No one Kibbled that then. I wonder if anyone has scored a World Cup five points in the history of Kibble? |

Have just had a look through the results from previous year, and *it's never happened*. Ever. I seem to remember a meeting of the Kibble rules committee where we discussed amending this so that you get the five points if four-or-more goals are scored (instead of five-or-more). However, I think Dr. Booze interrupted the discussion and the only decision that we ended up making was that it was still early doors, therefore there was time for another pint. |

its pleasing to see Dave got it wrong entirely. There is hope for me to claw my way back up to second at least. Does this mean that 7 of the korean "fans" will now be shot? |

I didn't get it wrong *entirely*. I got it wrong by seven. |

Exactly. Given that Dave Kibbled for North Korea to score 0 goals he was, technically, half right. I think he should be awarded 1.5 points to reflect this and shall be lobbying on his behalf. |

You could even argue that the seven goals scored would not have been scored against any kind of decent opposition and therefore should not be counted at all. I think this kind of subjective evaluation of scores vs. kibbles has a lot going for it. I am about to study all my kibbles so far in light of this radical (and arguably fairer) new approach and will let you know what I think my kibble score should be corrected to. |

On big-scoring games, I notice that Doug has kibbled a shock 12-2 victory for South Korea against Nigeria while everyone else in th group has gone for 1-1. Has he noticed some strange betting patterns or has there been a fat-fingered error? |

Given that Doug has beautifully tapered pianist's (pianist's) fingers, I think we can only assume it's a bold prediction. I salute this. |

Damn! Err... I mean, I'll let you know after the game whether this was intentional or not. |
