Post up your bets/tips!

Watford v West Ham
Palace v Coventry
Bournemouth v Stevenage
Sheff Utd v Walsall

£8 pays £126

3 out of 4 on the first one, Bournemouth let me down (same as you). Complete fail on the other

Pretty annoying really, fancied B'mouth to go on and win at 1-1 but the red card and penalty given for it was clearly the big turning point.

Derby to beat Doncaster
Charlton to beat Scunthorpe
Rovers to beat Macclesfield

£7 returns £50.

That looks tasty,though i have a feeling Derby's bubble has to burst soon.

Chelsea, Reading, Southampton, Charlton, Wimbledon

11.30/1

Cov-Watford DRAW
Oldham-Rochdale DRAW

11.56/1

Random hunch.

Random hunch, I like it :) (they've cost me a lot over the years though haha)


Npower Championship Matches Bristol City v Portsmouth
20-08-2011 15:00
Portsmouth @ 15/8

Npower League 2 Matches Torquay v Crawley
20-08-2011 15:00
Crawley @ 11/10

Npower League 2 Matches AFC Wimbledon v Hereford
20-08-2011 15:00
AFC Wimbledon @ 4/6

Total stake: £5.00

Returns: £50.31

City have been a bit of a mixed bag so far - a poor start but then a cracking result in the week, even if St Ledger did hand the winner to Maynard on a plate

Yeah, I'm hoping that was just a fluke and they will go back to being shite today!

Dinamo Zagreb, Hajduk Split, Partizan Belgrade, Crvena Zvezda

3.07/1

If this doesn't happen I will eat my hat.

BURY vs Leicester   
Millwall vs MORECAMBE

28/1

Very unlikely but both are on form and knocked out champ sides in round 1. Plus Leicester and Millwall haven't got off to the best of starts.

Already eaten it.  :)

Cheeky double.

Lincoln vs Stockport DRAW, Hertha Berlin vs Stuttgart DRAW

12/1

Good luck, but you need to start putting how much you're betting or its not as fun :)

Only £3.

I finally won a bet. £1 on Stoke, Birmingham and Shalke to win returned £2.12! An up-turn in my usual betting habits.

Whats Charlie Austins odds to be top scorer in Championship

Surely got to be worth a ton e/w

I'll give you odds of 1/100 to make top 3 scorers

Anything around 10/1 and its got to be worth a bet

kevin phillips for that i think

he scored 34 for burnley in my fm game

What version of FM are you playing?
Im still on 99/00 but an updated version with all the current players

99/00 why??  ;D

2011 with a data update

Its the best version - i've not been able to get used to one since as I find it way too detailed. Although I havn't bought one for about 3 years so thinking of trying it out again.

Actually I just realised it 01/02 that I play!

As one of your fans said after you played us,Cheltenham will go down don't know who he is the bookies are changing there mind think he should to.  ;)

How has that got anything to do with this thread or what you quoted??

I don't know I'm on the iPad and couldn't find the reply button so just went for the quote button :girlgiggle:

Told ya so.  :)

Nice one! Still awaiting my first win of the season, I am pretty certain it won't be this bet aswell:

I forgot about that one. :) Another win to add to the Fola pot.

For tomorrow I've got us and a West Ham double. £5 returns £13.50 odd. Brighton messed up my accy so that's it for tomorrow. :(

Another win today.  :D

Another fail for me!

Had a quid on cardiff leicester draw, qpr villa draw, just now.
9/1

Another win  :D

Today must be my first football win in ages.
Villa
Man City
Man U
Liverpool
Newcastle

£5 Returned 105.21

QPR 3/1 to win at Fulham today, that's a good price.

Chelsea to win at Bolton
QPR to win at Fulham
Stoke to win at Swansea
Spurs to beat Arsenal at home

Works out approx 30/1

ive got the same apart from ive gone arsenal to win, worked out at 51/1 i think. 5-er from yesterdays winnings wont hurt.

Oops

had close to a 15 quid return on a quid for chelsea, swansea, fulham and spurs, so that was nice...

On the plus side I won £90 on a scratchcard on the National Lottery website :)

haha, oops indeed.

Whacked a quick 10-er on
Real Madrid
Juventus
PSG

£10 returned £72.23

Not a bad weekend for me.

today i have
denmark
england
portugal
germany
holland
spain
all to win £10 returns £102

3 have finished allready other 3 are all going the right way, but i can see england fuck it up.

i had a quid on

germany - won
holland - won
wales - 2-0 up
spain - 2-0 up
france - 3-0 up
england - 2-1 up
portugal - 3-0 up

will net me about 37 quid

don't fuck it england!!

You're no risk taker are you! ;)

Not a bad return all the same.

:)

ooh, no make that about 33 quid, still good.

i hate england

KT ooops

cunts

Had two lines. England & N. Ireland screwed my so called cert bet.

The other was a beast and let down by the Swiss and Italians.

So to make up for it I have a bet on the darts coming in need Hylton to win next match.

Overnight I am betting on Argies, Brasil, Yokohoma, Goias and England in the AM Ruggers. £2.50 wins me £30.

My league bet tomorrow is Town, Charlton, Huddersfield, Sheff Weds and Shrews. £2.50 again makes £30 odd.

Tonight was typical of international games, the least likely letting people down left right and centre, bookies must be laughing hard.

not happy again, yesterday england fuck it up in the 90th minute, today Swindon do it. Thats 200 bucks potentially lost by 2 late goals.

Oh do you bet in dollars then?

The bet of 2012 is probably Spain at about 5/2 for the Euros

no no no swindon to win prem 2018

Man Utd, Man City, Benfica, Blackpool, Fleetwood & Stockport.

£4 returns £94.06.

:D

Had a little £2 bet on:

Npower League 1 Matches Wycombe v Charlton
25-10-2011 19:45
Charlton @ 10/11

Npower League 2 Matches Barnet v Southend
25-10-2011 19:45

Morecambe @ 11/10

Npower League 2 Matches Cheltenham v Crewe
25-10-2011 19:45
Cheltenham @ 8/11

Returns?  Sounds tidy...  Be tempted to add CRAWLEY vs Dag & Red to that.

I think its 27.69 returned from a £2 using those odds.

Yeovil vs Leyton Orient    Will both teams score?    Yes    8/13    
 Northampton vs Hereford    Will both teams score?    Yes    4/6    
Barnet vs Southend    Will both teams score?    No    6/5    
Scunthorpe vs Huddersfield    Will both teams score?    Yes    8/13    
Preston vs Oldham    Will both teams score?    Yes    8/13    
Walsall vs Exeter    Will both teams score?    No    evens    
Morecambe vs Rotherham    Will both teams score?    Yes    8/13    
Swindon vs Gillingham    Will both teams score?    Yes    8/13

£1 wins £80. Did a similar one saturday, only lost out because wycombe failed to score

Like those bets Dave, the 'goals galore' bets, but don't ever go for 'no' on them. As the yes bet you've always got a chance, right up to the last few minutes. But the 'no' bet and you can be out at half time, bit like tonight for you.

Exeter hadn't fucking scored away from hom all season before tonight!

Won £92 on a £25 free bet. Standard.

if anyone's interested Betclic have a £30 free bet upon sign up

Some bookies are offering 4/1!

They're 4.75 (i use decimals!) on Bet365

Sheffield United and Wisla Krakow let me down in case anyone cares.

Not really  :D

But, unlucky all the same.

BRENTFORD v Basingstoke
BRISTOL ROVERS v Corby
LEYTON ORIENT v Bromley
MKD v Nantwich
NOTT COUNTY v Accrington

And again today, down to 1 game in my 7 games accumilator. And plymouth go and draw with stoubridge (sp)

Nice little accumulator today...

Notts County vs Accrington Stanley Match betting Notts County  1/2

Couldn't see much value in today at all Bradford and Colchester were the only shouts I could see with Abomination and County being dead certs.

About £500 in profit so far this season so happy enough.

I think you should post your slips BEFORE the games are played  :D

I'll try to next week. 

I don't seem to get the time to study form any more.  I used to have a decent grasp on all of the Scotch lower leagues and there was often decent value to be found if you put the time in.

These days I try and keep tabs on a handful of teams and I hate to say it but Franchise are always a consistent bet.

Swindon, Franchise, Brentford

£4 returned £20 odd.

Arse, Ham, Town £10.00 treble acc with Laddies

Clayton to score first Burnley v Leeds, £3 at 14/1

Also got a 7 fold which returns £860 from £2, I can't remember what matches but it's never going to happen anyway.

Bayern Munich v Villarreal - Bayern Win
Man Utd v Benfica - Man Utd Win
Napoli v Man City - Man City Win
Real Madrid v Dinamo Zagreb - Madrid Win
Lyon v Ajax /Match Betting - Lyon Win
CSKA Moscow v Lille - Moscow Win
Otelul Galati v Basel - Basel Win

Just put £1.25 on this with Betfred online. Hate having odd amounts in the account

Returns £104 IF it comes in... What are your opinions on the games listed above? Think I stand a chance?

There's always a chance! :D One of them will probably fuck up though
