The Betting Thread

Ante-post prices for the SPL and the English leagues have been released. Celtic are odds on to win the SPL, Man Utd are favourites for the EPL at 5/4.  QPR are favourites for the Championship at 6/1 and Leeds are ridiculously short priced for League One at 3/1.

 

Do any of you ever put anything on League Champions or Relegated teams at the start of the season?

 

Mods - any chance of getting this as a sticky, so we can see what selections people are taking throughout the season? Cheers.

Anybody got a decent tip for tonight?

 

I've gotta £25 money back if you loose bet for tonight, and i'd rather not lump it all on Killie.

TASMEEM 4.30 Chester looks a not bad punt at good enough odds.

2 55 NOTT…YURITUNI….16/1 GUARANTEED HILLS/ STAN JAMES

Been running over 5f recently though as a 2yo showed a liking for 6/7f…I think todays trip will suit.

The trainer / jockey combo reads…2…0…1…2…1…2…1

When the jockey has ridden this horse it reads…1…2…1..2

OFF CHOICE - 2.50 ASC

 

Trainer in form and doesn't often take horses south.

My mans tips lately have been shyte, apologies.

 

Never known a losing streak like this one, hopefully settle down as we get further into the flat season.

Probably going to put on a portsmouth and ross county double

Portsmouth+2 is better than evens at hills. Quite like the look of that.

Pompey +1 at 9/2. Thats surely pretty good odds. No very good at handicap betting so would Chelsea need to win by 2 for the bet come in or just win by anything more than 2?

Pompey+1 would mean that if it ends in a draw or Portsmouth win then you win.

 

Pompey +2 means that if they lose by 1, draw or win the game, you win.

For your sake, I hope you put that on!  :thumbsup:

Certainly did. Also had a couple of nuggets on the following double:

 

Draw ht United ft 3/1

Draw ht Chelseahunwanks ft 3/1

 

which was a nice wee boost too.

Got 11/10 utd 5 minutes after half time, only put £30 on but knew it was a cert, kicking myself for not wading right in.

Johnstone lad - CURR 2.10, been layed out for this race, run really well the last 2 races but not pushed too much.  ;)

sentimental as in that's a double that's come up for you before?  ???

No for all the great memories both games provided back in 2007.  Still get goosebumps over FC Copenhagen performance whenever I see the goals.

What odds did you get for that?

It was 7/4 for -2, can't remember the -3 odds. Only a wee profit in the end.

  • 2 weeks later...

Aberdeen, ICT, Hearts, Livi, Spurs -1

 

Pays around 20/1

Similarly, I've gone for ICT, Raith, Rotherham and Hearts at 18/1 (Paddy Power)

Manchester City - Red Bull Salzburg v Manchester City - @ 8/11 

Az Alkmaar - Az Alkmaar v Sheriff Tiraspol  @ 8/15
