Dave & Karl have started a civil war and they must pick a team to represent them but with multiple factors... "The longitudinal match, to end all matches! Due to an argument between Dave and Karl over the awarding of points for being late for pod recordings, the world has been split in two! Right down the middle between the two of you, following a longitudinal line down from the exact mid point between Navan and London (yes I bothered to figure out where that was). The only way to settle this argument is for the both of you to come up with a squad made of players from each of your respective hemispheres. So for Dave he gets Ireland, all of the Americas, western Spain, Portugal and a lot of west Africa, plus western Wales, most of Scotland and then Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset from England. Karl gets the rest of England, the eastern half of Spain, the rest of Europe, the bulk of Africa, then all of Asia and Australasia as well. I have included the a map so if you need a visual you can go from this! Rules are as follows. Each need to create a squad with a starting 11 and 5 subs of current players, you must have at least two players from each continent in your hemisphere, and when the match is played out, you both have to make at least three subs at 60 minutes. A little twist is you both HAVE to include one player from these nations, and they MUST be included in your mandatory 60th minute substitution. Dave - Costa Rica Karl - Finland Who might win this hypothetical game, who can put the best squad together, and who has the best hemisphere!?" Learn more about your ad choices.
