Euro2008 predictions, day 1 - join in!
Saturday, 07 June 08, 05:06 AM
Right, just for the laugh I'm going to do a predictions post for each days games.
This is based on nothing more than pure guesswork, some of you might like to be more scientific in your approach. So let's crack on.
Switzerland 2-1 Czech Republic
Portugal 3-2 Turkey
Goals, lots of goals. After so long without football that's just what we need. I'm even expecting Greece to play wonderful attacking football. Well, maybe that's stretching it a bit too far. Anyway, feel free to join in, leave a comment and predict your scores.
Also, remember the first Eurocast goes out tomorrow morning. We want to hear from you by phone, by Skype or by email. Your comments are what makes the podcast so don't be shy. The more creative you are the better. We'll have a t-shirt to give away for the best contribution each day as well.
To contact us use the info below:
UK - +44 20 7193 6971

The Eurocast - the podcast that you can be part of
Thursday, 05 June 08, 07:39 AM
Right then.
The Eurocast. It's a podcast, as you might have gathered, and it's also about the European Championships. That's why we called it the Eurocast.
But it's slightly different too. The
Eurocast is the only podcast that will give fans a chance to have their say on the games at Euro2008.
'How?', I hear you cry. At least I imagine I hear you cry. Easy. We've set up a voicemail system so you can call in and leave messages before, during or after any game.
We want to hear what you think about team selections, goals scored, goals disallowed, red cards, individual and team performances, controversial incidents and basically anything that pertains to Euro2008. All you need to do is leave a voicemail, we'll get them all together and broadcast them each morning in the Eurocast.
So, for example, if you have thoughts about this Saturday's games which are Switzerland v Russia and Portugal v Turkey you just pick up your phone, dial the number and leave your message. You have until Sunday morning to get your messages in. Try and keep them under 60 seconds and leave your email address at the end. That's because we'll have prizes. Yes! Prizes. There'll be a t-shirt to give away for the best contribution each day and maybe at the end we'll have a grand prize for the best overall contributor.
Make a note of the numbers. We have a UK number and a Swiss number for anyone who's actually at the tournament and wants to get involved.
UK - +44 20 7193 6971
SWISS - +41 44 586 62 08
But that's not all. If you have Skype you don't even have to pay for a phone call. Simply add 'oleole.com' as a contact then use Skype to call us. It'll go directly to the voicemail.
And if that's not enough we're happy to get your emails too - send them podcast@oleole.com
This is the only Euro2008 podcast that's giving fans a voice. Tell your friends. Tell them to tell their friends. Tell them to tell their friends to tell their friends. And so on.
The Eurocast starts this Sunday. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment here on this blog.
