I’m happy with that and I’m not very clever :) so trying to build something from source isn’t something that I would be capable of.

But yes, it does use the same data files as FSA (with some minor enhancements). It has customisable templates so you can make the HTML look however you want. The code is available on GitHub. If you *really* want to use it now, you could try installing GHC and Cabal and building it from source, but that's only for the adventurous. Also, there is no documentation at all so, even if you were able to build it, it won't be clear how to actually use it. This is deliberate on my part. I am making regular changes to the software and don't want to support it in its present form. I may distribute it properly in future but not soon. Which version of FSA are you using? I never actually got round to packaging up version 3 (as seen here: http://www.footballpredictions.net/fsa.html) as an official release. If you want to upgrade to that in the meantime, I can do a proper release. @Phil: I haven’t decided exactly what I intend to do with the code yet, so I’m not actively encouraging other people to use it at the moment.

I am from Denmark. I love the Soccer and cannot wait till 11th June, can you?.But there is a problem camming from FIFA. It is that doesn´t choose the best teams in this planet for the World Cup which it should otherwise don´t call the World Cup a final, if you want to play football for the soul of competition then go to the olympics games. this is exactly what the World Cup is turning to, and it su..., ire needed to beat portugal to be in and is not, jap beat lowly teams as bahrain, qatar, kuwait, to be in, is this justice I dont think so, just because you are in the World Cup it doesn´t mean that you have the quality to be in like jap can attes. Any way, I expect to watch a great final on 11th July and my favorite winner team is Denmark,and my favorite player is Ricardo Kaka.Good blog and keep going.Cu!
