Weekend Betting (merged)

[MacBean]

Well its finally here! The football league returns as well as the Charity Shield and friendlies.

I think im going to do all Draws in the Championship (ten games tomorrow, one tonight, one sunday)

If i was to do these 12 games as draws but bet 4fold, 5fold and 6fold how many bets would i be placing? I cant work it out! I'll also be sticking on a coupon but will look at that later on in the day.

What's your guys bets?

Some nice play from Watford..

[Houchy]

I've gone for a wee gentle/hopefull treble today of:

Middlesborough to beat Ipswich (we'll see how the old firm select get on down there)
Reading to beat Scunny (bad start to last season for Reading but great finish)
Burnley to beat Forrest (Burnley obviously relegated last year but had a decent home record, against a team I thought punched above their weight a bit last year)

5/1 (actually 259/50:rolleyes::greengrin)

[sammy7]

the season is back - time to start winning, or more likely, losing money :agree:

fantastic spot buddy. Although my other bets were gash, I took a Brechin/Ross county double to more than cover my losses.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Hulse 7/1 thanks very much!

Aye OK, you're milking it now:greengrin

[matty_f]

Had a shocker today!

Preston, Reading and Bristol City on a treble. Think they all lost. Thought I'd stick a small bit on Leeds...
:grr:

Good job I never spend any serious money on this lark, I'm murder at it.

[Hamish]

Livingston let me down for a fair few quid.

Easy easy money.

ill put another £25 on Blackpool to beat Hibs at 10/11 ..Another ridiculous price..Dont know what the bookies are thinking about with those odds, Still all the more ££££ for me.

[Pete]

I find it's pointless betting until a few weeks into the season as nobody knows who will be strong. The bookies hardly got any of the odds right at the weekend.

You're as well shutting your eyes and pinning the tail on the donkey.

Please tell me you changed your mind. I'm no a betting man as I've probably said before but if I was I just couldnae bet against Hibs.

[Speedy]

This week's (reasonably priced) banker. Hibs and Motherwell both to score. Evens at Hills.
