Little bit light upfront now with Eduardo De Silva gone. Still should get through the group alright but would be a bit worried about the later stages.
What do yis think?
I like croatia @ 15.5 on betfair. Should qualify from the group, even if they arent playing too great.. they then avoid germany (favs) in the quarters, at which point it may be time to lay them off..
Should be some great match betting during the competition.. I did loose plenty on the last world cup though![]()

I backed Poland @ 50/1 just before they qualified. The draw wasn't too bad for them.
I wouldn't have Germany as favs and as Greece showed anything can happen. In one off matches there isn't a whole lot between any of the European teams though.
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"
Think I'll put money on Germany to score 4 or more goals against Poland @ 11-2. I fancy the Germans to hammer them tbh, just hope they don't sit back if they go ahead by a couple.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Austria @ circa 6/1 to score no goals in the comeptition.
Backed russia at 27 with betfair. I certainly think they'll get out of that group.
Back Sneijder for top scorer at 100 and Van Nistelrooy at 22
Big bet today is 0-2 to be score in todays games (total) at 5.3

had the two winners today and tomorrows likelies.. germany + croatia in a modestly paying acc. cant remember exact odds. 3 are odds on with the czechs at a tasty 2.72.
apparently a bit of money for russia lately..? my mate has been following them and reckons they have come in a fair bit in the last week.
looked fairly blunt up front allright. Credit to the Austrians though they worked fairly hard. Croats now 17-1 on betfair. they'll come back - better to start slow
Was nice to see all the grumpy Poles walking round town after the game!!
Germany![]()
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
gone for an Italy - France double today , I think the French will bounce back and they usually raise their game when it matters .€10 returns €48
Roll on Group B and the Polish working a miracle to qualify, unfortunately the Germans can't win the group
If Group C stays as it is then i'll make a good few bobs.
My only hope in Group D is Spain winning the group.

LESS OF THE BULL NOW!
Lumped on a double for Croatia - Austria both winning. 33/1, decent odds. Don't let me down lads. Hopefully that'll make up for predicting Villa for top scorer but then being too lazy to drop by a bookies and placing a bet...
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
Today is a hard one to call but im going for a Holland&Italy double with a fiver on Romania to cover it. Cant see France getting anything no matter how bad the Italians are playing.
I think double chance with Greece/draw at evens is a good bet tomorrow, surely they'll have some pride in themselves to conjure up at least a draw.

still goin for croatia for the outright win. Not been gamblin 2 much on individual games to be honest. Would have picked sweeden this evening too... shows what i know.
germany to win on penalties v portugal - 10-1 bf. seems too blatant for words, but makes sense to me
