Sorry mate. But I can't see them losing so close to Sunday, even if they do rest a few. Very solid, boringly efficient team at home.

Chelsea, Arsenal & Bayern Munich.
£20 returns £123
Arsenal have never won in Ukraine and we are resting a lot of players. DODGY
Yeah I must admit that I hadn't seen the team when I put the bet on.
I have faith in Nicky B.
Walcott, Bendtner, Rosicky and Wilshere are all pushing for starting places at the weekend so hopefully we get a lot of chances.
Nice start. Was really tempted to get on Walcott to score. 9/4 anytime I think the bet was.
Covered myself slightly by betting both teams score at 10/11 so if Arsenal slip up I'll get some cash back.
The FA Cup is always a nightmare with betting so I'm hoping that my Arsenal madness from midweek is behind me and I'm just just going for a load of favourites today.
Port Vale
AFC Wimbledon
Brighton
Colchester
Notts Co
Southampton
Peterborough
An accumulator and 21 fivefolds.
Also stuck the last £9.09 in my account on Bolton to beat Spurs (draw no bet) at 6/5.
I think 10/11 is very generous for QPR at home today. Reading are a decent team but more or less Evens is too good to turn down.
And Samba first goalscorer for Rovers @ 16/1 - the way we play for set-pieces etc it has to be worth a few quid.
I've got Bolton +0.5 goal handicap at just under Evens. Tired Spurs team with no VDV and Bolton are doing ok this season.Originally Posted by Beefy
FUCK OFF SPURS.
Squeaky bum time until Petrov stuck that in!
Next up Samba first goal...
Blackpool are 3/1 at West Ham tomorrow. Good value I think. I've got a shade under those odds for Blackpool to win or draw with more than 2 goals in the game.
Bolton 19/10 at Wolves too. Bolton unlucky to not win at Everton in midweek and have been impressive lately.
That Blackpool bet looks good.
I emptied my account at William Hill earlier. Put £10 on both Haye to win in the second and on him to win in the third (9/1 each), £1 on Harrison to win in the first 60 seconds (100/1), £5 on 'no goalscorer' in the Southend vs Accy Stanley game (there's never any goals when I bring mates to football who don't usually go) at 8/1 and the last £4 on an accumulator of Chelsea, Pompey, Sheff Weds, Plymouth & Wycombe at 25/1.
I was off work yesterday and was listening to H&J live at Cheltenham. Lost about £15 sticking a few quid on each of Paddy Power's tips. What a scam that was.
£5 on Haye to win between rounds 4-6 @ 11/4.
£2.17 () on Webber to qualify on pole @ 11/4.
Haye to win rounds 1-3
Pacquiao to win on points
£10 wins £110
Wolves completely outplayed Arsenal midweek and were very unlucky not to get a result. Plus without Stephen Ward in the team the defence might look alright.
I like the look of that bet Beefy, gonna stick a few quid on that. I've been on an atrocious run of form with football bets recently, need to improve.
I've got Pompey and Bournemouth but Pompey are doing terribly.
Fulham are 10/3 in play betting to beat us and they are all over us.
Fuck sake Beefy!
Twice in two weeks that I've got ridiculously good odds on Bolton. I think Mr Ladbroke might be less generous in future weeks.
Got a new glory hunt going on at the moment. Laying 40/1 multiples on Betfair. Trying to make 5% profit a day. Started off with a ton, if I can keep it going for 188 days I'll be a millionaire, I think it's entirely possible seeing as how I've never won a 40/1 multiple in my entire life.
Tonight I had £4.07 riding on one of the following NOT to win: Norway, Italy, Holland, Spain and Estonia.
After 10 days I have made £66
Had you followed all of those tips in that post you'd have turned £30 into £100 like I did.
England WERE 23/10 to win in Brisbane. Now we're 9/4. I've just had £30 quid on it; I suggest all English patriots do the same.
We are better than Australia in all departments. We have had perfect preparation to their nightmarish situation. If not now, then when? Back the Queens side to come out firing in an atmos where the ball will swing and our entire side are all guns blazing.
Bookies are reading too much into history. If England lose in Brisbane I'll eat my hat.
p.s. I might come back on here fulltime JUST to talk to Pete Cash. I remember trolling the fuck out of MR TROLL on MSN once when STraussy claimed a dubious catch
We're gonna beat you, and beat you well son. No shame in losing to a better team.
Yeh, wish I had got on England sooner. Going to have a look at a few Ashes related bets.
13 days down and still going strong.Got a new glory hunt going on at the moment. Laying 40/1 multiples on Betfair. Trying to make 5% profit a day.

As long as ONE of the following doesn't happen today I'll have reached my two week target of £197:
Everton, Getafe/Zaragoza draw, Colon, Ploiesti.
Poor Melv had Cahill first scorer, Sunderland to win 201. 218/1. Poor bloke.
Still going strong. Up to £234 now.
Heres my football lay for the day: Arsenal, City, Utd/B'burn draw
Hopefully others banged some money on Lech tonight too?
Hopefully no one else banged money on Lech tonight either?
Coventry

Cardiff
Wigan-Stoke draw
Blackburn
£10 returns £270
Northampton
Oxford
Ipswich
Man City
Spurs
£5 returns £70
So Cardiff cost me £270.... same old fucking story
Unlucky, that looked great odds for that bet.
It's always one bet that fucks me up. I'm just going to stick to four-folds from now on, but I've been a bit poor this season (losing my job etc)
JIJing it up but I won 30 quid from a quid on Chelsea, Wigan and Brum to draw. Got a massive 2 quid accumulator on the European football tonight and took 40 quid out the roulette machine at the bookies this morning. Ooooh yeah.
Got 5 quid on Morison to score first in the Millwall game, 7/1 on Bet Fred's enhanced odds thing which has been good to me in recent weeks.
What's your accumulator on European football? it's always a bit of risk betting on the last round.
I did win £800, with a starting bet of £10 on blackjack a few weeks back, so can't complain too much
Yeah I only put this stupid accy on because there were so many games here called off. Maybe I have a problem.
Bayern, PSV, Ajax, Twente, Milan, Pana, Real, Salzburg, Toulouse, Lille and Dinamo at 25/1. COME ON
That looks alright, actually. Might get on it.
If you have a problem, then I am beyond repair. I normally do well over a season but this season I have been pathetic. It's been right hard to predict games this season, from the Prem to the Conference- a punter's nightmare.
Yeah there's been some dreadful results as far as betting goes. I'm down on football bets This season but I've made it up on boxing bets, the bookies games machines and the casino. God I do have a problem.
only LOSERS have a gambling problem, mate. the rest of us win
I've been a loser this season
Bloody Bayern and Millwall
Lads, does anyone know if you can put a heinz, super heinz or goliath on in the bookies or is it just online?
I'm sure you could do it but you'd probably get a few funny looks.
You can definitely do them in the bookies. Although in my three years working in one I don't think anyone did.
Sweet. Cheers for the info lads
I hope you calculated the total stake for them otherwise they must hate you.
UPDATE:
4 weeks into my 32 week plan to get to a million.
After every 4 weeks I'm withdrawing a quarter of my bank so if it goes tits up I still have something left.
Started with a ton and after 30 days I'm up to £327 having already withdrawn £98
Rebecca is currently 8/1 to win the X Factor. The bookies must know something but those are crazy.
Why? It would be a massive shock if she won.
I wouldn't be massively surprised if she won. She'll have Liverpool behind her entirely plus she's brilliant. I think she will come second.
I agree she's brilliant and I want her to win but I can't see her coming better than third.
Might have to reconsider after that.
Alex I offer you my heartfelt apologies. Hope you put some money on it, this could go either way.
So apparently Keane is gone from Ipswich tomorrow.
If anyone can find somewhere to bet on this, I'd be eternally grateful. (Unless he stays)

Hodgson is 6/5 to be next manager sacked. Surely he'll go this week.
The only problem is with West Ham having Wolves on saturday, Grant could go if he loses.
Saints look a good price at 6/4 if Blackpool are going to field a weakened team.
I've got quite a few of bets unsettled at the moment. Rangnick next Liverpool manager at 12/1. Dean Smith next Walsall manager at 6/1 which annoyingly has gone out to 10s now. Sam Allardyce next West Ham manager at 5/2 amongst others.
Blackpool at 7/2 vs WBA looks a decent bet, perhaps? Especially considering team news...
- Gabriel Tamas is available to return to boost West Bromwich Albion's squad after serving a three-match ban but Jonas Olsson is out as he serves a one-match ban.
- Olsson is unavailable after being sent off at Reading last weekend while striker Peter Odemwingie is struggling with an ankle injury and Pablo Ibanez and Ishmael Miller are battling hamstring problems.
- Boss Roberto di Matteo is considering recalling Boaz Myhill in goals for Scott Carson while midfielder Steven Reid is out until the end of the month with a knee problem.
- Midfielder Elliot Grandin is hoping to play his second game in four days after making a successful comeback from a hamstring injury against Liverpool in midweek.
- David Carney remains unavailable away on international duty with Australia at the Asian Cup while Matt Gilks, Chris Basham, Billy Clarke (all knee), Marlon Harewood (hamstring) and Louis Almond (shoulder) are still on the injury list.
Draw no bet at 5/2 looks better to me just in case.
I went for the draw no bet at 5/2. £50 returns £175
I'm on it as well but only a tenner.
This is a real accumulator, none of this "oh I'll have a tenner on" bollocks.
PDC Premier League: Taylor OR Whitlock
ICC Cricket World Cup: India OR Australia
Snooker World Championship: Higgins OR O'Sullivan
NBA Championship: Miami Heat OR LA Lakers
IRB Six Nations: England OR France
Premiership: Man Utd OR Man City
Champions League: Barcelona OR Real Madrid
Europa League: Man City OR Porto OR Zenit
£250 returns £70,000
Rock n' roll.
Barnet's last minute equaliser screwed me over today.
I have either been very optimistic or foolish and placed a £10 bet at 14/1 with totesport that Hull City get promoted by any means this season.
Is that your bet or someone else's?
Also, how is your 32 week plan coming along?
Its mine, I put it on the other day.
The 32 week plan lost, thought I'd already posted that update but I lost it on an NBA accumulator.
Definitely gonna be giving that another go though I didn't lose anything in the end and with a few tweaks it could be very successful
Bit of help please.
I placed this bet:
Event Selection Price E/W Terms Status
Next Permanent Walsall Manager
Manager Specials
Outright - Specials Dean Smith 6/1 Win only Unsettled
Today it's been announced that he has the job till the end of the season:
Does this mean I'll have won the bet or do you think they'll argue that it's only till the end of the season and therefore not permanent?Dean, who has impressed since taking on the role in a caretaker capacity, will take charge of first-team affairs until the end of the season.
"We are really pleased to have Dean on board on a full-time basis," explained Chief Executive, Stefan Gamble. "The rest of the Board and I have been very impressed with how he has conducted himself since taking over the first-team reins and we are confident in his abilities as a manager.
I'm not too sure mate. They might say that he is not a permanent appointment but they will surely have to pay you if he is there at the beginning of next season. But I wouldn't want to wait that long though.
The club have said it's a full time appointment. I probably should have noted some t&cs when I placed it because this was always likely to happen.
If he's full-time then surely he is the next permanent manager
I had a bet for the next Liverpool manager which is still 'unsettled' because Dalgleish is only till the end of the season. Different company mind.
If he is only there untill the end of season, then I wouldn't consider that as permanent. Any longer then sure, they need to pay you the money.
Ladbrokes pay it after ten games.
Who did you put the bet on with Alex?
Surely Alex has won that bet? The Club aren't advertising the position or actively seeking a manager anymore so the bet should be settled. Smith's contract is until the end of the season and if they don't keep him on then the book opens again.
It's the same situation with Dalglish
You may be right, but the bookies will do anything to stop paying out.
The bet is with Victor Chandler.
Their t&cs are as such:
I've just been on the live chat thing and the guy said he's going to get the traders to look into it and get back to me.1.1. Next Permanent Manager
Bets are settled on the “Next Permanent Manager” as announced by the club. The permanent manager must be awarded a contract of at least one year’s duration. Appointments as caretaker, interim or temporary do not count for this market.
The terms and conditions do suggest they won't pay out. I did mention that he's in charge for 22 games and the chief executive himself has said it's a permanent appointment. We'll see I guess.
Yeah if he is not on one year contract then it looks like they won't pay out. Bastards.
Cunts.
Wankers.
That's shite.
Two reasons to hate them cunts then
1) FOREST
2) They hurt my pal Alex
I think a 6month contract for a manager is a permanent hire.
I'd suggest that you say that you want your stake back come the Summer if you don't win it. That is utter bollocks.
Alex, threaten to "send the boys round". They will soon pay up.
That is ridiculous. I wonder what percentage of managers actually last longer than a year.
The only other bookies who were offering the market were Skybet and they say they're going to pay out after 10 games.
It's worth sending them an email if it was for a decent amount of money, or even just out of principle. If their wording is the same as the statement, ie permanent manager, you surely have a case.
It was a tenner at 6/1. Not massive money but worth sending out a few emails for.
I got really pissed off with Betfair a while ago. Dunno if anyone remembers but I won a massive bet on the UEFA Cup a while ago and they took about five days to pay out. Happy enough to take my money instantly but as soon as they have to pay out they become complete dickheads.
I had a small bet on Mowbray to be next Boro manager when Strachan got the boot and Ladbrokes have not long paid out for that. Very annoying.
Bilel Moshni is apparently 22/1 to score first for Southend tonight or 15/2 to score any time. Moshni is on paper a centre-half but if Barry Corr isn't fit to play (and I don't think he will be) then Moshni will start up front - which is where he scored from on Friday against Bury and by all accounts was unplayable up there.
Presuming those prices are still the same by the time I get home tonight I'll be having some money on that.
I might stick some money on this. I blame you if I lose.
He is 33/1 to be first goal scorer with William Hill.
Even if he's at the back that's good odds as he's a massive threat from set pieces. But up front he had a 20 minute cameo against Bury and they couldn't deal with him at all. People down at the training ground this morning have confirmed that he's been up front in training today.
I'm going to stick £20 on it but obviously I'm a fan. If you can spare a fiver then the 'score anytime' would tempt me.
Exactly the bet that I was thinking of. Going to do just this.
a edinburgh double comes in at around 40/1 with paddy power.
and with the way rangers and celtic are playing at the moment its worth a couple of quid.
As it's payday I've stuck £20 on Moshni to score first and £5 on him to score any time. A much-needed £745 if he scores first now!
Beefy I swear to fuck this better happen. I just chucked my free £25 bet on it at will hill...
What on? Score first or score any time?
