the card and not take the cash until you lost .But that class of bookie is gone now its all about mugging the punter .

.....I remember when there were a few Independent bookie who would lay you and would hold the card and not take the cash until you lost .....

The reason the bookies did that was to avoid paying CC fees on winning bets.
Fer instance if a punter had a bet and it lost, it was simple the bookie charged his card after the selection lost and the bookie paid the CC fee.
If the bet was a winner, then the money was held 'On account' until such time as the client requested the funds be returned to his account.
The thinking being all the time was to avoid paying the bank CC fees.

Yea, I would agree the last round of group games will most likely have the most Red cards with teams already eliminated venting their frustrations on the field of play.

The count is still 1, and the bar is still at 4.5.

Can teams still get out of the group without winning a game, like what "Republic Of Ireland" done during the Charlton (Jack not Bobby) years?

That was just Luck as it fell fer us and the Dutch, to play out a 1-1 draw, knowing that England were a goal up on the Gypier's in the last group games and both us and the Dutch would qualify as second placed team and best 3rd placed team with the 1-1 draw.

Things have been updated a tad since then, but still if every game in a particular group ends in 0-0 draw or every group game ends in the same-score draw with no Red or Yellow cards, or an equal amount of Red and Yellow cards fer all teams, then it is down to the drawing of lots fer whom progresses.

This years criteria is;
https://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/Regulations/uefaorg/Regulations/01/87/54/21/1875421_DOWNLOAD.pdf (https://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/Regulations/uefaorg/Regulations/01/87/54/21/1875421_DOWNLOAD.pdf)

The ranking of each team in each group shall be determined as follows:

a)   greatest number of points obtained in all group matches;
b)   goal difference in all group matches;
c)   greatest number of goals scored in all group matches.

If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria,
their rankings shall be determined as follows:

d)   greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the
teams concerned;
e)   goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams
concerned;
f)   greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams
concerned;
g)   greater number of points obtained in the fair play conduct of the teams
based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches as follows:
yellow card:
minus 1 point.
         
indirect red card:
minus 3 points
(as a result of a second yellow card).

direct red card:
minus 4 points.

yellow card and direct red card:
minus 5 points.

Only one of the above deductions shall be applied to a player in a single
match;

h)   drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee
Title: Re: world cup sweepstakes
Post by: Belker on June 24, 2018, 08:54:50 am
Personally I think UEFA should have went further and added on;

If two or more teams are still equal on the basis of all the above criteria,
their rankings shall be determined in this order as follows:

Rule h); 'Time of Fastest Goal scored in the group (to include 2nd fastest goal scored if still equal, Etc.)' to qualify.

Rule i); 'Time of Fastest Direct Red card (following Yellow card) achieved' to be disqualified.

Rule j); 'Time of Fastest Direct Red card' to be disqualified.

Rule k); 'Time of Fastest Indirect Red Card (as a result of a second Yellow card), disqualified.

Rule l); 'Time of Fastest Yellow card achieved' disqualified.

And let the drawing of lots as Rule m) be the very, very last option.

not my type of market ken to random .You never know what instruction FIFA  give refs until a few games in .Its a market you could trade if you had an opinion .City index or one of those platforms might be offering . But for sport ill take overfor 50 .

Your On, that's a bet. Your on at 12 Red cards and over and I'm on at 11 and under fer a Nifty.
It's actually a very entertaining market, you have an interest in every match.

Or well at least ya had !
Count stands at 2 (after Germany) with 29 of the 64 games played.

When I chose my groups i went with safety first as in trying to give myself the best chance of reaching the finalEngland and Belgium were well positioned as they had what looked like on paper an easier route to the last eight .If Belgium dont flatter to decieve they are real contenders .England will come under pressure from the Sun and the Mirror the better they do.The Daily Mail will probably pick on their Black Players or Boris Johnston will claim winning the World Cup proves being British is being  Best and go for a Hard Brexit .

I reckon a 'Rag' will win this competition, neither Brazil nor France have really 'Lit up' the world stage.

I think that if'n Uruguay can overcome France than they could indeed go 'All the way'.
But I would hate to see that Fookin cannibal Suarez get a world cup winners medal.

Not for me. I'm not a soccer fan... but I read that even my winning team (Croatia) was robbed yesterday. Apparently they should have won on foot of a penalty during play. By all accounts Peter Schmeichel's young lad is a cheating cunt and the referee was corrupt as fuck.

Well as soon as I became the decent 15/8 Fav then all 3 of my teams were eliminated in the next Two days.
As soon as John M went 'Odds-on' Fav then his Two teams were both eliminated.
