World cup sweep stake

    Found 20 quid today. Normally any money i find goes into a charity box but as somebody who's a longtime lurker i thought we could have a bit of fun with it. I propose doing a sweep stake for world cup. You enter your name and you get a random team. So obviously the first 32 people to respond will get in. Out of fairness i wont take a team. Winner can have the cash or pick the charity. I'll update regularly after each day's match's. Hope this is ok with the mod's if not please lock and accept apologies. So get your names in and best of luck. Please indicate in your thread if you want in.
