I've just been into my local pub and there were lots of drip mats on the tables with a World Cup competiton to win a MG Sports car from Sports Direct and it looked really easy to enter!

I managed to collect 9 different drip mats, each of with had a different question on which you have to answer on-line. If you go to the Sports Direct dot com and type in backslash and then the names of the following famous football players, there's a question to answer on each:

gazza
moore
butcher
crouch
greaves
mcclaren
southgate
pearce
maradona
Good luck everyone!:)
