Who did you get in the sweeps?

by Royal Ginger » 12 Jun 2014 11:10

I'm in three sweeps, pulled Switzerland twice and South Korea once. I win on one of my Swiss teams if:

-Win outright
-Most goals scored (by end of groups)
-Most goals conceded (by end of groups)
-Most yellow cards (by end of groups)
-Earliest red card
-Earliest own-goal

Seeing as I've doubled up on Switzerland I've got on board with it and decorated my office

Don't know. We did a sealed envelope sweep to be opened when the 4 semi final teams are known.

Currently overseeing an absolute shambles of a sweep. All my fault really - added an auction option for the remaining 4 teams and letting trades happen. This will not end well.

Croatia will play good football and probably implode in a fury of Balkan nonsense.

Spain and Netherlands at work.

Not sure what my cricket club teams are as he won't tell me until I pay. Spain and Argentina are both left out of the possible 3 I can get.
