I am shamelessly nicking this off the Liverpool board....oh the irony....specifically scouse ban monkey in chief Gerrez. How it works The first 32 posters to respond to this post with the word "whammers!" will be assigned a no. - this is only open to Swansea and Cardiff posters (exceptions will be made for regular contributors to this board I've scratched my head and cranked the old brain into gear but I haven't yet figured out an open and transparent way to make the draw (I'm sure there is a way but thinking about it has resulted in steam rising from the top of my head....any assistance would be greatly appreciated). In the event of nobody coming up with a better system I will manually make the draw myself (using little plastic kinder eggs!)...you would just have to trust me....maybe Ivor would be better at this! The draw will take place at 10pm on the evening that the 32 slots have been taken. Good luck and hopefully this thread will be the hub of all World Cup related banter.

Whammers! google football draw or something, there are many options how to do it if room pls add the rest of the gang if not so be it
Whammers! I predict that Russia will be excluded form the world cup. Denmark will enter the tournament (as the 9# best placed runner up), and will repeat the success by beating Brazil in the WC-final! What are the odds?
Thanks for that Musty! Had a look but am too thick (/sleep deprived) to work it out...will just do a draw. You can trust that I am that sad that I will do it properly, no cheating...will be just like me and my mate's subbuteo tournaments from yesteryear (yes, we even did a draw).
