Midweek Footy Betting

edited March 2010 in The Shed
You'd expect Liverpool to win tonight but i've stuck a small blind on Draw/Portsmouth in the HT/FT market.  1st reason is we're pants, 2nd is we've never won a Monday evening game since Rafa's been in charge and 3rd reason is Avram Grant has never seen one of his sides lose against us.

    ffs Liverpool were 15/8 (-2)
  • edited March 2010
    I looked at that yesterday but knowing how Liverpool have a habit of letting me down this season I decided to stay well away.

    Had a quick look through tomorrow's games. Not sure if I'll go for anything yet as the majority are really close calls.

    Im Only doing a five pound treble due to some tough games, its a outsider but worth a shot..

    Ipswich at 7/4 away to watford who have not won in ages. Also watford lost at home to bottom team peterborough weekend....

    WBA at 7/4 away to swansea, I support wba an have to say i am quitely confident we can get a win here, swansea dont score many goals at all, only 31 all season and with the baggies scoring loads i can see this being a wba victory, or a 0-0 lol.

    Southampton at 8/11 at home to swindon, if southampton can beat leeds at home, this is a banker.

    The treble pays 12/1.

    quick question - does anyone know if you have to be using the site to be in with a chance of receiving a free bet during the sports fest? for instance would we all have to place a bet today to be able to win the free bet tomorrow morning? or can anyone who is a member get it regardless of if they have placed any bets this week?

    Thanks and good luck everyone!

    Oh yh I have also stuck a few quid on Inter to win at 5/1 and also Inter to qualify. Got a strong feeling Jose will want to show us all he is still the special one!

    Hope you're right mate. Villa owe me after losing 2-0 to Wigan at Villa Park at the start of the season. What a shock that was.

    Similar bet to mine really. The only difference is I've missed off Dundee. I just had a funny feeling about that game finishing a draw. The other 3 are paying 7/5 though so not too bad.
  • edited March 2010
    yeah i wouldnt have bet them normaly, just needed to boost it up to get the money back i lost on the horses today
  • edited March 2010
    well after 15 minutes they are all winning, except dundee lol
  • edited March 2010
    1-1 at Ayr now.

    Must admit, I was really tempted by the handicap betting for the Barca & Newcastle games. Barca were 7/4 & Newcastle 21/10 for both starting at -2. The only thing that stopped me was the Hull/Arsenal game on Saturday when I had them at -1.
