    That's a joke I mean this should be an exception a player coming on in the last 10 mins when the game is won soo ****ing annoying that as I say I hope the Germans get what they deserve:mad:, I mean thats the same as doing this particular bet in a single and losing it which would be even more frustrating.
    if only the bookies were actually the friendly cuddly folk their ads led you to believe. Hang around and you will have many more issues that defy logic in their t&c.

    I had it as part of an accum with Boyles so if their was any chance theirs absolutely none with them when it comes to T&C's.

    Lads, I'm gonna get nearly 400 2mrw if Spain beat france.... had an accum from a while ago (forgive the semi after timing) anyway I'm thinking of sticking a 100 on the draw to guarantee a nice profit (original stake was 50) I just can't see Spain losing....
    what ye reckon?

    For me, accums always seem to fall apart at the very last hurdle. I would be thinking of some cover too - but Spain should really win. Crazier things have happened in the last few days though!

    Seeing as Spain had the easier run to the Qs, and France were at least tested in the knockouts. France might be more ready for a testing game than Spain are - at least in the early period of the game. There could be a small chance of a upset because of that (although I thought the same about Germany today, and that proved wrong).

    Open a Betfair account and Lay Spain at 4/5 for about €120. If Spain win you'll get 400-120=280 profit. Betfair will also give you €30 of it back if it's your first bet. If Spain lose you'll make €150 profit on Betfair, minus cost of your accum. Don't take the chance of France getting a poxy goal and holding out. See: Chelsea vs Barcelona

    that big payday approach is the wrong way to do it. Small consistant profits over the season is the way to go. Look at the effect of compound interest.

    about a 15-20% chance you lose e150 imo.

    if you are going to lock in a profit you would be better off laying spain on betfair than backing the draw in the bookies.

    Definitely agree with this. You should be in a no lose situation now. Laying Spain (liability €100 or thereabouts) should guarantee profit, no sweat. In your situation I would mos def do the aforementioned, then have a couple of ew fgs bets, benzema (due a goal) , fabregas etc depending on lineups.

    He could always just bet about a 100 on France +1 @evens on PaddyPower

    he could but that would be a worse solution than laying spain


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,071 ✭✭✭BQQ


    Alonso might be taking penos for Spain (Has taken pen for Spain before and regular taker Villa is missing).

    16/1 FGS 13/2 AGS


    Cabaye to be booked @2/1 first card @14/1. Will be outclassed by Spanish midfield and no stranger to bad tackles.

    Spain/England double @ 9/2

    €10 pays €55

    5.39 using Betfair lay prices

    Anyone have any idea what odds St Ledger was to be Ireland’s top scorer?

    Apartently Spain have never won a competitve game against France

    Batistuta put up Dunne @ 25/1 earlier on this thread (link below) so presumably St Leger was probably 28/1 or you might have gotten 33/1 somewhere

    Yeah, I'm sure he is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,377 ✭✭✭Smithwicks Man


    Going with Spain @ 5/6.

    France looked poor against Sweden and that led to problems in the camp after the game. I don't think they're a good team unit and without Mexes their defence looks even more fragile and vulnerable. I know Spain haven't got a good record against France but I think that will change tonight.

    Don't think the odds on Spain will shorten much so I'll wait for the line-ups before I bet , but I'm with Spain on this one.

    PS. I don't like the PP enhanced double with England , not good value in my opinion... Can't see England winning in 90 mins if they do win at all.

    Putting a cheeky 2e on inesta 1-0 @ 40-1

    I presume all each way bets on the top scorer paid out as everybody other than St Ledger was joint second.

    What if someone had backed Given?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,687 ✭✭✭stingerro


    Going fairly big for 0:0 at HT.

    I doubt it. I would imagine you would not be paid out unless your player had scored. There is no way bookies would pay out on the whole squad.

    Spain v France

    under 2.5 goals 1/2

    2nd Half to have more goals 11/10

    He's on the bench.

    Lloris (cap) – Réveillère – Koscielny, Rami, Clichy – Debuchy, Cabaye, Malouda, M’Vila – Benzema, Ribéry

    very defensive line up with both Reveillere and Debuchy in the team.

    Tiny stake on Benzema first goalscorer @ 9.00
