Watching the CL final and some of the quality of play is absolutely awful. Some of the passing from some of these so called stars has been horrendous and stuff I’d be disappointed with at our level!!
 
I had no interest in this and had no idea who was in the final until this evening but I'm glad Bayern won. Proper football club and PSG are just City on steroids.

I wasn't arsed until Ladbrokes gave a £1 free bet. The only value was 0-0 which was 22/1 (decent for a final). Fuming when there was a goal!
 
Unlucky mate it was a good call.

To be fair I'm just too tight to add actual money to a free bet. I've started matched betting so got a lot of accounts, but wasn't worth laying a £1 bet! All the other match odds were like 5/1 so not worth it. I thought there'd be plenty goals, but finals are often underwhelming so for that price it was worth it. Annoying thing is they give you a **** cash out offer if it's a free bet. Looked a few minutes before the goal and they offered £2.30 so I had to let it run!

I'm not too convinced mind, think I got into it too late! I'm £170 in profit but I've used most of the new account offers (apart from bet365 which is a big one, just waiting until there's more matches for better odds). Now I'm looking at the existing customer offers, I'm on Oddsmonkey and loads are like potential profit of £2, its a lot of work for not much. I'm going to stick with it , and a couple of the bet clubs seem okay, but I was hoping to get about £300 a month and that seems way optimistic unless you have a large bank and get very lucky on 2ups! Not that I'm arsed, just wanting to make a bit extra for my lass because her hours have been slashed, just don't think it's as profitable as I'd hoped, not without taking risks and going casinos and the likes. Still, I'll give it a go and see how it goes when next season starts.

Marcus mate I'm not one to care about spelling but you do know the word for exists don't you.

Where did you go on holiday? We've booked in for a family holiday to Halkidiki this time next year I hope it goes ahead.

I had £20 on under 1.5 goals at 6/1. Tbh I expected a tighter game, they could have been 5 or 6 goals in that if it wasn’t for the woodwork and terrible finishing.

Glad you won mate! Just been reading about the boxing and the ****ers not wanting to pay out because they said it was a TKO and not a KO. Absolute arseholes. Love seeing bookies lose

Same here, mate. I always smile when I see somebody take them for a few quid. Dirty scumbags the lot of them.

Neymar blew his chance again, ronaldo and Messi have done it time and time again, but when will he do it ? i had bets of 2-1, 3-0, 3-1, 4-1 and 5-0 to Bayern and winning both halves ! i cannot win.
