    Yes, Best and Rush are brilliant examples PMK. You can't always look at national or club records alone. In contradistinction, Peter Crouch has an international scoring-to-appearance ratio second to (almost) none! ;)

    Yes and yet no one's trying to flog him to Barca or Real. It seems that way round is much sillier, for some reason. You can't make it up. :)

    Dont know what price it was but if chris had threw a fiver on it he'd have probably got a good drink out of it.

    Footy odds aren't brilliant in single bets so your tempted to do score/goalscorer or haltime/fulltime/first goalscorer to bump your winnings up.

    And thus harder for you to win so the bookie wins saying that they always win in the end

    That's why they are in the business. If you bet ODDS AGAINST you are always going to lose over the long term. Trouble is many of us also lose in the short term too!

    It's only ever when you can't be arsed to put the money on it that your 'bet' comes off. I can't remember what game it was, probably an early round cup game, but one time I just had a feeling it was going to be a 5-1 away win, but felt it was too far-fetched and left it. Then it bloody happened! Think it was like 30/1 or something.

    I often get the feeling we're going to lose when we're favourites, but never put money on it. Imagine how much I could've made if I had a tenner on the opposition to win or draw at our place.

    i want a real barca final.... I want mourinho exposed as the filthy cheat he is... i really want the myth to be exploded and to see ronaldo despite all his talents found wanting yet again as a man and a team mate.
