UEFA Euro 2012 Last Man Standing (Round 5)

Nossmayo · 25 Jun 2012 at 11:43

It's looking increasingly likely we won't have a winner of this but we'll carry on anyway. It was always going to be an experiment and perhaps we'll just stick to the domestic league versions.

Sooooooooooooooooo. Guess I'll go for Germany then

mp260767 · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:02

i'll go for spain please.

Pigeon_Killer · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:07

Germany please.

If it's a tie after the final Nossmayo are they going to have to wait until 2016 to resume?

Nossmayo · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:14

If anyone remembers then yes, why not?!

sunny007 · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:23

Germany

I think for the final we should clear teams !

You're both going to be out of teams to select after this game so you'll be disqualified!

I think we should have a vote of everyone still in.

You're lucky you've already been knocked out of the sweepstake!

Totally forgot about the sweepstake !!!

I'm out of that

Shamikebab · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:41

Oh yeah I'd forgotten about that

Silent-Lucidity · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:52

I'll go for Spain please. Save Germany for the final

Portugal v Italy final now!

Lead_Head · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:54

If I pick Spain then I can't pick a team for the final, if I pick Portugal I can't pick a team for the final so I guess I'm out?

Nossmayo · 25 Jun 2012 at 13:18

Erm technically, yes.

Still might be worth selecting for this round.

The Pat · 25 Jun 2012 at 14:12

I'll take Spain please.

You're right, let's see how it pans out. Hopefully we'll have a winner!

I'm all for trying new ideas. I did wonder if we could introduce an FA Cup version next season but I'm not entirely convinced this format works. You certainly need to avoid selecting the stronger teams in the early rounds (as one or two alluded to in this edition).
