Analyse this – Euroguff Day 23
No games today, so in Test Match Special stylee, I shall guff on about something tangential whilst alternating between an unfathomably posh voice and a heavily accented one.
Here at Prediction Towers we love bit of nerdery, so away with anecdotes about cake, pigeons or passing buses, here’s a trip into the Euroguff analytics.
Left to my own devices
42% of predictors used a mobile phone to get their hands on Euroguff news. That over-indexes against the expected platform distribution.
Truly an international event
Visitors from fifteen countries have had their passports stamped with the Euroguff logo. I am particular intrigued to see that the game was accessed once from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Social media
62% of visits came via social referral, with Twitter being eight times more potent than facebook
– Mark Zuckerberg buying a commemorative plate for $1bn, yesterday
Who’s the Linux user!?
Bill Gates will not be happy that 78% of visits come from Euroguffers rocking Apple operating systems. Just 29% from Windows and there was one sweaty boffin using Linux lentilware.
– Bill Gates with the new Microsoft Surface tablet, yesterday

Well done Balotelli
Are Italy peaking at the right moment?
Spain v Italy – the Final
How Euroguffers see it. Not many had the Italians getting all the way to the final.
- Spain: 37% to win the final and 31% to lose the final
- Italy: 2% to win the final and 3% to lose the final

Mano-a-mano – Euroguff day 20
NEW GIMMICK – Euroguff Quiz!
As every 1940s public schoolboy knows, the Iberian Peninsula is located in the extreme southwest of Europe and includes the modern-day sovereign states of Spain, Portugal and Andorra, as well as the British Overseas Territory Gambling Capital of Gibraltar.
As such, Iberia is the westernmost of the three major southern European peninsulas. But what are the other two? Answer at the end of this post.
Semi Final 1: Spain v Portugal
29% of Euroguffers have Spain losing in the semi finals and 14% have Portugal going out tonight. Let's hope they play fair. We don't want to see anyone jamon it up.
??- Ronaldo, with another new hairstyle, yesterday
Secrets of a WINNER
Paulo Di Harringtonio, currently leader of the pack (but not in that way) shares his prediction methodology. Paulo, an IT whizz-boffin linked up an authentic WWII Enigma machine to a ZX81 and a Microsoft Zune to compute all the permutations and spill out his match predictions.

Congratulations to Euroguffer Lorem Ipsum (@JonDavie) and wife Amanda. Jon may be languishing in 63rd position, but he is officially top of the world after fathering a small child in the early hours of yesterday morning.??
By the grace of God, the world's newest Scouser arrived at 4.30am Monday morning, thus avoiding England's penalty exit being his first experience of the world.

Your favourite football cliches
"It's a game of two halves" was particularly popular:
| Andy Grey | Ron Atkinson on Chile's options: "Chile have three options ??? they could win or they could lose. It???s up to them, the tide is in their court now." |
| DK Willy | In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol – it was the worst 20 minutes of my life |
| Tim Henman | "Players lose you games, not tactics. There's so much crap talked about tactics by people who barely know how to win at dominoes."?? – HRH Brian Clough |
| 2012sheds | gave it 110% |
| Dario Made-the-Gradi | You just can't do that at this level! |
| Bayer Neverlusen | "Rome wasn't built in a day. But I wasn't on that particuar job." |
| Roy Hodgson | Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. I'm very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that. |
| Sepp Bladder | The world cup – truly an international event |
| El Pringle | Interesting, very interesting. |
| Mike Bassett | I'm not getting ahead of myself. I'm just taking it one tie-breaker at a time. |

| Scotty McNasty | For a big lad, he's good with his feet |
| Steve Mclaren | If football was meant to be played in the clouds, he'd have put grass up there. |
| Ronaldo McDonald?? | "Well, either side could win it, or it could be a draw." Ron Atkinson Or anything by Ron, hilarious :)?? |
| Don revie | Dirty Leeds |
| Jigsaw (goes to pieces in the box) | The most important thing is that we got the three points (Wayne Bridge aka Trigger as Chelsea beat Arsenal in the Carling Cup Final) |
| Earsane Wanger | It's a game of 2 halves innit? |
| Tom Laidlaw | You don't win games without scoring goals. |
| Toy Dodgson | It's balls in the back of the net that count…. |
| Brown Fox | I AM NOT A WHEELER DEALER. |
| Harry Redface | Eeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaauuuuuuhhhhhhhhhaaaaawwwwwwwwww…Unbelievable!!!!! (Gary Neville – Torres Goal / Semi final Champion's League) |

| Canary | Its a gmae of 2 halves |
| Soccer Sage | The team that scores the most points will win. |
| Yankee's Spankers | two world wars and one world cup, doodah, doodah |
| Bill Shankly | Not so much a cliche, more the best fan shout I've ever heard. At CPFC, Alan Pinkney was having a shocker. The shout went up "Pinkney, you're so shite they should take you off and bring on Perkney!!" |
| Gazza | If Everton were playing at the bottom of the garden, I'd pull the curtains. |
| Paulo Di Harringtonio | "Sh*t – did you see that?" – Alan Partridge |
| Mozzer | Alex Ferguson "Football. Bloody hell!" |
| Hansi Mueller | after the match is before the match |
| Vuvuzela???? | Andi M??ller: Mailand oder Madrid – Hauptsache Italien! Andy Moeller: Milan or Madrid – mainly Italy! |
| Wheat Dodger | It's a game of two halves. |
| Wicked Woy Wodgson | I definitely want Brooklyn to be christened, but I don't know into what religion yet. |
| Fabio Crapello | It's a game of two halves… |

| Messi Gardener | It's a game of two halves.?? |
| Stevie's Wunders | My heart goes out to the lads.?? |
| Normski Gunner | We need to give 110% to win this game and we will give that maximum effort today, Brian! |

| Del Garnett | The boy's done good, you know, he's covered every inch of grass out there |
| Swiss T | "With the offense you win games, but with the defense you win championships." And here is the one I hate (consider that I am swiss and we are not participating): "Every defeat is a victory in itself."?? |
Euroguff University – West Germany v Italy, semi-final World Cup, Mexico 70
As a forerunner of Thursday's match, let's look back to a previous encounter (cold war nomenclature discounted) between these teams. A great match, in the days where games had jazz-samba soundtracks and incredible tracksuits.??Given that stretchers are mandatory today for cramp, it's quite astonishing that Beckenbauer dislocates his shoulder and just gets up by himself.
Tweets for my tweet, sugar for my honey??
And I had so many ideas for headlines
"Anti pasta"; crude photoshops of the Italian Job; maybe a Cornetto reference or two. The lot!
If only Joe Hart had been to Euroguff University
Well done to Italy
Fully deserved. And they saved us from what would have been exactly the same fate (but worse) v Germany on Thursday.
NEVER MIND!??
England may be out, but Euroguff is immortal. Three more games to go and anyone could win* All the quarter final exit points are now in, but there are 16 points still to play for.

David Eagleman – Incognito
Bought this on a whim after hearing the author on Richard Bacon's Five Live show. It's an exploration of neuroscience and specifically the wonders of the subconscious.??
The most illuminating thought for me was around the de-centering of our conscious self. What that means is accepting that what we usually think of as ourselves is really just a tiny part of the whole brain. And in the same way we had to adapt to the earth not actually being the centre of the universe, it's rather sobering and wonderous to realise there's a lot more to our brains than the bits we can consciously access.

Haloumi, Hallo you
I am typing this on one of those new retsina screens ahead of donertime tonight when Greece will pitta their skills against Germany.??May the feta team win.
Six percent of Ouzoguffers have Greece going out at this stage, and 11% have the Germans coming down from Mount Olympus.??
The Greek teamsheet
But for hamstring injuries, and certain fantastical beasts, the Greek XI could have been heroic:
- Achilles, hero of the Trojan War and a central character in Homer's Iliad
- Ajax the Great, a hero of the Trojan War and king of Salamis
- Bellerophon, hero who slew the Chimera
- Daedalus, creator of the labyrinth and great inventor.
- Diomedes, a king of Argos (not the shop) and hero of the Trojan War
- Ganymede, Trojan hero and lover of Zeus, who was given immortality and appointed cup-bearer to the gods
- Jason, leader of the Argonauts
- Odysseus, a hero and king of Ithaca whose adventures are the subject of Homer's Odyssey
- Orpheus, a legendary musician and poet who attempted to retrieve his dead wife from the Underworld
- Perseus, son of Zeus and the founder-king of Mycenae and slayer of the Gorgon Medusa
- Theseus, son of Poseidon, a king of Athens and slayer of the Minotaur
Stand in the place where you were, now face north. Think about direction wonder why you haven't before

NEW FEATURE – Euroguff University
#1 – the greatest penalty in Euroguff history
In 1976 the final was between Czechoslovakia and West Germany. After extra time, it was 2–2, and the first penalty shootout in a final ensued. The first seven kicks were converted and then Uli Hoeneß, ballooned his over the bar. With the score at 4–3, Antonin Panenka stepped up to take the fifth Czechoslovakian penalty. Legendary German goalkeeper Sepp Maier dived to his left, while Panenka chipped the ball straight down the middle of the net. It was the ultimate death or glory gamble – and it paid off. Just look at their faces! Panenka is still a hero to many and his name is synonymous with that type of shot.
