Dead on. Just got Palace at 16/5 and a draw at 5/2, stuck a fiver on both.
I do hate betting against them like that, because if they win I lose money, and those scumbags get points. Lose/lose.
Although I'd be fairly confident Palace will get something.
Aye, same feeling when betting on LFC to win....if they don't it's doubly annoying. Fingers crossed Palace get the job done for us.

Just got Everton at 7/1. Probably a crap bet since they're 1-0 down with half an hour left, but stuck a fiver on it anyway.
 
£5 Creswell 1st goal @ 50/1 and £6 Collins 1st goals @ £55/1 Villa v West Ham

£20 Burnley to win at Hull @ 7/2 and £4 Matt Taylor 1st goal @ 48/1

£4 Wasewleski 1st goal @ 55/1 Leicester v Saints

£4 Dawson & Lescott 1st goal @ 40/1 and £5 McAuley @ 33/1 Toon v West Brom
 
Not a bad win on Burnley there, congrats mate!
Thanks C/O. My main bet, the lay of United, is going well so far; I've sold the liability on the bet and win £150+ on either Palace or the draw.
 
Well befair through a hissy and wouldn't let me finaalize the bets in my slip as my account needed to be authorised.. hasn't stopped them before now but fuck it it turns out I'd have spunked my lot if they'd let me bet so their loss!
 
Anyone going to do the obviously bad bet of Bayern to go through tomorrow?

I'm surprised they're only giving 12/1.

Bayern are 22/1 to qualify on Betfair.

I win £850 if Barca go through and am not tempted to lock in a profit now as I can't see anyway Bayern can get back into this. I'll wait to see the team news, if Neymar, Suarez and Messi all start then I definitely won't "cash out" the bet.

Yea Barca will score, so that'd leave Bayern needing 5, which won't happen. Well done on the £850. You thinking of putting anything else on? There's not much of a market tonight apart from first scorer, or as HC said btts.

I think I'm done for the season now C/O. Thanks to Barca (as long as they don't fuck up tonight) I've managed to make a very small profit this season and I'm happy enough with that. I'll do a few more first goalscorer bets at the weekend but I reckon that'll be about it.

Smart man. I'm thinking I'll be doing the same myself unless I get a tip on a horse or something. Like you've said before, every game at this stage of the year is a lottery. Good to hear you made a profit overall though!

Cheer C/O, although the profit this season and last season has been minimal. A few years ago I was making £3k minimum per season and usually £5k+ but I think marriage and fatherhood has changed that...........I no longer have the time to do the level of research needed (i.e. watching all televised lower league games, checking various forums for info about new signings, loans, injuries, suspensions and which players are in form or suffering a dip in form.)

As my wife is talking about us having another kid I don't see my betting form returning to previous glories anytime soon.
 
Such is life my man. I'm (we're) finally going to be living in a settled fashion in a few months, buying a house etc after years of travelling around. I know she's going to be on for marriage and kids. I can see it in her eyes.
In the spirit of the thread, I'd give myself about 1/5 odds of seeing out the year with work as my only responsibility.

Well your last tip came in so the 1/5 could be like "buying money" :)

I can thoroughly recommend the whole marriage/parenthood "game" though.......no idea why I was so against the idea for so many years.

I've done a smallish lay of Munich winning and £5 on the 2-3 scoreline @ 30/1
 
Ben Kennedy 1st goal for Stevenage v Southend @ 13/1.....18 year old, very highly rated and lots of EPL teams looking st him apparently. I haven't seen him play yet so am just taking a chance based on his goalscoring record and reputation.
 
£10 Caulker 1st goal QPR v Toon @ 37/1
£6 Waselewski 1st goal Sunderland v Leicester @ 55/1
£4 Michael Dawson 1st goal Spurs v Hull @ 65/1
£10 Collins 1st goal Hammers v Everton @ 45/1
£8 on Downing and £6 Creswell 1st goal @ 24/1 and 50/1 respectively....bets as yet unmatched.

The Downing & Cresswell bets weren't taken and the prices were going down so I cancelled them and stuck another £10 on Collins @ 15/1 anytime goalscorer..........dunno why but I have a feeling in my water about him scoring today.
 
Arf! Think I've gone a bit mad on the James Collins bets; between 1st goal and anytime goal I win about £1,600 if he does both. Bet he'll be taken off injured after 2 minutes.

Hahaha, I should have bet on him coming off early......subbed off injured on 15 minutes!
 
Unlucky Pesam!

This is my acca for today.

Utd draw, Barca, Real Madrid, Sevilla, Roma, Valencia, Real Vellecano.

Utd game down already, and put a tenner on it overall at roughly 43/1.
 
Just for a bit of fun.
20 on Elliot Bennett to score first 18-1 Norwich vs Boro.
 
Norwich 2-0 Boro after 53 minutes............£12 lay of Norwich winning in 90 minutes to win £100
