    Come to think of it if Spain loose tonight the 3rd & 4th prizes will be better than the 1st & 2nd 😛

    well done to Spain,

    having some Hollandese friends, i might have to cheer on the carrotts, that’ll probably be the death of their chances if i do though!

    i just want to see a good clean game now to be honest, not overly worried who wins as both teams haave done well and exceeded expecations (of other countries) so good luck to the both of them!

    and then there were ‘2’

    Good game last night, Spain were on fire in the second half, and wouldn’t surprise me if they went on to win.
    I can’t believe I have been saying a Spain v Holland final all along…:)

    Nice to see there will be a new winner as neither team has won the WC.

    What does the octopus say for the final G? then can it choose me some lottery numbers…..

    Game on Kev 😀 will be a good game although finals are usually dull, hopefully both teams will go all out to win

    Spain did to Germany what I thought the Dutch would do……..but I don’t think Spain will win unless they find their scoring boots, just not incisive enough I think. Young Cruz could have so easily ended the Spanish dream in the second half. Fascinating duel though. Germany where aiming to have this team ready by 2012 which is scary! The European Championships will be some pie shoot!

    I bet you all weren’t so sure when Spain lost their first game 😕

    Anyways… It’s been a good bit of fun and the prizes are:

    1st place is a cheque for £50 from UKSB and a hand painted sign with the winners slogan/name on, from across the pond from our lovely Jillbeans.

    2nd Place is £50 worth of consumables from ‘Grafityp’

    3rd place a cheque for £25 from UKSB.

    Many thanks to Rob, Jill and Nigel for the donations.

    ”COME ON SPAIN” but I really want Holland to win, long over due.

    yeah, the first half was awful! 😕 Listening to the BBC commentary – in particular Alan hanson, I must have missed something throughout this tournament because according to him Spain played fantastic football throughout and were better than anyone else. OK, they won, but up until the semis Germany were bar far playing better. Or am I missing something? 😮

    I’m the man 😀
    Not a good game, usual for the final. Watching the Dutch in the first half was like watching Argentina in the 1990 Final against the Germans….should have had 3 red cards.

    The German and Uruguay game for 3rd place should have been the final..great game.

    Any way results are:

    1st: Spain.. Me 😀 The £50 I will donate to ‘Andrew Boyle’s Snail Trail’ charities. But I will have and treasure the sign from Jill.

    2nd: Netherlands..Kevin Flowers, £50 of Grafityp consumables

    3rd: Germany..Warren Beard, £25 cheque

    4th: Uruguay..Hugh Potter..I will give Hugh £25 worth of digi print,(didn’t really have a 4th prize Hugh so a small conselation)

    Again thanks for the donations.

    As John says, Euro 2012 next…can’t wait…who fancies a sweepstake 😀

    Well Done Martin, deserved win for Spain…..dunno what the Dutch where at….plenty of football in them and they choose to play like that! Still think that Spain are not prolific enough at goalscoring….they seem to need a 100 chances to get one goal.
    Roll on Euro 2012 …..justice for the Irish! 😀

    Thats a very Kind gesture Martin, thank you! I wasn’t expecting anything to be fair but, thanks!

    I was disappointed to see Netherlands lose, having Hollandaise friends, I was supporting them once Uruguay went out, i missed the first 65 mins and, with it -from seeing the highlights- most of the naughty stuff.

    in hindsight, I don’t think Netherlands deserved it, not playing like that. the Spanish weren’t exactly innocent mind!

    the ref… pretty good though i did think he missed a few fairly obvious fouls / made some poor decisions, i guess it’ll always be like that!

    I so wish that football would adopt the same "3rd official" and instant replays on important decisions as in rugby. 10 min sin bins for divers and those committing deliberate fouls etc, i’m sure it would make for a much more enjoyable game. I spent the last half hour swearing and shouting at the tv, mainly in disgust at the way the players from both sides argued with various decisions. I really wish i could see beyond all the messy stuff as i used to enjoy watching football!

    anyways, well done Spain and, Well done Martin for the win!
