I shall go with England at 11/1.

Not because I particularly want them to win but if, God forbid, they do then at least all the jingoistic, flags on cars crap will be slightly more tolerable.

If they lose, £20 is worth it for the close up shots of little kids and grown men in the crowd crying at the end of the game !

:D

There's some great gambling-related clips on YouTube. Check out this one about a guy who won $40 million in casinos, then lost it all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stfBT_eyDPo&feature=player_embedded

An interesting market here, Rooney is the favourite to be top England scorer despite missing two of the group games. With no Bent in the squad (thanks again Roy), and the other three strikers being shite; I think I'll have a cheeky little bet on Walcott at 12/1.

At those prices Young would be my pick but until the friendlies there are too many unknowns. Though his squad suggests he'll play one up front with Young and Walcott joining in from wide.

That's my thinking too Badge. I'll hold fire until Roy names his team for the France game; if he lines-up as expected I'll get involved.

Right, my bet's on: The Ox to be England's top scorer at 25/1.

19.52 Sittingbourne - Battling Jack (Trap 2)

Some geezer who tips greyhounds has had 5 winner out of 5 in the last couple of weeks

This is his tip for today

His run of winners must come to an end

But I thought I'd stick it here if anyone likes a dabble on the doggies

Not much of a betting man so I've just risked a few grand

Started as 1/1 favourite - and didn't even place. Your friend should be shot.

You never see a bookie on a bike.

I'd rather shoot the dog!

Well I did say he was due a loser :(

Just found I've got a free £5 bet on my Coral account that expires in a few hours.
It has to be on the Greyhounds though.
I shall peruse the Romford Card & keep you all posted.
All together now "Can't wait!"

There's one running at 7.40
Called
Bill is Renegade
:O
I wondered why they were always in the same hats

Bought £8 worth of scratchcards in the last two days and am £6 down. Gambling doesn't pay.

Of course Billis Renegade won.
And I didn't bet my fiver on it.

Took Bradford City to win last night at 10/1.

I noticed after 10 minutes play it was 16/1 but I was on at 10/1.

Makes me wish I had, had more than 'an interest' bet of £2.

My dog got bashed into by another before the first bend.

Bang goes my virtual fiver.
