isnt it easier to just write

Italy beats Demark
or
France draws England

Rather than this 1, 2 , x stuff that confuses me.
Actually, it's the standard way of writing results in betting circles, which is why I'm familiar with it. I guess it's much more practical when it comes to club matches, since there's a home and away team. The home team is always written first, and since it's possible to place bets on a team not losing, it's much easier to write (in the case that I want to be that Man U will NOT win)

Arsenal - ManU 1X

1X meaning "I think the home team will win or it'll be a draw"

You can't fight the standards, my friends :D

And it really shouldn't be very confusing guys, come on :)
