What's the noise in the stadium that won't stop ?

I wish all footy markets traded like the WC. I don't think I was trading footy at the last WC.

2 games in and the atmos is pretty awful. Qatari's (or whoever is in the stadiums) just sit silently unless there's a moment of excitement.
So I reckon the weird sound is a mix of the Senegal ultra's and a general hubub of muttering about the mundane things in life.
Or perhaps it's the aircon. :-) Does sound a bit like the aircon on the Mars station in Total recall. Now there's a reference I expect no-one to get.

They're not likely to be singing pop songs. :)

Match started off promising. I'm getting on with some coding until a goal's scored.

Are you all trading these WC matches manually or leaving it to your bots while you enjoy the match?

Most mine is manual/servant trading in the pre off markets, but if I do anything in-play it's always manual as well and never on any of our 4 nations

The fifa e-ticket system failed so thousands of England fans couldn’t get into the stadium.

I forgot to cancel a £2 bet on Iran to win the WC in the 900s. I'm now hoping they beat Wales. :lol:

They got in eventually. Don't know how many goals they missed or whether they'll get a refund.

2 iconic anthems, but Wales aced it. Wonderful passion.

I watch a fair bit of MLS football but there's not a single name I recognise in the USA team.

Was thinking how to call USA v Wales and then realised its a nation of 330 million v 3 million.
