Probably pish thats what !! But you never know , if we didnt believe we could turn water to wine we wouldnt bet at all , thats what its all about ! Anyway , i managed to salvage £12.13 out of last nights shit game ,and its all i have to my name for the time being , so its time to start that £12.13 challenge !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anything will do as long as its short enough
Bet 1) Arctic Echo to place 12:20 Sedgefield £12.13 @ 1.38 to win £4.39
Arctic Echo comes home alone to get me off to a flyer , the bank now stands at £16.52 , and to add a little boost to the coffers ive just recieved a call from Betfair promotions asking why id not used my betfair account for 4 years , i said i got a new account when i moved house last year ,so the bloke said no worries we were going to give you a free £10 bet but i`ll just move it over to your current account so when you bet £10 on your current account you`ll trigger a free £10 added to your balance as a goodwill gesture . So when i do my next bet i`ll hopefully get an extra £10 to the balance !! Nice things do happen sometimes :drums
Im away for my tea and some football study , back later with bet 2 !!
Barcelona to beat Werder Bremen £16.52 @ 1.52 to win £8.02
Barca MUST win to go through and no past winner has ever gone out in the group stages , also Werder cant defend for toffee and are sure to concede here , probably more than once ! German teams have a shocking record is spain over the years ,and for me 1.48 is tantamount to stealing money
stay lucky

That could be a dangerous bet Kiko, both teams only need a draw to qualify
Nice going MITK
Realise that but still them odds for at least 1 goal is too high imo.
Have to remember fans will be paying ridiculous prices to watch, many even travelling over and they are hardly going to be wanting to watch an uneventful game with two sides doing nothing.
I do think it will be goals in it with 1-1 very possible.
What the fans want and what the fans get are two different things though. Arsenals away form in Europe when they don't have to win isn't great. It's not great when they do have to win! Saying that, I agree 1.32 is too big and when Betfair decide to put the site back up, I think I'll have a small amount of that.
Cross Of Lorraine bolts in and the bank is now £39.15 , slowly slowly getting interesting
Regarding the Arsenal game for me the draw odds are ridiculously low ,and 0-0 at 9/4 has got to be the lay of the century !! Remember its Arsenal who want the draw to see off CSKA , an Arsenal team with no Henry ,who struggled to beat deflated Hamburg home and away , a team who lost in Russia , a team who drew 0-0 with CSKA when they should of won 7-0 . Theres too many things to go wrong that make the 4/6 draw an awful bet . If hamburg take the lead ,this game then suddenly becomes a winner takes the group game , if Porto sneak a lead Arsenal will need to come out meaning Porto could get a 2nd , Believe me Porto are a different animal at home ,and if Arsenal go for the point they could get stuffed by 2 , this will not be the same team we saw at highbury , this team will attack attack attack .
