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.

I've being doing multiples on teams to finish second in their groups. Slightly trickier than finding the winner but much better odds.

USA 13/10
Serbia 15/8
Paraguay 5/4
Chile 6/5

Bit of a random one but Belgium to qualify for Euro 2012. Put £10 on them at 12/1 the other week, & £2.50 each way at 100/1 to win it outright. :shock:

RVP to be Arsenal's leading scorer at evens (on PP anyway) is the bet of the tournament for me.

Get all OVER it!!

Nah you're safe out Frank. Cesc will only score a couple max! The Bar-tneder the same. Our only worry is Eboue scoring back to back hatricks but it's more likely I'll bed all members of Girls Aloud before the day is out than that happening!! (850,000,000,000,000,000,000/1 on Paddy Powers)

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
