    I'd wait and see whose playing or who's injured before I'd have a bet.

    Saw a good bet in PP's today.
    Ireland, England, Wales, Scotland & N Ireland all to win or draw 2/1.
    Considering Wales, England & Ireland are odds on to win their matches and you get the draw as well, there must be value in it.
    Probably the only possible dodgy one is N Ireland Away to Slovakia but if the other 4 come up, you'll be getting (in effect) 2/1 NI to win or draw!

    That caught my eye as well. Would be worried about the Jocks as well but a tempting one all the same. Have my footy accums done up already so will leave that one alone but good luck with it.

    Might put smallish bets on these four bets for the interest. Singles.

    Armenia v Turkey: Turkey 4/9 Ladbrokes
    Albania v Sweden: Sweden 8/13 Boyles
    Norway v Iceland: Norway 2/5 William Hill
    Spain v Bosnia: Draw 11/2 Paddy Power


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,519 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    Interesting bet there Lao Lao. My only worry there would be Italy. Awful starters to campaigns and Cyprus are not what they used to be. One of the most improved nations of the last couple of years especially at home. They held Germany to a draw in the last qualifiers.

    FYR Macedonia/Georgia double would be sound I think. England/Germany on -2 double maybe.

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 417 ✭✭corban


    thinkin of:

    spain, portugal,sweden wales,croatia and ukraine:

    approx 4/1

    gonna have to think about it though...a lot of games...short odds


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


    A few to think about in England game, the Beckham bet should be worth a punt given the number of free-kicks near the 18 yard area that are likely to be conceeded. Lampard to take the peno if one should happen, Rooney for a red card anyone?

    Anytime goalscorers
    Beckham 3.0
    Defoe 1.5
    Lampard 2.1

    Red card in game 4/1

    3-0 and 4.0 @ 5.5

    FYR Macedonia v Scotland

    Under 2.5 @1.61

    Mike


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    I scored 2 out of 4 for my anytime goalscorer acc last week, hoping for some better luck with this:
    • Healy 3/1
    • Keane 15/ 8
    • Defoe 1/2
    • Pandev 23/10
    *5 euro acc- odds from PP*

    Landed, well done. Italy left it to the 92nd minute and Ukraine left it to the 93rd minute but a win is a win.

    Cheers, was sweating on them two alright but as you said,a win is a win.

    Had also lumped on Ireland away and got very nervous when they got it to 2-1, memories of Israel and Slovakia came flooding back!!

    All I need now is for Nadal to to come back from two sets down and beat Murray to complete my tennis accum and round off a nice weekend :rolleyes:

    Serbia could shock France. Italy are missing back 4 but Georgia are poor.

    Ireland won't lose.

    England to beat Croatia, Rooney to score.

    Best of luck. :pac:

    Went for short odds treble

    Russia

    I strongly fancy Northern Ireland at 10/3.


  • Registered Users Posts: 857 ✭✭✭thedini


    ireland draw no bet @ 8/11 looks good value


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    tonight was very good for me

    i backed

    Iceland v Scotland
    Scotland
    11 - 8 Win
    Montenegro v Ireland
    Draw
    10 - 11 Win
    Northern Ireland v Czech Republic
    Draw
    9 - 4 Win

    only got to do the bets late so the Republic game was terrible odds, but still a 30euro treble returned me €442.07

    couple more bets got me up to a profit of 738euro for the night, cant really ask for much more

    thank you Turkey, Holland and Russia also!
