Ok, I've narrowed it down to 2 options. Either Hulsey's way..which is fairer but takes up time or Keep the list as it is..tis quicker but could be construed as less fair I guess for the second one how do you sort the number of the teams?

Dunno if this has been suggested and in which case if it has, apologises.. How about everyone has a number, Lolly can deal with that then someone else can give all the teams in the hat a number.. then we just do it like they do on't telly with the offical draw. Kinda had a similar idea but just that Lolly picks a random poster and keeps the name to herself...she asks her assistant for any random team from the 64 available...that would work but people want it now now now lol.... Patience is a virtue

I've put the list of team into a spreadsheet..I entered the teams totally randomly.

I like your idea, clever enough Or how about ... Someone PM's everyone a NEW number ... and in that process, someone else puts all the teams in a random order, and posts it when the first person has finished PM'ing everyone. But leave out the second person (selecting the teams) so that they wont know their number, until they see that one is left out ... ? Or too confusing ?

Jen, why not just write the names of the teams and people on folded pieces of paper and put in seperate piles. Then draw one from each pile. If people think you are likely to cheat then they clearly don't know you very well at all.

That's what I was gonna do, but in the World Cup, I got England (completely randomly) and I think people were a bit sceptical.

Sod it, it's my game, might as well get something sorted now!
I'll do it the way I originally was going to. The old fashioned names out of a hat way. It's fairer that way. But you'll have to trust me.
