Football This or That — play it with your friends

Then put a price on them: the football auction

Same group, same footballers, more at stake. Football auction

1. 📲Create a game and send the link. Send the link to the five-a-side group, the fantasy league chat or the pub table. Everyone joins on their own phone with the link or a 4-letter code.
2. 🔨Bid on one footballer at a time. Goalkeepers, centre-backs, playmakers and strikers come up one at a time, today's stars mixed with legends in their best season. Bid in steps of 0.5M; every bid puts the clock back to 10 seconds.
3. 🏟️Pick a shape when the hammer has fallen for the last time. The match is played out live, chance by chance, and the stronger XI wins. With three or more managers you play a full season, home and away, and the top two meet in a final.

More football games for the same group

• 🔨The live auction. Everyone gets 100M and bids for the same footballers. Build the stronger XI and win.
• 🕵️Guess the player. Six clues about a mystery footballer, one at a time. Name them first — a wrong guess hands everyone else the point.
• 🎭Imposter. Everyone gets the same footballer except one bluffer. One word each, then vote.

Why football fans keep playing This or That

• 💡A football tip. Pairs come from the same position, so the real question is style: the elegant playmaker or the one who runs all day? Know which your friend secretly prefers.
• 🧠It's about your friends. You score by knowing which footballer your mate would pick, not by knowing the most stats.
• ⚖️Fair pairs. The two footballers always share position and era and sit close in level, so there is no easy pick.
• 🔁Everyone picks. The picker changes every round, so the quiet one gets their turn too.
• 💬Arguments included. Every round ends with someone defending a pick they can't explain.
• 🚫No ads. Ever. Two names, twelve seconds, nothing else.
