African Cup of Nations

Guess the first scorer competition – iPhone prize

by Rocwood on 17 November, 2008

Since our last competition was so popular, we have decided to run another one on the Germany v England game on Wednesday night. To enter, you need to predict the time of the first goal – please enter an exact time, for example 12 minutes 34 seconds.

The prize this time is another Apple iPhone 16gb. We will post it anywhere worldwide, it is unlocked so provided your country issues SIM cards for use in a mobile phone, you can use the iPhone.

This competition is sponsored by our friends at Curve Clothing, who stock some excellent Stone Island and CP Company jackets. If you are interested in Stone Island / CP Company please check out their site – its sponsors who help us run free competitions with nice prizes.

To enter the competition, please click here and fill in your guess – we are monitoring IP’s and if you enter more than once you will be disqualified.

Good luck all!
