Thanks, tarek! Any idea of a difficulty rating on this one?

This would be a bit too much for GATTAI, & probably will be challenging for pencil & paper solvers especially with so much to go through.

My future versions will most likely be easier ...

England (to all who don't know) have exited from the WC2010 ... So this series will not continue (v Argentina, v Spain & then v Brazil will not happen :x ).

Future Kazagurumas will happen as I have generated enough supplies :applause:

Looking forward to them. I'm still working on the Bank Holiday Kazaguruma #3 (I messed up #2 AGAIN and will have to start it over).

There will be one more Kazaguruma to celebrate the World cup final (Spain v Holland) :pray:

I'm glad that at least one person (that being you enxio27) is still solving these puzzles.

But of course! I think they're a very clever variation.
