    Hi,
    Just a quick q... The other day I was in ladbrokes and I had selected a couple of games
    In my mind but they were like a from different leagues( bayer munih, arsenal...) and I couldn't figure out how to place my bet because the list of games on that weekend matchday slip didn't cover all my games ( like bayern was on one page and arsenal was on an other) so how can I place my bet? ( as you can tell I'm a bit of a noon :) but thanks for taking the time to read my question)

    You don't need to use the coupons when placing a bet unless its a coupon specific bet.

    Simply take a normal blank docket and write your selections on there, try and be as clear as possible about what your backing to avoid any confusion.

    Event: Man U v Arsenal
    selection: Man U win
    odds: evens

    Put as many events/selections as you like then at the bottom simply write down your bet type and stake i.e €10 accum; €2 lucky 15.

    Be aware that you can't combine some selections, ie you can't double Man U win and Man U half time/full time on the same event

    I only use a blank docket and to make sure theres no confusion I write:

    "X team to beat Y team 5/4" ..... its important to write the odds at the time of placing the bet - incase they change closer to the game.

    Had an issue last week - during the Euro games I put Zilina/Cluj and Fiorentina to win - in an accumulator and also single bets on each team - but never wrote the opposition....bookie couldnt find who Fiorentina were playing (Sporting Lisbon) ...and put the bet down as Fiorentina v (whoever they were playing at the weekend in league game) ..... I was a bit pissed ...but in the end I blame myself for not making it clear on the docket.

    Eh? Sounds dodgy on the bookies part.
    You should look at a copy of his rules. I'm 99.9% sure that the rules will state that the bet automatically goes onto Fiorentinas next game, which would be the game against Lisbon.
    (they drew both games against Lisbon though, didn't they, so doesn't really matter I guess).
