Having a dabble on a Luton & Wrexham double tonight in the conference @ 2.81.
Considering adding Forest Green in there for a treble at around 5.6.

Kidderminster is my pick tonight.
Not me 
But it does actually seem to happen more than usual.
But it does actually seem to happen more than usual.I added them to my accy! Slow games tonight, hardly any goals. Infact, just that one goal in the conference.
Forest Green losing aswell! This fecking thread!
Trainwreck of football for me tonight Nothing has went right! Thank god tennis is kicking about.

Exactly the same with me. I hate this thread.
Regarding the Eng-Sco game, I spent the whole first half up until Sterling scored saying he would score. Every time he got the ball he was in yards of space. Was too lazy to put the money on it though.
Typical - the bet I didn't place in here turned out to be a successful one.
Treble of a Belgian team called Wil, Grimsby and Luton. 5/1 ish.

Which betting sites are you guys using? I got the betting chills back, and I want to bet a bit. I was using bwin, but had some problems with them canceling bets that were clearly won, so don't want to go back there. I'm mainly betting football, and if possible MMA/UFC.
I use bwin and willhill. I prefer whill for the interface, choice of games, and odds, but I've experienced winning bets being quietly marked as losers on both willhill and bet365 (which I don't use anymore).
Thanks. Seems they all do this shit... I was leaning towards bet365, how come you left it?
Because I left the UK, and bet365 don't allow accounts in France.
I think I prefered bet365 the most, though. They have a fantastic interface, good odds, and a very wide variety of games.
I'm livid and happy.
Bad news first. I looked at fixtures, and went for Inverness to beat Dundee United away (Success) as well as a draw (to which I thought was) Bolton vs Reading.
That game ended in a draw. But, what I did was when I was looking for the match, I did "ctrl+f > bolton" on the site, and it landed on Nottingham Forest vs Bolton that's next week. So that bet is still open, but I should have won it
Either way - had a treble of Dortmund, Watford and Leyton Orient. Success £10 on that. So £45ish on that.
Plus, I have a 5-fold still going of Dortmund, Leverkusen, Blackpool (all three have won) with Lyon and Porto to win tonight. 9/1 £10 on it.
I did it again. I looked at my open bets, and noticed my Kidderminster bet was still there. I thought "Stupid website". I then notice that I ended up doing the exact same blunder as I did with the first post. I ctrl+f Kidderminster, and it came up with BRAINTREE vs Kidderminster, which is on Saturday
I'm pleased because Kidderminster lost last night - but I seriously need to pay more attention to what I'm looking at
But yeah, doing well on the Japan-Uruguay game. Japan haven't been great at home recently - and with Suarez and Forlan leading the attack, I was frothing at the mouth when I saw Uruguay NOT being odds on. So I had Forlan and Suarez to score first - Forlan scored first, so I made a profit on that. I also had Uruguay to win draw-no-bet (just in case) and they are leading 4-1 at the moment. Finally, I had Suarez to score and Urguay to win at 33/10. Easy.
Couple of coupons for tonight. A £5 treble of Columbia, USA and Ukraine. A £5 long shot of Austria, Belgium, Croatia -2, Scotland +2, Iceland, Germany and Brazil.
I THINK USA are without Donovan and Dempsey tonight.
That's that done then. I'm sure I read somewhere if they win they break some sort of most consecutive wins record. Could be wrong. If its true I think they'll take it seriously.
What does everyone think of:
Germany (Paraguay)
England (Scotland)
(Switzerland) Brazil
(Ecuador) Spain
Get better than 5/1 on it, worth a punt?
Edit: Could add something like Ukraine if you're feeling lucky, get better than 8/1 for that.

I never back Spain, they are always capable of getting freak results and often struggle to score every time I put them on. I'm also wary to put England on (I'm Scottish) but also because I can't see their players taking it seriously so close to the start of the season.
I haven't seen the odds yet but I'd like to see how big Belgium are to best France tonight. They have a superb first XI and look a good bet tonight.
13/10
Cheers, mate. I'll be putting them in to whatever accumulator I do later on.
No problem, I've got them on. I imagine their price will come down later on.
Might go for a Brazil, Ukraine, Belgium, Germany then.
Egypt (1-0 currently), Brazil, Germany, Croatia, Colombia for me. I think 5/1 or 6/1 - betvictor doesn't show the accumulator odds after you've made the bet.
Also went for a bundle of Albania, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia at 13/1.

Scotland 15/2 to get 3 or more cards. Seems like very good value. (Willy Hill)
I've never been one for yellow cards - some might say the anti-Decotron - but it's not a bad shout to be fair. Although, it's a friendly so will the referee be that card-happy?
That's the only problem with that bet tonight. If Caldwell was playing I'd have had him to get a card, especially with Rooney & Wilshere starting.
Don't know where my money is going tonight yet.
That was the problem. Especially with it close to the season, maybe predicting challenges to go flying in is a bit optimistic. I could see Hanley, Hutton and Brown all getting booked however.
I'm wanting an coupon on but not sure. Was looking at Colombia, Belgium, Ukraine, Brazil and Italy at about 26/1. Belgium and Italy might be a bit hopeful though.

Went with Rooney to score, and Rooney to get booked, was going to go Brown for a booking too, but his odds were down at 2.22.
Scotlands CB's arent even on betfair.

Hoolahan and Walter to score anytime 13/2 & 10/3
Wilson 6/1 Whelan 5/1 to be booked anytime
Hutton 3/1 and Snodgrass 3/1 to be booked anytime
Welbeck to score anytime 4/1
Rooney 7/5 to score anytime
Wilson 6/1 Whelan 5/1 to be booked anytime
Hutton 3/1 and Snodgrass 3/1 to be booked anytime
Welbeck to score anytime 4/1
Rooney 7/5 to score anytime
Dzeko to score first. Placed a £10 on it 5 minutes in at 4/1. He scores 3 minutes later. Tidy.
Good call that, mind you it didn't look too hot when Bosnia were 2 nil up against USA
Or when Columbia were 0-0 after 89 minutes. Going through a decent spell right now. £60 back for it.
£10 single on Colombia got my money back. My coupon was shit.
Had a serious bet on England seconds before they scored the first equaliser. Poxy thing didn't go through, went back in at 9/4 when it was 2-1 to Scotland so cant really complain.
