I've actually gone for a pretty big 8 fold this weekend, with;
Sheffield Wednesday @ evens
Charlton @ 5/6
Hull @ 8/11
Reading @ 1/2 (i hate betting on the team i support but the odds offered with us at home to Coventry seemed to good to pass by)
Crawley @ 4/9
Sheff Utd @ 4/11
Bayer Munich @ 2/11
Galatasaray @ 2/5

5/6 in the end, as 2 games were called off, pretty annoying as i was checking my bets and completely overlooked Wednesday.

Don't know what others think but Man Utd look generously overpriced at 7's for the Europa Cup especially when Man City are only 5's. Double it up with Barcelona for the Champions League and your looking at a nice return.

English teams have a better away record away from home in the knockout stage of the CL than in the group stage. I'll probably back Arsenal DNB (2.78 on Betfair)

Bit of an afterpost but couldn't resist the 10/1 offered at half time for Man City to beat Porto

£5 on the draw at 16/5
£5 on Man City win at 10/1

nice little return

After the event, again.

Concourse scorecast £3 @ 22/1

Third decent win (for a penny gambler) in as many weeks. Over a ton up.

Cardiff let me down on one bet and Borussia Dortmund let me down on another for a HT/FT :evil: Can't believe Stoke are as big as 11/10 / EVS away at Crawley tomorrow

On Betfair, why can i LAY against Sven to be next Wolves manager @ 1000/1? Does that mean if he isn't next manager and i put £1 on i get £1001 back?

Other way round, you'd be staking £1000 to win £1
