    I wouldn't bet against Chelsea in Moscow to be honest..usually in a Man U game i'd go for a punt Ronaldo first scorer,but he has a tendency to get lost in big games,so its a bit less likely


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,807 ✭✭✭chump


    in what i'd regard as a 50:50 game you have to take the side with the best odds
    chelski are the value

    as a manu supporter i wouldnt touch this game


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    They only won the league by two points and alot of that could be put down to Chelsea's poor start. I agree that Chelsea are the value


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 752 ✭✭✭redfan


    still think man u aint going to throw away the chance of this double ....
    sticking to my guns


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,373 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    United had a pretty disastrous start too in fairness. As a United fan I'm very wary of this. Think it's Chelsea's title but hoping I'm wrong. No bet for me. Might throw a fiver on Giggs to score purely as a heart over head bet.

    wouldn't touch this one with a bargepole. the only bet i'd consider would be a 1-0 for either side or the under 2,5 goals option. can see it being very like the fa cup final last yesr where one mistake or moment of magic could win it. could go either way.


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


    Hargreaves is 12-1 to score in 90 mins.
    Might throw a fiver on that.
    Other than that its really a coin flip.
    If there was a gun to my head id let em shoot me cause i couldnt call it :D
    Redfan i really hope you are not lumping on.
    You may ultimately be right but its too tight and its practically a coin flip.
    Would you lump on a coin flip?

    Agreed. Have Hargreaves backed to score. Also have Ronaldo because even though he tends to disappear in big games, if there's a penalty or a decent free kick chance it's gonna be him taking it. He doesn't need to be on flying form to bang them in.

    As for result, might throw a small bet on 1-0 either side and 1-1 draw. Very close game.

    Just pointing out that PP are refunding all losers if Ronaldo scores in the ninety minutes. Nice to see them bring this back instead of the usual first goalscorer or correct score refunds that they seem to have adapted as the norm over the years. Win/draw/win bets, ht/ft bets, the lot.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,698 ✭✭✭semibluff


    - 1.5 goals

    Man U to win 1-0

    my two bets

    In other words they think there is no chance in hell he will turn up
    considering its a big game.
    He will probably score a hattrick now :D

    You'll get better odds than that. I' not gonna go searching for ya, but Betfred would give ya 40/1 and 45/1 respectively.

    Cracking odds on Ballack-

    12/1 to be Man of the Match

    6/1 to score ANYTIME


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


    Decided on a draw at half time @ 5-6 with PP.
    Only have €15 on it as otherwise i wouldnt watch the match out of spite :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    Anyone know the odds on Kalou to score anytime? Me being in work and not being able to access PP and all.

    If it's tight he's sure to be brought on when there are a few tired legs and has been known to score the odd few.


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


    14-1 to score first
    11-2 to score anytime with PP

    Really really **** odds when you consider how few goals he scores


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Pj!


    26.0 to score first (betfair) and
    11.5 anytime (betfair).

    Don't know why people accept getting ripped off by bookies.

    Wow, basically double the odds for both!

    TBH the reason I haven't used Betfair is that it doesn't appear to be very user friendly. I haven't spent more than two or three minutes on it so maybe that's why but it doesn't seem to be like a normal betting site or something, in terms of how to navigate.

    If a beginner looks at a race card, they won't have a clue either what it all means but as we know its quite simple once you know.
    Same with betfair. It's not tricky at all. I'm sure there are tutorials or something on the site anyway. Get to it.

  • Registered Users Posts: 212 ✭✭JMB88


    I'm going to go with a scorecast of 2-1 to Man United and anytime goalscorer with Hargreaves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 482 ✭✭Death or Glory


    E100 on Chelsea @ 2/1

  • Registered Users Posts: 508 ✭✭✭Qwerty27


    best price on chelsea to win on penalties?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,124 ✭✭✭homah_7ft


    I see value in Ashlely Cole being shown a card at 4.1. I've put my money where my mouth is :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 349 ✭✭modo85


    gone for malouda first scorer 24\1 wot a price had to take it and joe cole 18\1 another cracking price has to be done


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,386 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    I decided to give in, dispite not being much value, but I think there is some fun to be had on the likely outcome
    So


    Man-Utd to win 2-1 @ 17 - 2
    Man Utd -1 @ 5-1
    and 2 or 3 goals @ evens

    So Utd 2-1 is my baby really

    They've lost any significant profit from the game now.
