Re: Sweden vs. San Marino.
Sweden 6 - 0 San Marino. Win! :clap I'm off to a good start anyway, so a good day today, with Ireland winning and topping the group. I'm looking into this weekend's matches at the moment. I think I'll only make the one bet, as I don't have a lot of time on my hands. From what I can see so far, I'm liking the look of Tottenham to beat West Brom @2.12 with Canbet.I was going to wait until after the internationals to place my first bet, but I'm going to start with something small to get the ball rolling. Sweden vs. San Marino. Sweden to keep a clean sheet @1.44. (William Hill) The odds of 1.44 aren't great, but I feel they are too generous in this case. San Marino, the whipping boys of Europe, travel to Stockholm to take on Sweden in a Euro 2012 Qualifier. Sweden are developing into a good team under Erik Hamren and have won their last five matches, scoring eleven goals and conceding just two. Meanwhile, San Marino have conceded twenty-seven goals in their last five games while scoring none. San Marino have failed to score in their last seventeen away competitive matches, and I don't see that changing today. Andreas Isaksson, Sweden's first-choice goalkeeper will not play on Tuesday, but Johan Wiland shouldn't have too many problems should he get the nod ahead of Daniel Orlund. With the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Johan Elmander, and Marcus Berg in attack, Sweden should run out comfortable winners in this game. 1 Point - Sweden to keep a clean sheet @1.44. (William Hill) -

Re: Sweden vs. San Marino.
The odds of 1.44 are unbelievable as pointed out earlier in the thread' date=' they were a mistake by the bookies almost certainly and by this morning the odds for a Sweden clean sheet was 1.01 (from 1.44 12 hours earlier) and Sweden 'to win to nil' was 1.04 (also previously 1.44) I trust you placed this bet yesterday as these odds went some time ago! It is certainly the best bet of tomorrow if you were one of the lucky ones to get on at such a crazy price, I have a lot of money on it. My only fear is Hills settling at a reduced price and saying it was a mistake on their part, which they can do and something a few of us had with bet365 at the weekend.[/quote'] Yeah, thankfully, I managed to place the bet yesterday @1.44. I originally posted that yesterday in my log, but I thought I would put it here too. I agree though, the odds are amazing. Let's hope they pay out on them. :hope -

Re: Euro 2012 Qualifying > 7th September
To be fair, Portugal are normally very good defensively and rarely concede. I think Friday was a once-off, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.I think you are confusing something here. Norway beat Iceland away not France' date=' and to be honest Portugal is without C.Ronaldo and [b']they did concede 4 goals against Cyprus at home. -

Re: Euro 2012 Qualifying > 2nd-3rd September
Someone mentioned above that Ireland often draws away.I agree but all the draws in the last campaign were against strong teams Italy' date=' (World Champions by that time), Bulgaria with Berbatov in a decisive game where draw was very good for them and with the difficult team of Montenegro.Georgia was defeated away and I put Georgia same level as Armenia or may be a little better.[/quote'] Yes, I agree with you. Technically, Ireland beat France 1-0. He also mentioned the Italy game - Ireland did well to get a draw and really could of won it. I believe they were the first ever team to take points from Italy in Bari. I also want to point out the Montenegro game was a typical end-of-group game, with Ireland already guaranteed second and with Montenegro having nothing to play for. Saying that tough, I think it'll be a tight, tough game tomorrow, and Ireland will have to work hard to win. I really hope they win though! -
Armenia vs. Ireland. I think Ireland will have a very tough game against Armenia on Friday. Despite what people may think, Armenia are no push-overs, especially at home. Here are their four most recent home results: Armenia 2 - 1 Belgium. Armenia 1 - 2 Spain. Armenia 3 - 1 Uzbekistan. Armenia 1 - 3 Iran. As you can see, they do pretty well at home. I wouldn't read much into the games against Uzbekistan and Iran, as they were pointless friendlies. However, losing 2-1 against the best team in international football is a very respectable result. Also, beating Belgium is no mean feat, despite them being a shadow of what they used to be. I wouldn't recommend backing Armenia though, as I think that Ireland will edge this tie. Under 2.5 Goals could be worth a shot, or else Ireland to win by a single goal. I wouldn't be taking Ireland on any handicaps, as we all know Ireland aren't a side to destroy teams. Robbie Keane to score anytime @2.00 may also be a good bet. That's just my two cents, take whatever you want from it. I'll be avoiding this match, but good luck to all who aren't.

He was? Just so you know, he wasn't in the squad. David James, Rob Green, and Joe Hart were the three goalkeepers.Paul Robinson was woeful at the World Cup. -
Hello everyone! I have recently started to take an interest in betting; however, I am only fifteen. I decided to log my bets to see how I fare. Of course, I won't actually be betting with money - it's just for fun. I'm going to be betting on football as I'd like to think I know my stuff. I'll bet on any league or competition. I'll try and post my reasoning for each bet, but I'm going back to school (Junior Cert :zzz) on Tuesday so I may not always have the time. I'll start with a bank of 100 Points and I'll see where I can go from there. I'd appreciate any feedback on my bets, as I'm still young and new to gambling. I'll post up my first bet when I see something I fancy. See you around.

Re: Simply.Young's Football Log. I've decided to leave the Tottenham game alone, as I'm not too confident anymore. Spurs may have an eye on the Champions League midweek and both Jermaine Defore and Michael Dawson are injured. West Brom aren't too bad at home. Tottenham should win, and 2.15 is a good price, but I'm going to skip this one. Newcastle vs. Blackpool. Over 2.5 Goals @1.76. (Extrabet) This is another low-odds bet, but I believe this has a very good chance of coming in. Championship winners, Newcastle United, host newly promoted Blackpool at St. James Park this weekend. Both sides have made a decent start, with four points from their opening three fixtures. Both sides have recorded a surprise victory, with Blackpool beating Wigan 4-0 and Newcastle demolishing Aston Villa 6-0. Ian Hollaway is a man who I have a lot of time for - he is honest and tells it how it is. Despite not having the most technically gifted players, Blackpool try and get the ball down and play fluid attacking football. As much as I admire them for this, it often leaves them exposed at the back. Blackpool are a tough outfit to beat at home, and it will be their home form that can keep them up. However, Blackpool are not such an attractive prospect away from home. Newcastle are a good team, and should have more than enough to stay out of a relegation dog-fight. St. James Park is like a fortress for Newcastle, and with their passionate and loyal fans roaring them on, they rarely lose. Andy Carroll is on fire at the moment, with talk of him getting an England call-up, and I think he will torment the Blackpool defence with his strength and height. Both sides try and play attacking football, but Newcastle do it better. Blackpool will be exposed at the back, and I expect Newcastle, particularly Andy Carroll, to capitalise on this. All of Blackpool's matches have had at least four goals, with two of Newcastle's three games going over 2.5 goals. If this doesn't win, I'll be amazed... but stranger things have happened in football. 4 Points - Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.76. (Extrabet)
