You can only post one pic per message - and it will always appear above the text of your message, whichever order you browse/type in.

So - rules are there are no rules, no insider footballer info needed - it's just who you think will win, lose or draw - like Paul the octopus in the last World Cup - this is using the brilliance of gransnetters (and CariGransnet's goldfish - named Goldie, of course) to predict who will win the World Cup.
Every morning we post the fixtures for that day for you to post your predictions.
You'll get a point for each correct prediction (win, lose or draw) and for those with a competitive streak, there will be a bonus points option suggested for the day, so you 'fancy' up your entry <ooh>
Every morning we will update our leaderboard, however you're more than welcome to join in at whatever stage. Obviously there's less chance of winning if you join in half-way, unless you're a pro and take part in the bonus rounds!
There will be a mystery prize for the gransnetters with the most points at the end of the World Cup (13 July).
Let the games commence! Post below if you'll be taking part from Thursday.

" Didn't understand the brief because my brain was slow,
So now I've got to write a poem about bloomin' Mexico!!!"
" KatGransnet said I should write again,
This time about Algeria.
Think I'll turn my laptop off
and pretend I didn't hear ya!"

As I am rubbish at the score predictions I will just say Belgium, Brazil and Russia to win!!
" I'm off to the cafe for a Belgian Bun and some coffee from Brazil,
Hurry up I've got to Russia cos the cafe's at the top of the hill!!"
Genius! This made me chuckle
You'll need to post another two poems though, for the other two points! (poem mentioning a country for each fixture)
Belgium v Algeria - a draw
Brazil to win
Russia to win
Does a limerick count as a poem?
There was a young lady from Korea
Who wanted to give her team a big cheer
But when it came to the match
Their goalie couldn't catch
And all that was left was a tear

Belguim win

I really can't write poems,
It's never been a skill .
To find a word that rhymes with Algeria
Is throwing me into fits of hysteria .....
I'd been looking forward to that game all day; was so disappointed with the way Portugal played . Fell asleep watching Argentina last night [found that a bit boring as well].
After the first match I feel like I've just eaten a dozen yogurts - totally Mullered!
