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.

Agreed, as long as you bet no more that you can afford it isn't a problem.
Betting on the game makes random matches or an afternoon watching Saturday more exciting.

True the bookies nearly always win but as long as you don't bet ridiculous amounts money that you haven't got, it's all a bit of fun.

Incidentally I actually won this weekend backing over 3.5 goals in the Villa/Reading game.

But no, I don't win every week! And dread to think how much I have lost over the years!

I'll be having a tipple on a Portsmouth win at Anfield (12-1)

Liverpool are in shocking form and with Portsmouth playing with a kind of c'est la vie attitude it could well be a winner!!
