    Yeah, just a click of a button.

    Should go in your account pretty soon after the result comes in.
    Footy odds are generally poor though. First scorer or scorecasts are quite fun I suppose.
    My mate bets on Barnsley to lose. His theory is that he's happy if we win and it's some consolation if we lose. I think it's a disgrace :)

    Nah, I'd never bet against the reds!

    My mate bet against his beloved Rangers to lose 3-0 to Celtic the other week...boy was he stunned when the final results came in :pff

    I'#ll put a tenner on the reds to beat Bradford, then use my free bet for a wayward shock like East Riding Dinnerladies to beat Colchester.

    Bet of luck anyway pal.
    Trouble is I started on footy bets and now bet on anything that's on the telly....makes live matches more exciting.
    Coupons are worth doing at weekends cos you can put a small stake on (eg. a quid) and there's always the chance of getting a big win.

    Yeah, I remember doing the pools with my mum many years ago! For a pound, and we won £40 one week...dead chuffed I was!

    I've put a tenner on the reds to win...I might put my free tenner on Wigan to beat Newcastle tonight...not bad return at £28. That's £28 more than I'd have started with, seeing as it's my free bet.

    I doubt I'll bet on anything but football, I'm not really "up" on any other sports if I'm honest.

    Now I don't know who to put my free bet on...

    Sunderland to beat Spurs or Falkirk to beat Rangers this weekend are coming back at some profit!

    Unlikely that Sunderland will win though, and although I hate to say it...Rangers will probably beat Falkirk.

    Any suggestions/hints/tips? And if you win me some money I'll errr...buy you a pint!

    All about form.
    Have a look at teams with good home/away records. Then look at what looks the best value.
    Maybe do a double or a treble to increase potential winnings.
    I'd avoid beting on cup matches if I were you. Notoriously unpredictable. e.g. Donny vs Villa!

    Take my advice with a pinch of salt though. :)

    Nah, not gunna put anything on Sunderland...the odds speak for themselves!

    Wigan to beat Newcastle is a pretty decent return...but that's 90 minutes only, so if Wigan win in extra time I get nowt.

    I could always save my free bet for Barnsley vs. Tranmere next Tuesday.

    Was at Stadium of Light on Monday, their conference and banqueting lot are great. Chances of them winning however are about as likely as getting glassed on a night out in Newcastle - oh, wait... they did?
