Better than nothing.

Someone somewhere had £120 on Sweden to draw in play at 999/1 on betfair.

I know they've won the bet, but what would make anyone put £120 on a team that's 4 nil down to Germany?

[EnderbyFox]

Portugal score, 1-1.

Wish i took that bet now!

EDIT: or not

Who the hell had the funds in their account to be able to lay that?!

I said that too. Absolute madness.

I hate f**kers like that. More money than sense

I've had an England/Holland -1 handicap double

£5 pays £54

I thought Paddy Power would void this and pay me out for the Holland game. It seems they haven't and have changed the England KO time to 4pm today. They best not fook it up now!

Too right, need England for 75 quid.

Also had £2 on Gary Cahill/England wincast @ 25/1. Think set pieces could be key today.

Had England draw and notts county to win

£10 returns 85

[marty78]

Lewandowski 1st scorer and Poland 2-1 - £5 @ 50/1

Rooney 1st scorer and Poland 2-1 - £5 @ 75/1

Had another £5 on Jagielka to score 1st @ 40/1

Had that yesterday. Moral of the story is always wait until teams are announced before goalscorer bets...

1-1 think they'll score again though

[ScouseFox]

Laid England @ 1.4 (2/5) for £15 on about the hour.

So either end up in £15 profit or £70 profit. The latter would be prefered . Come on England.

[foxfanazer]

Come on then Notts County!!

Just incase anyone doesn't know, Betfred are offering a £10 free bet with no deposit required currently. For new members only

I did this yesterday, & now have the £10 'free balance' in my account. However, when i try to place a bet using the free tenner it just says i have insufficient funds in my account.

Germany absolutely killed me last night!

Are you ticking the box that says "Place using free balance" ?

Leeds are 2/1 on PaddyPower to beat Wednesday, great price tbh

Lamby coming to his senses? Maybe. Both teams to score will no doubt come in will be about 4/6 though.

[Lamby]

Leeds

Inverness

Northampton

£2.50 returns £37.95

Celtic

Blackburn

Leicester

Southend

£2.50 returns £57.86

Free £5 on Leeds returns £10 (including free stake out)

Got given a free £5 bet from Skybet to try and entice me back to them, so going to stick it on something Lamby-esque

Liverpool vs Reading

Fleetwood Town vs AFC Wimbledon

Swindon vs Scunthorpe

Manchester United vs Stoke

Fulham vs Aston Villa

Port Vale vs Wycombe

£5 returns £67.65

All should win, but i'm not very optimistic

Does anyone fancy Reading to get something at Liverpool?

[foxfanazer]

No.

[Simo86]

Free £10 bet from Betfred.

Stuck it on Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal and Man City

Makes me just over £35 if it comes in.

Also stuck £5 on an Arsenal/Man City double both with a -1 handicap.

Pays £35

Free bets galore in here today haha.

Got a fiver free so put it on 6 "bankers".

Liverpool, United, Arsenal, Swindon, Fleetwood & Celtic @ about 10/1.

Also had a few quid on a few risky ones who I reckon are pretty overpriced. Mainly Chelsea who are almost 2/1 to beat Spurs.

Spurs v Chelsea

Fulham v Villa

Hull v Ipswich

Gillingham v Burton

York v Daggers

@ about 38/1.
