Re: Transfer Window Bingo

Why have you bolded half of the names on your card? :)

ivansen: I'm trading Carr since it was wrong to include him. Haven't decided for who yet though, but I won't take the easy way out and substitute him for Johnson or something like that. Need to think it over for a day or two.

By the way, we might need a rule saying that whenever a club has agreed a transfer fee for a certain player that player is no longer up for selection. It kinda takes the fun out of it otherwise. Johnson, Ronaldo and Campbell are all pretty easy picks at this time.

I was trying the best way to seperate each one because it looked really confusing when I previewed it.

Ah. It looks like half of your predictions have come true though :)

You could always use Klaus Daimler's Official Transfer Window Bingo Card

Just edit it, reupload it using imageshack (or some similar host) and post the image in the thread whenever a prediction comes true.

I agree with this and I've followed it to some extent so far, except for the really early ones. And I agree with the point of it, being that you shouldn't benefit from transfer technicalities. You should instead have a decent, fairly based guess.

Re: Transfer Window Bingo

It isn't very nice of you to change some of the players on your list after you made your original choice, proof_afc. Even if you had to rearrange them to fit into a four by four grid after you first posted it. Cana, Cisse, Alonso at glance.

@Drevak

Apart from Cana nothing is changed, and if I remember correctly I changed it in the same day and completed my list, because I didn't know that I had to arrange the transfers into 4 rows.

I don't know if it was what you had in mind, but since I'm awesome I created an equally awesome bingo card just so I could look a tad more awesome than anyone else in this thread:

Hrmph.. 'So awesome' indeed. Seems like I've seen something like this before:

Plagiarism of a novelty bingo card on a footy forum. Sigh.. What's the world come to? ;)

:lol: What a pic! I honestly hadn't seen that one before! Notice how your inferior picture is all white though, as opposed to my superior red background. Also, I snatched the whole logo and not just the site name. And last, but not least, my grid is thicker and the overall composition is much more awesome. So there!

Hehe. I think I see your nose growing a little bit there Klaus...

You're quite right though: The bold strokes, the choice of un-centered Times NewRoman font, the pixelization around the title... Chez magnifique! I yeild to your superior mastery of MSPaint!

Re: Transfer Window Bingo

Klaus, Reyes permanently signed for Benfica last December. You might aswell have had Arshavin to Arsenal in your bingo predictions. :D

I don't think I have to sit here and take that from someone who just opted for the lazy way out and painted his background white instead of the light grey, F7F7F7 kind of color that Arsenal-Mania posts generally make use of ;)

outlaw: No he didn't. Benfica owns 25 percent of the player rights but he's still Atletico's player. He has currently returned to Spain.

Yes, that's for the 25 percent of his license that people originally thought was the complete transfer. It wasn't however (and the quotes from the agent was false), as indicated by this article: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.goal.com/en/news/701/atletico-madrid/2009/04/20/1219657/atletico-de-madrids-jose-antonio-reyes-wants-to-remain-at" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.goal.com/en/news/701/atletic ... -remain-at</a>

Or this one: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.goal.com/en/news/12/spain/2009/06/12/1321167/atletico-madrid-wont-lower-asking-price-for-jose-antonio" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.goal.com/en/news/12/spain/20 ... se-antonio</a>

:wink:

Benfica wants Atletico to lower their asking price but the spaniards are not very keen on doing so.
