I have given the teams a random number again so looking at previous posts will be of no benefit in trying to pick a tournament favourite.

First come first served, happy bidding!

I'd be happy to take on an assistant.
Just a few criteria for hopeful applicants:
  • Must be able to pour a good glass of beer
  • Must not answer back
  • Must laugh at all my jokes
  • Must not complain about working conditions
  • Must keep my ego inflated
  • Must not talk about me behind my back
  • Must enjoy being shouted at
  • Must not have any bad habits
  • Must call me sir, captain or 'o' great and wise master
  • Must not ask for a pay rise
  • Must be able to iron my shirts and trousers without leaving tram lines
  • Must not starch my pants
  • Must take the fall for any mistakes
  • Must not take any of the limelight
etc.

It's just to see who you'll be sharing a team with, your Manager needs your support.

Come on Ladies and Gents...eyes down.

Pick a number, any number, 1 to 32.

Look into my eyes, look into my eyes, the eyes, the eyes, not around the eyes, don't look around the eyes, look into my eyes. You're under!

You did not pick number 1 - Brazil

15 or 13? It could make all the difference.

Ah maaaaaaan, I just can't decide between the two. Ok, can you give them letters - like A and B and then I can choose the letter and you can tell me which number it relates to? Deal? Or no Deal? Lol
