Russia 2018 Predictions Game - Semi-Final Update!

(Heavy sigh)....Hiya, chaps. Well, most of us were a lot happier earlier in the week than we are now. I came wheeling into work on my bike Wednesday morning with Baddiel and Skinner's anthem in my earbuds. Ah well...I'm here with a heavy heart to update our humble predictions game.

This time, it's six points for each of the winning sides who will appear in the Final on Sunday. Only three of us - Bee's Knees, Red Dragon and Gooner - chose France to appear in the final and none of us picked Croatia, so those three have taken a giant leap up the tables. So, going into the final round, the game has tightened up to two points between yours truly and Bee's Knees.

So what's left?

* 8 points for the Golden Boot
* 8 points for the MVP (Golden Ball)
* 2 points for scorer of the wining goal on Sunday
* 1 point for the first manager sacked in the pool

Here are the current standings:

1. Blue Devil - 65 points
2. The Bee's Knees - 63 pts
3. Red Dragon - 62 pts
4. Someone Said - 58 pts
5. Red Devil 1FCK - 57 pts
6. Man United Rules - 55 pts
7. The Saint - 53 pts
-   Swansong - 53 pts
9. West Ham Rising - 49 pts
10. Gooner71 - 46 pts
-   United We Stand - 46 pts
