2006 FIFA World Cup - outright winner

With the leagues now coming to a close thought I'd get this up early.

Betting will stay open until just before the first game between Costa Rica and Germany on June 9 and will pay out after the final on July 9.

I'll update the adds as we get closer to the tournament - and may add some props if people make some suggestions of what they may want.

And for those of you that are soccer fans and are planning to follow the World Cup, here's an electronic wallchart for you - if you've got Excel.

Just type in the score of each game and the tables will update automatically.

Right click and save as please.

I'd like to take that Bet. Only at your convenience though.

Thanks.

I might have to quadruple England's odds depending on the nature of Rooney's injury.

I've gotta put a sympathy bet on for the Aussies.

CM can that bet be for them making it out of the prelim round rather than win it?

Updated odds. With Wayne Rooney almost certainly ruled out of the tournament with broken foot, England have drifted out to 10/1.

Ive laid quite a heavy bet on Brazil, followed by a smaller one on England (couldnt resist at 10/1), and an even smaller side-bet on Germany.

I'll probably be penniless by the end of it, but oh well..
