Hurling and Gaelic.

I'm heading down to the bookies on my break and will give you a treble if you fancy another shot in the dark.

I've followed your tipperary tip, I've got it as the last thing in a small accumulator, if you're right I win £35

What's this treble?

[FoxyPV]

Not worthwhile with the odds and handicaps that Paddy Power are giving.

Put a £10 on

Tipp 4/6

Roscommon -7 5/6 (unsure about this one)

Down 11/10 (touch and go)

which should pay out £61.

League of Ireland - Derry City and Cork City at 4/6 each i think may be worth a punt. The odds may be better than that on the website (maybe 4/5)

Fuck me!

On such a shit run, not had even a sniff of a win in ages, think my last win(s) was probably Cheltenham Festival and that was a struggle at the start of the week made profit in the end but not anything amazing, Need a humongous win soon to make up

Tipp 4/6

Roscommon -7 5/6

Down 11/10

What an abject performance - useless fooking cvnts. They have resorted to argy bargy now in the last 5 minutes.

Apologies all round

Nigeria/Colombia - Draw

Tunisia/France - France

Chile/Northern Ireland - Chile

Nigeria game postponed, what happens to bets on the match?

Single bets - Refunded stake, similar to a non-runner in horse race betting.

Double, Treble, Accumulator Bets - Stand minus the bet on Nigeria (So a double reduces to a single, treble reduces to a double, and accumlator is all the teams minus Nigeria)

Cheers for that

Just bet on Bangledesh to win at 50/1 - has to be worth a punt, England are always capable of a batting colapse, and they're 150 ahead - question is will they back themselves to bowl England out?

[Head Honcho]

van Persie you twat! Just cost me £77

[Tilley]

£10 on Dalglish to be next Liverpool manager, 9/2.

[J.Lisemore]

50p on

Spain v South Korea - Draw

Italy v Mexico - Draw

Germany v Bosnia - Germany win.

Hammarby v Trelleborg - Hammarby win.

Returns £29

[Asha]

Stuck a few quid on Drogba to be top scorer yesterday....will they return all bets on him now he's crocked?

Probably not.

Mayo -2 4/5

Limerick -2 10/11

Armagh 5/6

Put £5 on and will hopefully pay out £30 odds

[Matt]

Another weekend, another shite selection of bets I made.

[Jimothy]

Had a bit of an impulse bet on Schiavone winning the French Open, and won £30.

[iBleedLeicesterColours]

Just put a £5er each on Luis Fabiano and/or David Villa to win the golden boot at WC. £5 on Villa returns £40 and £5 on LF returns £60.

Gotta good chance seein as Spain face Chile,Switzerland and Honduras. Plenty of goals there for Villa and I expect Spain to go all the way.

[dandannieldanok]

South Korea to reach at least the last 16 (or basically just qualify from their group) @ 9/4. A steal at that price imo. Argentina should top the group but I'd fancy South Korea to turn over the Greeks and Nigerians, they're an underrated team.

Guarantee You don't know more than 2 players without lookin

Now my Drogba bet looks a write-off, I've stuck a few quid on Gilardino to be top scorer at 33/1.

Good work Thought about it myself later on ...

I worked it out that Italy, Spain, England have the easiest groups so an early chance for Gilardino, dI natale, rooney and torres and villa to get some goals under there belt.

However I think Brazil will score against anyone and will be in the final so plenty of time for Fabiano.

That's untrue but even if I didn't know any of them I know they're a decent side and I know that both Nigeria and Greece are deeply flawed. Nigeria for all their talent are not a strong team unit and don't score many goals, Greece have looked an ageing, poor unit ever since winning Euro 2004, I'm surprised they qualified. By all means bet on Nigeria and Greece, we'll see what happens.

Kanu has apparently guaranteed semi finals, maybe finals for Nigeria

Anyway, i've been boring placed my money on Brazil to win. Had Fabiano to win the Golden Boot too.

Also intend on putting a pound on every match, not quite sure why.

[Ozwin]

Pick all the favourites to win each group and you get about 20/1. Worth a few quid.
