It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

But Joe you seem to have forgotten Chelsky in that list -):

Won on Arsenal, ManU and Chelsea 2nd goal but lost on Spurs....going for Man C away....

Rf, you might want to have a change of career as your footy bets are not doing your finances any good! Sunderland won v Man C.
Arsenal, Chelsea & Man U odds were so short you would have needed to put on a bundle to make any decent money.
I can't believe the number of injuries each of the top teams have (excl Liverpool). On the Physioroom website they are listing 4-6 guys out per team & we are only 3 weeks in to the season!

Good news for England that Lampard and Terry are out imo ... but Terry looked allright to me when he left the pitch at the end of the match v Stoke , hmmmm.

braindead posting alert

you've bought the media line (Gerard is great - lamps is rubbish) - look at the stats or if you've any footballing knowledge look at the 2 play and see which one is the more effective.

And JT did in fact play with an injury, setting up the first goal in style.

You should ask yourself why the muppet Fabio, can't get this out of his players - perhaps he just is nowhere as good as portrayed.

Harrycat...since I've been posting some of my bets : I've been losing.....only bet 10...maximum 20.....win 2 or 3 bets and lose the fourth one....standing still....might just pick one team and stick with them as too many picks seems to make losses.....

Sod's law rf! I used to do an accumulator down at the local Corals, with 7 games selected. 2 nearly always let me down. So I changed to doing only 5 games and then 1 result would always let me down! Of course the bookies know the odds of winning are slim, but it doesn't stop us mugs from gambling!!!
Part of the problem for me was that I used to sit & watch Jeff Stelling on Sky sports news on a sat afternoon on Freeview, with his team of ex-footballers. Now they have stopped the Freeview transmission, so I have stopped doing the footy bets for the moment.

Better chance if you only pick 3 dead certs, including 1 of the old firm albeit Rangers as opposed to Celtic. Not easy to predict scorecast but obviously better odds. Player to score at anytime has been good for me. Good odds also for Rooney to score a hat trick, it will happen eventually :o))))

Rooney was brilliant the other night ......hope he plays on tuesday......the game looks like a banana skin to me.....

Joe Say , England looked a lot better without your bum chums Terry and Lampard ... bet the training camp was a nicer place too.

Best thing Capello could do is never pick them again imo.

Agreed Dil pair of shit stirring knobheads, they were certainly not missed. Rooney was asked to do a job and he was superb!

Perhaps : Rooney in midfield with Crouchy and Defoe up front ?....

Another one on the BLACK list ......

Higgins Admits Match Fixing: Sky Sources Share Share Comments
Ian Collier, Sky News Online

Snooker star John Higgins and his manager have admitted match-fixing, according to Sky News sources.

Higgins was caught in a News of the World investigation

The World Champion and his representative Pat Mooney initially denied all the allegations.

But in a dramtic turnaround the pair has accepted that all of the claims in the News of the World undercover report.

They have now admitted claims they offered to submit to bribes from undercover reporters in Kiev, Ukraine, in exchange for almost 300,000 in kickbacks.

Wrong thread old fruit -):

30 quid on England tonight.....a bit risky I might add....but the odds are good....

England should top their group....lucky Scotland....goal in the 97th minute.....and the Czech Republic losing......play offs a possibility.....

scotland need to take a look at themselves.......shocking...absolutely shocking.

but one of the worst things about tonight were some of the tackles going in from what are amateur footballers.....some scotland players nearly ended their careers (with the tackles and the result) ther was an absolute shocker on Hutton towards the end

Rf, what were the odds? Odds on surely, so not exactly risky!

Evens+ was available Harry.

Joe Say's gone quiet ...... 2 under performers from Chelsea out again and what a result !
