    I was thinking of putting on a 50p bet on football on about 16 teams as an accumulator but don't really know what teams to pick and just wondering if anyone had a good selection of teams to pick. I will probably be picking UK teams

    Eh??? Pick teams you think will win (or draw) not exactly rocket science. Getting 16 up is a near impossibility

    Is it though? If you did it every week for a season 50p on two matches from 8 different divisions surely you'd be in with a decent chance(maybe not picking who will win but bts/over 2.5) I think its possible but really have to put a good bit of thought into it.

    Best advice i can give regarding accumulators is to back 2 or 3 garunteed wins like manu at home to reading then one outside bet.

    There's a reason that such bets usually are 10,000/1 odds...

    You'd probably be better off trying to take that 50p, and doubling it via a single well researched bet and building it slowly from there.
