Slightly OT - If you wanna win cash, bet in play.

    Seriously, if you've got a good footballing brain, try betting in play on skybet.

    I've placed 5 in play bets, and won 3 of them, and got myself around 60 quid in winnings.

    I placed 2 quid on Dempsey to be the next goal scorer in their match vs Chelsea. It was ****ing 10/1 for him to score for some reason, intelligent people can take advantage of stuff like that. I won 20 quid. (22 returns)

    During the Liverpool vs Everton derby in the FA cup - Suarez was something like 6/1 for next goal scorer, I bet 3 quid and he scored and I won 18 quid. (20 returns)

    Then during the Barca vs Chelsea tie. Chelsea were, i think, 7/2 or something like that to qualify after Ramires scored the stoppage time first half goal. I stuck 4 quid on that because I personally believed that was a good chance Chelsea would be able to hold off Barca, and I took note of all the chances Barca were missing, and predicted that Barca would batter Chelsea but miss vital chances, and they did, and I won 18 quid.

    I know it may not win you mega bucks quickly, unless you're mad and bet a load, but it really does pile up if you bet sensibly.

    I've lost some cash on it, but I've made around 50 quid profit over the last few weeks.

    Skybet make a lot of cash from ******s making stupid bets on those stupid "odds raised" things, when Skybet decide to make odds higher on certain things that some poeple think are very likely to happen, but never really do.

    If you're smart, and actually study games when watching them, and you consider the likeliness of things happening, then you can make some seriously money if you have the patience to do so.

    I know a lot of you like to do those accumulators where you bet next to nowt, but could win a load of cash, but lets face it, those things very very rarely win you the cash. Betting in play, with a little bit of patience and intelligence can pay off big time.

    Just saying :)

    ****ing greedy fat bastard.

    Haha. If I see you at Everton then maybe. I saw Nufctomw yesterday, but we didn't talk for some reason. He looked scared of me for some reason, which is strange because we've talked on numerous occasions at home games and he was fine.

    Anyways, if you know what I look like, just look out for me if you want rofl

    Meh.

    No idea. My dad has been talking to these blokes on twitter about this "party bus" or something. You can drink on the bus and stuff and it's apparently good atmosphere. We're considering it.

    But we normally just drive down in the car, so if we can't get anything sorted, we'll most likely just drive down in the car.

    If you want to recognise me, i'll be in my sammy shirt which I wear above my coat.

    Get stopped by the police with drinks on the coach and the drink will be confiscated and the coach turned around.

    If you have opinions about my level of knowledge of the subject, please express them. I'm all open for constructive criticism, I just don't appreciate sarcasm. Not that I'm angry, but I consider that comment you just made cowardly and/or stupid.

    As Pat Benatar says, hit me with your best shot <ok>

    Howay Tash it was a joke man. I'm not on here nearly enough to know whether or not you are a good judge but I would be wary of proclaiming yourself as one after landing 3 out of 5 bets. That said I have seen the occasional very dodgy player rating from you over the past few months....

    The thing is mate, we all have different systems in our heads about rating players. A 6/10 for me might be a 5/10 for you. It doesn't necessarily mean I think he played better than you thought he did.

    Besides, you can't really compare match day player ratings to betting sensibly in play.
