Rother Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 At the time of writing, you can get 2/1 for England to Beat France a week on Monday (with paddypower.com) I think that is exceptional value. Even without a few regular players - the replacements are good up and coming England stars (To be honest, I think Lampard is past his sell-by date and I have never rated Barry as an England midfielder) I have put £50 on a straight England win and I fully expect my 50 quid back and another £100 as the bonus. Have some faith and grab the value, you don't often get 2/1 for England. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divvy Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Sounds reasonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rother Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 The thing is, if England win - you will not get 2/1 again in the tournament. At the moment everyone thinks they have no chance including the bookies. I would expect the odds to shorten as the first match gets nearer as plenty faithful fans will place their money on England So I imagine 2/1 will not last long.

jasram Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Well I have faith lol £50 @ 16-1 to win the whole thing Cheers Jase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rother Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 Ahh nuts - the intuition was right and the bookies had underestimated Englands chances but the bloody frogs scored a goal. For 10 minutes the loot was mine. Oh well, I will still keep my eyes skinned for the next value bet. Ireland are 12/1 to win tonight. You very rarely get 12/1 on one football match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogre Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Ireland are 12/1 to win tonight. You very rarely get 12/1 on one football match Looks like the bookies knew something we didn't - Ireland were abysmal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rother Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 Well, England are 5/4 to win against the Swedes tonight - so the bookies still think England won't win (otherwise they would be 1/2 against.) But 5/4 is not worth risking decent money even though I think they will win 2 - 0 By the odds they are giving - they think it will be a draw. You can get 12/1 Gerrrad to score first - which by the way he played the first match are good odds or 4/1 for him to score anytime in the match. I think I shall have a little punt on him to score first and a smaller punt for him to score anytime - to cover my bets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
