cosmicway Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Ukraine v. Turkey locked and then (according to some) unlocked again. What's the score ? Are they suspecting a giveaway ? Kazakhstan 15 to 1 - if they know any football they should win - Greece is delapidated *** reliable bookie says now it was locked last night and opened again today and he thinks Turkey will win *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAC Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Re: UKRAINE v. TURKEY strange betting moves 23/10 On Ukraine looks like good value to me, regardless of what shannigans may or may not be going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmicway Posted September 7, 2005 Author Share Posted September 7, 2005 Re: UKRAINE v. TURKEY strange betting moves It appears OPAP were offering too high a price (2.80) on Turkey so they locked it and opened it again at 2.35 for the away win. There are however some scenarions involving the three second place contenders (Denmark - Greece - Turkey). Are Ukraine home and dry however ? Are they playing in Germany - I saw a strange remark somewhere ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fgee Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Re: UKRAINE v. TURKEY strange betting moves i jumped on turkey a few days ago, but i wouldn't read too much into what people have said the odds on most sites are exactly the same for turkey as they were yesterday so i can't se any match rigging myself, but if Ukraine want to let Turkey win i'd be more than glad ;) i expect them to win but you can never tell and bookies dont tell people who's going to win, unless they're in it to give false tips and make themselves some money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fgee Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Re: UKRAINE v. TURKEY strange betting moves yes Ukraine are the first team to qualify from the European groups they are home and dry, guaranteed to finish top of the group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluelessG Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Re: UKRAINE v. TURKEY strange betting moves DAC, if you can read Cyrillic letters and know a bit of Russian, here's the website of the Olympic Stadium in Kiev: http://www.nsc-olympic.com/ It is officially known as NSC "Olympic" (NSC = National Sports Complex). It was called Olympic in 1996, because it was one of the venues of the 1980 Olympic games hosted by USSR (Moscow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where the hell did you find, even on that website, anything about Germany? What they write is just Olympic Stadium. and sure it's Ukrainians' home game, chance to earn some money etc. and footy is also extremely popular over there. It would be like a Chelsea's CL home match played somewhere in Belgium maybe... And don't wanna sound rude, but looking for info about football at US sports website is like looking for in-depth analysis of baseball @ any European site...

WorkingForTheEnemy Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Re: UKRAINE v.
