Just a reminder that the Copa America final is starting in an hour and a half, Argentina v Brazil.

Easy to forget since nobody cares :lol:
I was just about to have a rant about that match - no flipping video!!

FFS, the match was on BBC2. Why wasn't it labelled on the Betfair site?

Great to see Messi get his hands on an international trophy but the game itself was a tough watch. Very stop start, players from both teams constantly trying to con the ref who to his credit handled it pretty well. Not a great spectacle though.

If this happens there's no point bothering with qualifying at all

My first thought is I think I'd struggle to even name 32 European countries!

I'm really hoping Venezuela hasn't been hit by a meteorite. Games there been suspended for 15 mins at least now and all sites are stuck on the same minute. Fortunately I'd just hedged my position before the world went dark!

Well, stayed suspended from about the 60th minute through to the death.

Chicken or the egg?

Apparently Youri Tielemans is pushing for a move to Liverpool :)

That's according to Belgian media... who are quoting English media...... who themselves are quoting Belgian media..... :?

It's taken me a long time to figure it out but pre-match bets with the 'keep' persistence, keep even when a goal's been scored. :D

Using Poisson Distribution, two teams both need an expectancy of 0.88 goals to have chances equal to the draw, but it happens sometimes. :)

First time I've know a market to go in-play and remain suspended!

Does the suspend wanker feel guilty when he wakes up from a half-hour nap, or does he not give a shit?
