Evens not a bad bet, i still think it's 50/50, either a european or South American team win it, but when was the last time a South American team won the World Cup in Europe?? I cant remember, have they ever?Quote:

No mate your not, if there the prices your losing out, if you put £20.00 each on Atgentina and Brazil the worst you will win is £90.00, evs obviously £80.00, now if the bookies think any of the other South American's have a chance they must be having a laugh!!Quote:

Some guy from Scotland had £40,000 on England to beat Sweden last night... I would have given anything to see the look on his face when Larsson scored the last minute equaliser. ;D
He was probably on the phone to his wife at the time from the pub:
Man:
"Ha! And to think, you told me not to put the bet on! But I knew better! I went and put it on anyway, behind your back! Well now who is laughing!? You're not seeing ANY of this cash! I'm sick of you!"
*TV in the background*
Larsson has equalised in the last minute for Sweden!
Man:
"Um... Honey, I love you..."
Other end of the phone:
*The BT customer you are calling can no longer be reached at this time...*
;D

Secondly why would you pick this game?? The win wasnt that important?? This guy must have more money than sense or if he hasnt he is probably trying to find his next meal as we speak.
You can be sure of that. ;)Quote:
