The Betting Thread

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

nah, that's thrown my theory out the window...if it was a bloke, he was probably checking you out..

my wife is 27 and always gets asked for ID when she is out with the girls..it's an old trick for a bloke to find out your full name, address, DOB etc, etc
:shock:

I've worked in some bars in my time, guilty as charged

RVP is even money with the Tote to out score Christian Ronaldo at the World cup!
Given Portugal's very hard group this has to be a decent bet :barscarf:

Hope somebody had a punt on the Swiss - and especially at 1-0

The World Cup needed this

Btw if thew woodwork hadn't denied the second goal what would you have gotten for 2-0 Swutzerland - THAT would have been some bet

Right, ere's my tip you wankers. 8) :wink:

South Africa and France double. Definitely can see the Bafana Bafana doing the Uruguayans tonight. Great odds as well for the single if you don't fancy the French. 21/10 :barscarf:
