You go me on the alarm clock
Could be a good shout

I’m putting my money on Peru (along with many others! )

I’m hoping they will set the world alight !!
Yeah maybe take my post with a pinch of salt after they got battered by Belgium last night :)

I work with a guy from Peru, he doesn't think they'll do much

I quite fancy Poland, Peru, Egypt, Iran, Mexico to do better than the bookies suggest

But, generally, I’m the worlds worst football gambler
You probably need a new hobby ;)

146 goals so far according to FIFA stats. 4 quarter finals, 2 semi finals, 1 playoff and 1 final - so that means 8 more games to go and we'd need 25 goals to reach the 171 that would have paid out on the total goals bet, so a little more than 3 goals a game on average.

Not impossible but still a bit of a long shot I'd say.

157 goals, 15 needed from last four games to create a new record. Probably unlikely, would need early goals in the semi's I think.

Now safely converted to HF68
I have 161 in the office prediction need a couple of 0-0 draws to share the pot - however, if France Win the final I take the overall predictions pot.
Now easier for me to support France after last nights result :(

I note it’s 5/2 for 170+ World Cup goals (including those scored in extra time)

What does anyone think - that’s only just over 2.5 per game

Last world cup there were 169 goals (which will be what will happen this year if i back 170+ no doubt!)
Total goals in 2018: 169......... :eek:

You couldn't make it up.
