Why oh why does it still say Germany Sweden is still going? It's 4-3 now as well! Should have finished ages ago! Skybet stating the kick off time as half an hour early apparently! I was born in Berlin, come on ze Germans!
Skybet have declared the England match void. Portugal had better step up!

It's all your fault!!!bloody Germany!
Then again they messed up my accumulator with the other 3...
On the plus the nights gambling is saved with 8 quid on on Sweden pulling that last one back
Was this aimed at me?
As Euro 2012 and the football season are now done and dusted, I think it's time to get a new one underway!
Remember this isn't just for football, share your wisdom and tips and hopefully between us we can mug the bookies for a nice sum as several of us did with the Estonian cup games a few weeks ago
The first game I have to point out is FC Twente vs UE Santa Coloma in the Europa League qualifiers tomorrow. UE Santa Coloma were the ANDORRAN league runners-up, and for some kind of reference of their skill level, the league winners lost 8-0 away at Valletta, the Maltese league winners yesterday. This could be a right mauling. Ladbrokes are offering 33/1 for 9-0, 66/1 for 10-0, 150/1 for 11-0 and 225/1 for 12-0, I'm having £2 on each.
Santa Coloma's record in Europa: 10/11 Lost 0-2 and 0-3 to FK Mogren from Montenegro, 11/12 lost 0-1 and 0-4 to Paksi from Hungary.
indeed
GermanyWonder what the odds were for a draw when Germany were 4 -0 up.
1,000/1 on betfair, someone had £2 on it. Also matched from 570/1 up to 990/1.
Used MissChief's bets and amended a little. Bloody Germany/Spain/Portugal let me down. Some lucky bugger supposedly put £20 on the Germany game to end 4-4 at HT, 50/1
50/1? They got ripped off tbh, if you played that 1000 times that'd be the one times its happened.
indeed
I don't bet to a % of my bankroll tbh. I bet what I feel like! I'll set myself £50 a month to play with, if I build a bank up to 250-300 then I'll withdraw it and carry on with my original 50. Biggest wins are close, low-ranked womens tennis games. So often it's a 3-setter. The following happens a lot too:
Example: Player 1 is 4/6, Player 2 is 11/10 pre-match.
Player 2 wins the first set 6-2. Player 1 is now 9/4, Player 2 is now 1/3.
I'll put £20 on Player 1 at this point. Often it's about timing too. In-play betting is easily the best way to get a BR built up. In those tennis games there is time to come back. Portugal were 9/4 at 1-1 with NI last night with 2 mins to go. That's a big risk for one thing to happen in a short space of time, whereas the tennis has the potential to to-and-fro and has a lot of components to each match.
Huge fan of in-play betting.
Thankfully cashed in £28.30 of the maximum £30 available on the Germany game at half-time last night, but lost £16.00 by pulling the plug in my Russia to win vs Azerbaijan bet - they left it too late and I got twitchy!.
My bet for today is to "Lay" against Poland, as ironically this is 1.31 on betfair, as opposed to "double chance England" at 1.29 - despite being identical bets!.
