That would have been nerveless free money.

I told you yesterday it was buying money

If you'd added it into your bet you'd have a £1k+ now.

Next time eh !!

It's easy to be a genius better after the event, its another thing to have the balls to lay down 5 tons!

Made some money laying Binocular in the Champion Hurdle, the price was far lower than it rightly should have been.

Haven't decided whether to do the same with Master Minded today in the Champion Chase. On the one hand this one is clearly far and away the best horse in the race (unlike Binocular), on the other the odds are mighty skinny. Watching for now, but if they get much skinnier I may not be able to resist.

Probably will be laying Man Utd in the football tonight as well, at least at the start. 0-0 away draws are overrated in European ties, probably it was a better result for Inter than it was for United, especially as United wasted chances to score. Inter will be set up right and look to frustrate early and hit on the break.

I won't touch Inter-United. Firstly, Inter could get jammy and then its a massive uphill struggle for United. But overall, I don't actually fancy them defensively, Chivu is out I believe, and I think if United set a pace like Liverpool did last night the Italians (South Americans) will struggle. But yeah...there is still the jammy/away goal element.

Arsenal to go through is tempting me.

Grant1 · 03-11-2009, 06:51 AM

Evens on the 2 English sides to qualify is bet of the night I believe.

Beeston Brawler · 03-11-2009, 06:55 AM

I'm tempted to lay a small wager on Arsenal as well

TFFP · 03-11-2009, 06:58 AM

Materazzi, Burdisso and Chivu all out for Inter. Samuel only just recovering from a knock.

They could look very soft at the back tonight considering the opportunities United created in the San Siro.

Beeston Brawler · 03-11-2009, 07:00 AM

In that case Scum are worth a fiver as well, unless the odds have changed drastically.

TFFP · 03-11-2009, 07:07 AM

Man Utd to win and Arsenal to draw at 4.5/1. I think that is a reasonable bet for tonight.

Or less risk is both to simply go through at Evens, although really United have to win so United to win and Arsenal to go through at better than evens!

United could still go through after a 0-0 draw over ninety minutes, hence the slight odds discrepency between the two bets.

Aye.

I'm just saying, if I was going to make a bet on that fixture I'd take United outright. Doesn't say much for your confidence in the bet otherwise!

Anybody have any luck tonight?

Won £19.47 on Barca to win.

I sat on my hands all day. Prices were never quite where I wanted them. Which is for the best as the things I considered doing would have been losers...

TFFP · 03-11-2009, 06:00 PM

Lucky escape.

Porto 0 - 0 Athletico....didn't see that coming.

Anyone doing a UEFA Cup bet. Always hard to get these with teams playing weak teams
