    Good old paddy power.
    Who would have guessed i would be betting on the ecuador and polish leagues to try
    and scrape some cash together!

    Only reason i backed arsenal was to make watching the game more interesting

    Villareal are 1-0 up in the UEFA cup

    30 mins in and they are 1:0 up and supposedly looking comfortable 'supposedly'(reading online -no access to TV at the mo). balls.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭The Hacker


    4 minutes in they were 1-0 up. Adebayor - legend.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    1-1 and starting to become a very open game.
    Could go anyway now
    25 mins left

    I'm thinking of a "last min" 200 euro bet on whatever the score is ie 1-1 with 60 secs left then bet draw. I'll only get a few euro back but it'll cover my fiver! :p

    60 minutes against 10 men
    Disaster of a game
    And they missed a penalty!
    Never thought i would be cheering Tim Cahill :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭dotsflan


    am i mistaken but did all the favourites win in the uefa cup tonight. i had four of them in an accum but i could have put in a lot more but didnt want to get greedy. If all the favs won the bookies must have been cleaned this evening. One for the punters at last!!!!!!!

    Well **** Seville! **** them.

    Mike.

    I had to go and check who were the mods! mike65 you already have one forum under your belt another would do you no harm!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65

    Should we move this to the personal issues forum???? ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,454 ✭✭✭✭cson


    In all fairness though the Gaff could do with an active mod. Isn't it ecksor and WWM who are the mods? (And admins?)

    To be honest theres not much muppetry, the odd bit here and there, but an active mod wouldn't do any harm imo.

    Yep, although having said that the forum is a bit more lively these days too. A 50 post thread on a quietish Wednesday ain't bad! In comparision to the Horse Racing forum which is undergoing a bit of a recession after a couple of good contributers got themselves banished.

    Damn nags.
    Cant back nags, most unpredictable sport ever.
    Ive tried but there is no money to be made there.
    Form means nothing half of the time.
    At least with soccer you have a 70-80% chance of being right looking at the form,
    injuries,home vs away advantage etc.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,772 ✭✭✭jameshayes


    I always pop in to see whats going on - but i rarely post(until now) mainly becuase there is no threads that grab my attention... some regular threads like your priemiership ones cson would be good


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,772 ✭✭✭jameshayes


    duplicate post -ooops

    Plus its very hard to fix soccer matches ;)

    Dont start me on the NAGS I have backed so many losers over the past few weeks that I have given up on them! I got 3 tips in a row and all were well beaten. Form does go out the window especially in the wet and window conditions that is upon is now! I am sticking to the soccer bets - now where is that fixture list!
