I just can't buy a good prediction lately. Started out 12th after the first 3 games, now I'm 40th. All I've needed is for one of the teams to score one more goal near the end, but they never do. Or in one game, I needed the score to stay the same for the last 10 minutes but one team scored another.

Don't worry about it. Had been in top couple of places getting good results from the off. Then I changed Ireland draw to Sweden win and changed Italy 2-0 win to them losing. Lost me 6 points and not got a point since :D

I too had Ireland to draw 1-1 but changed it later. :(
I'm getting far too many noughts in my totals at the moment. It's harder to predict than the usual League One Prediction League!

I thought it was easy until a couple of days ago. Have changed my mind now :D

I entered all my predictions before the first game and they were based on each team's records in qualifying. I've tried to resist the temptation to change them since. I think it's the referees decisions that are introducing the unpredictability as much as the teams ability.

I left that last one alone to what I put before the games started. Another correct result and back up to 2nd :)

Have changed the France result though :D

It didn't last. 1 point above you. Changed the result to the right one for once :)

Love the France group. 11 out of 12 points in it :D

There are 2 tables. 1st in 1 and 3rd in the other :D

Yer, it's a bit odd, the 'Ranking List' > 'Group Matches' table seems to only count the results from groups A to D whereas the 'Final Rounds' table considers all groups.

And of course I haven't actually put any money on all these correct scores I've fluked... :facepalm:

I'm not sure what it's playing at, I'll work it out manually at the end. Can't see how it will work for knockout :(

You was right though. 1 point ahead of me :)

Thought I had a bad run. No points for a couple of days. Couldn't see all the 0 points. They were on the other table :D

FFS can't believe it. Nearly had my biggest odds winner on a single there. Had McAuley to score NI to win 1-0 160/1. The second goal came after 95:56 4;seconds to go. Only had 50p on it but would have been £80.50 back.

Ok it's official. I am pathetic at prediction. One result exactly right so far, 42nd out of 75. Basically you can be pretty certain that my predictions will be wrong. Everyone should look at my predictions and then make sure they choose some other result.

Hanging on at 31st out of 75. Only person in the top 35 to have got just one result correct. Had Spain winning 2-0, so they had to win 3-0.

No picked up a single point from group F yet!
Has somebody forgot to put the scores in for the last 2 group A matches btw?
They still seem to be showing as unplayed to me...

The fixtures come from a 3rd party server automatically, so I have no control over them :(
