    Hi, I back Ireland €100 @ 13/2 last november to qualify for euro 2008.Look a bit dodgy to me now. Can I do anything now to cover myself as in lay them / back them not to qualify, etc? Paddypower have at the moment 1/5 not to qualify - 3/1 to qualify.
    Do I have an option now or should I wait for the result of the slovak game?

    To answer your question the liability is €600.

    However there isn't any real point in laying them at 6.0 you may as well back them not to qualify with PP at 1/5 (the odds are the same and no commission on winnings).

    Why don't you Offer to lay them at 5.0 (or lower - last price matched was 4.6 at time of writing)on Betfair. Worst case scenario - no-one takes it and you back with PP just before kick-off..

    My 2 cent worth
