    PP


    Holland 11/4
    Draw 11/5
    Spain 11/10

    To say I'm going all out for Spain in every bet I make is an understatement :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,838 ✭✭✭Nulty


    DrawHT/SpainFT @ whatever the odds are

    0-0HT/0-1FT @ whatever the odds are

    I've got Dutch outright so I'll do medium bets on these two and enjoy the game :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 211 ✭✭Stryderman


    I won €200 on the horses today so im lumping on:

    Both teams to score @ 11/10

    and a smaller bet on both teams to score in the 1st half @ 9/2

    I can see a few goals being scored!!:D


  • Moderators Posts: 8,887 ✭✭✭x PyRo


    Sticking all I can get my hands on on the Dutch. Crazy price IMO.

    Crazy price alright, I think Spain will win so I'd have Spain as slight favs but way too short atm. I probably won't go in again on Holland though, just leave it with the antepost bet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,979 ✭✭✭Vurnon San Benito


    Spain for me, not sure what stake yet, but like Headshot, I think I'll lump it on van Bommel being booked as well. Could be up on the hundreds that bet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    Capdevilla booking could be a popular choice.

    Half-time 0-0/Full-time Spain 1-0 is 8/1 at Boylesports. Might be worth a couple of euro considering all of Spain's games in the knockouts have ended like that.

    9/1 on PP. Could be a runner alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,979 ✭✭✭Vurnon San Benito


    Can't see many goals in this game, 1-1 will be the height of it I think probably be 5-4 thriller now! :D )

    I think I'll lump it on Capdevila actually, now that I think of it, and van Bommel too, up against Robben and Xavi & Alonso iirc.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Spain to win and there to be 1 or 2 goals is 3.75 on PP. might have some of that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭Warper


    Im gonna be all over Spain for this - they are 6-5 with Ladbrokes. They have won their last 3 games 1-0 and this could be the same. They have all the ball but dont score much.. Villa 1-0, Spain 1-0 and a LUMP on Spain @ 6-5. If they choke now I will never back Spain again - time to get back some of the Brazil losses.

    Ya I like this too - good spot 11-4 for those others


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,838 ✭✭✭Nulty


    I only took the HT/FT 0-0/0-1 @ 9/1

    Not gonna bother with the Draw/Spain one

    Enjoy the match :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 245 ✭✭Insane Rambling


    Anyone have a price for the Van Bommell yellow card?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,853 ✭✭✭Kod-box


    Paul the Octopus is gonna predict a team to win this, first time he's done it for a match not involving Germany :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 542 ✭✭✭cleremy jarkson


    Can anybody give me a reason why 3-0 to Holland is priced as high as 55-1 on PP? Is the Spanish defence that great? That's definitely worth putting a fiver on from where I'm looking.

    Holland have clawed their way to the Final, winning most of their matches by one goal. Spain have only conceded 2 goals all tournament.

    He's around 6/5 or 2.22 on Betfair to be shown a card at the moment. May put down my biggest bet ever on this happening.

    EDIT: Slapped a 100 on it earlier.

    Hmm, I suppose I was concentrating more on Spain's low scorelines on the path to the final. It seemed to me as though Spain got an easier path to the final than Holland, and didn't come out of their group looking like world champions. They should have won all those matches comfortably, given the players they have. Apart from the scrappy play against Brazil, I thought that Holland looked more like contenders to win the competition.

    I'm wondering though, would Holland not be more hungry to win going into it, seeing as they havn't won a major championship in a long time? I have a feeling that if it was nil-all by about the 70th minute, the dutch would be more likely to knuckle down and clinch it.

    Howard Webb has been confirmed as the referee.

    Spain's possession football is like a second defense. They hold onto the ball so well in the middle that the weaknesses in their back-line aren't tested on a regular basis. Not saying they won't concede but i think 55-1 is about right for a team that passes as well as Spain to concede 3 without scoring.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 576 ✭✭✭Fishyfreak


    I'm doing Holland +1, 10/11 Great odds for a WC Final.

    Also can't get a price on Van Bommell on PP yet, with Webb as referee it must be a cert!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,669 ✭✭✭Colonel Sanders


    Spain are worthy favs here IMO but slightly suprised to see them so short to life the cup. I'd have thought 8/11 Spain (possibly even 4/5).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,979 ✭✭✭Vurnon San Benito


    Paddy's are copping onto van Bommel lads.
    Offering prices on him to be first player booked, and number of fouls. Not good.
