Betting thread - Season 11/12

Post by mattyj3nks »

So as the new season is about to start i thought id set up a betting thread for those of us that place football bets, its a way of adding some excitement to the football season as im sure a few are getting annoyed before its even started.

So what are peoples bets for Saturday (13th August)......

Ive only looked at the premiership so far and noticed that only 1 team is odda against which is Liverpool so there is some money to be made.

I like the look of:
qpr v BOLTON @ 21/10
WIGAN v norwich @ 6/5
newcastle v ARSENAL @ 21/20 (i know there will be doubters)

I havent had a look at the Championship, League 1 or 2 yet but will later to put together some 7-8 team accumulators (hopefully i can find a 420/1 like i did in March).

So lets use this thread to give our thoughts/predictions to help each other out and hopefully make some money!!

These are some Arsenal specials I was looking at on PP -

1/4 for us to finish potless

10/1 to win the league

750/1 to get relegated :shock:

25/1 Turnip to be first manager sacked

5/2 to win a trophy

15/2 Wenger not to be in charge on last day (great bet in my opinion)

Would you think is a stupid idea to back arsenal away at newcastle tomorrow?

I think even though we have a few players out we should surely be good enough to beat these, with them selling Nolan i can really see them struggling!!

I've got a tenner on Steve Stricker EW. At 28/1 in the PGA golf, also have a fiver each way on D.A Points in the golf at 300/1.
Will probably leave the footy this weekend as the results often tend to be a bit freaky on opening weekend.
