The Betting Thread

Lost my credit on England, so I won't be playing this week. They couldn't just score one? For me? Nope, we had to be super average instead.

Did 2 sixfold accumulators today:

Bet 1:
Aston Villa to beat Sunderland
Arsenal to beat Cardiff
Everton to beat Stoke
Norwich to beat Palace
West Ham and Fulham draw
Newcastle to beat WBA

Bet 2:
Villa and Sunderland draw
Arsenal
Everton
Nowich and Palace draw
West Ham beat fulham
Newcastle

£2.50 on both of them, £160 and £245 returns respectively.

So, last week I won nearly £200 from a £1 bet. Going 1 better this week, going for nearly £600 from a £1 bet. I like to mix up English and Scottish games - I'm sad enough to actually like the Scottish leagues - not Celtic or Rangers, but the other ones.

Wish me luck!

Derby lost me my accumulator. £1 bet and I'd have gotten nearly £200 if only Derby could have won. Every other team came through. Bastards!

Millwall drew in the last minute to spoil a 5-team accumulator I did (seperate from the one above)... typical.

Can anyone give me 5-6 definite winner or if easier total goals scored so i can hit a parlay. Thanks! :]

There are no definite winners in the Premier League but you would be safer to bet on Swansea, Chelsea and Southampton for their matches this afternoon... everton v arsenal will be tough to call but I would go Arsenal.

Going for some big ones today.

To start with, my European £1 bet, with a return of £136.56 has the following teams to win:
Man Utd
Chelsea
Tottenham
Man City
Leicester
Bayern Munich
Borussia Dortmund
Bayer Leverkusen
Atletico Madrid
AC Milan

To be honest, I forgot I added the top 3 teams to the bet when I'd made it, as I wanted it to be an all Saturday bet. So I'll be annoyed if all the Saturday teams win and the Sunday don't.

Then there's the big one. £1 bet for a total return of £1,430.72. Fingers crossed people!
Leicester City
Norwich City
Middlesbrough
Bristol City
Bradford City
Bury
Portsmouth
Rangers
Hearts
Forfar Athletic
Dunfermline Athletic

The problem with doing Bundesliga bets is that the games are so random at the moment. No team except Bayern have any form. After five games, Hamburg only managed to score their first goal of the season last week so you would have thought Dortmund would have gobbled them up at home this week. But they lost 1-0. Leverkusen should have beaten newly promoted Paderborn but didn't. Schalke lost to Hoffenheim this weekend but last week beat Dortmund.

had two bets today.

Portugal/Denmark O2.5 goals which loss
But hit a nice Poland/Scotland to tie at +240 odds and hit that as it ended 2-2
