Bit worried about the Spain manager situ...which happened after the bet.

£1 on 20 fold.

France to beat Australia
Argentina to beat Iceland
Denmark to beat Peru
Germany to beat Mexico
Brazil to beat Switzerland
Belgium to beat Panama
Poland to beat Senegal (bit worried)
Portugal to bear Morocco (wee bit worried)
Spain to beat Iran
France to beat Peru
Belgium to beat Tunisia (tad squeaky)
Germany to beat Sweden
Mexico to beat South Korea
Spain to beat Morocco (mmm)
Portugal to beat Iran
France to beat Denmark
Argentina to beat Nigeria
Germany to beat South Korea
Brazil to beat Serbia (eee)
Poland to beat Japan (titchy)

I will win £3500?

Them’s the odds whadya think TJ?


They all look fine on paper Dis but I confess I don't know much about most of them. Tunisia are supposed to be the best African team and Iceland shut up shop well. All I'd say is I think you'll be very lucky if there isn't a draw amongst that lot.


You’re right about the draws TJ. I might stick £1 on another one and put some draws in.

Good luck with the 20 runner acca!

I never bet in multiples on footie bets these days, just one team on the nose. I used to put the occasional double or treble on, but wouldn't dream of going for 20!

Cheers.

I rarely bet but I won money no long ago on an accumulator so I thought I’d have a wee punt on the World Cup. It’s a nightmare when it’s down to last few games, last time I cashed out just in time.

I’m going for a group finish acca I think.
Australia, South Korea, Panama, and japan to finish bottom.
Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina to finish top.
Was debating shoving Portugal at the top of B but I ain’t sure.

Spain and Portugal is a dodgy one, do two and put both at the top. :laughing:

My husband’s got one of them on too, same teams as you I think. I was annoyed at him putting Australia at the bottom. They’re my team after Scotland and Italy.

I was going to put money on Australia getting to the quarter finals but he said no.

Poor aussies.
Since England are the only UK team in it, I haven’t got any other horses in the race.

I’m well looking forward to the first match on Monday though.
