Well my english is very bad and I'm sorry, but what you really do not understand?

Who agrees, to the contest, put's in a stick declaring it at time of signing his name for the final winner of the contest.

First leg : Must guess the final eight not later than February 23rd (it can also be changed, last one is the valid one)

Second leg : Must guess the final four not later than April 6th ( If only one winner from first leg, we take also the best runners up to go ahead but they have to add another cigar if they decide to continue )

Third leg : Must choose the final Champion, not later than April 27th and you get all the cigars.

All the partecipants will send on May 28th the cigars to the winner.

my apologies sir, If i'd taken the time to read I think I would have understood. basically You pick who goes through from the first round, second and then the final? I'm not trying to ruin your contest but what happens if we tie?

[Mr.Italy]

I believed it was already difficult to get to teh end, but yes if we tie we share the cigars and...... for doing it a bit more difficult we could :

- assign a number of points per leg guessed correctly.
- and assign a number of points for correctly guessing the aggregate score.
- so you must pick winners for each game and most points wins.

example:
Liverpool V Real I predict liverpool to win by an aggregate score of 3-1.

If Liverpool go through. I get 2 points
If I guess the correct aggregate score, I get 1 point. totaling 3 points.

person with the most points at end wins

But passage between 1st to 2nd and to 3rd leg is necessary mainly to get the winning team.

I hope it is clear, otherwise I renounce and hope somebody can build up something better.

Lampard won his appeal against the red card so he won't be missing any games. Probably a good outcome because while I do think it was a penalty (you can't go in on a 50/50 ball with your cleats up like) not severe enough to warrant a 3 game suspension.

The no call on Bosingwa and subsequent ruling is atrocious. Because the refs messed up, and even admitted to doing so, you can't punish the player later. Doesn't make an sense to me.

It was nice to see a card given out for diving and is something I would like to see catch on.. Even though I don't think he was actually diving that play, there were other times that game by him and others were it looked like it could have been called. I would love to see a certain Portuguese player who seems to have trouble keeping his footing around the penalty box be called for this.
