THE World Cup is almost here, and with it the chance to pull a team out of a hat and lose £1 because it’s Panama. Which no-hopers have you been stuck with?
Carolyn Ryan, senior manager: “Blue Curaçao. I don’t think whoever wrote this was giving it their full attention.”
Will McKay, marketing executive: “Scotland. Which if you’re going to throw a pound away on Scotland it should really go directly to a tramp at King’s Cross.”
Hannah Tomlinson, head of accounts: “I’ve got North Korea. Or South Korea, same difference.”
Sophie Rodriguez, human resources officer: “Capa Verde, which is actually ideal for me as it gives me the opportunity to persistently wear the green cape I got of Vinted last year.”
Wayne Hayes, audit: “I refused to take part, everyone called me a miserable bastard, I made careful note of who, didn’t come in the next day, began a grievance procedure, and consequently I’ll be off for the next six weeks watching every game on full pay. Now that’s the FIFA spirit.”
