IT’S the start of the Scottish football season on Friday – and the good news is Celtic aren’t playing.
I’m still reeling from their defeat to Lincoln Red Imps but have decided to start a new £20 to £250 challenge on Friday with Dundee United at Arbroath in the new-look Betfred League Cup.
The game is live in BT Sport 1 and United under new boss Ray McKinnon, who did well at Raith last season, will be out to impress against the League Two side.
Plenty of you are still doing challenges – including harrybaines – and smashing it and this is the place to put them.
Bet No.1
Dundee Utd (7.45, Fri)

On it! Do you always do doubles mate?
No @theboss If I fancy a game with odds of 3/10 or better I will do a single
Bet 1
Ceres FC v Green Archers Utd game neither race to 9 corners @2.25
Very risky basically this will be 95% luck, but i do like a risky bet 1. I don’t have a clue how many each get per game. Ceres currently on 5 in the 50th min.
£50 stake
2/1 now lmao
Lost, didn’t expect it to fly in. 95% luck as i said
Alt bet 1 – They just got another 2 corners one after another so not looking great
I deffo feel there will be a late late goal in this one
Ceres FC v Green Archers Utd
Green archers to score next in the 75th min will be a great price something like 10/1 as they are the under dog but they do like late goals. Over 3.5 goals will be the safer shout if it stay’s 3-0
In the 75th min im doing another £50 on over what ever score it is so if 4-0 over 4.5 etc. Might even wait till the 80th for better odd’s
Lol what did i say, bang on the 75th min
Removed corner markets! Haha so many corners
I know haha, knew it was risky asf though. Wouldn’t of put anymore on it
3 goals in 5 mins in that game, hope some of you got on
4 goals in 6 mins lmao scenes
3-0 when I checked now 6-0!! 😱
Green archers just scored in the last few mins of the game and they were 21/1 to score the last goal/next goal. I did mention that team was the under dog but it could happen as they like late goals
I know i mentioned it for after 75th & they weren’t the next team to score as the home side got 4 more but they still scored last/next and at them odd’s it was a good tip
So what were your bets in the end harry?
Over 5.5 as i missed the first two, got on at 2.10. Catch you after going gym, be back 3/4ish

Bet 2
£157.14 under 3.5 match goals Shirak v Spartak trvna @ 2/5
Returns £220.00
Just done home United game under 0.5 first half goal for 2.25 with 50 stake.
Risky as but away team score least goals 30th min to 45th. Some value here.
Watch it be 2-0 at halftime -_-
you were 100% right 32 mins
I know lmao, that is when they score the least but doesn’t mean they can’t score 😃
Just done over 3.5 corners first half in that game as that was what I was originally gonna do 😎 if this dont land I dunno 😪
Hahahahahaha I needed a corner and the other game gets one in the 44th. Told you it is complete opposite everything or something very similar 🤗🤗🤗
Can’t even be arsed anymore, everytime I do something complete opposite happens… actually a joke my luck right now
Not gonna post on here for a good few days & I’m gonna do my own personal challenge & see if I can do it. Feel like it’s this forum right now, i feel jixed & it seems all to similar in the bets I am doing. If I think about it, if happens and when I do it don’t. Obviously isn’t the forum but it feels like it right now… 3/3 down on the last bet in a row to finish my challenge as well. What are the chances 😂🔫
Harry Baines, there’s no such thing as a jinx. You place your bet and you can’t do anything to change the result.
It’s irrelevant that you post them on here your still betting on then just posting them here same outcome posted or not.
I know Mr f it just feels like it right now & Kelly i never said the forum makes a difference in the outcome of my bets, It feels like it. I am putting it to the test though to see if I can get my form back. Good luck
Harry Baines, it’s about picking the right bets – not where you comment about them.
Luck is a part of betting but once you place a bet all you can do is watch and pray.
Hopefully tonight is kind with all of them games on
good luck tonight

Bet 2
£157.14 under 3.5 match goals Shirak v Spartak trvna @ 2/5
Returns £220.00
Looks in at halftime tbh
bet will be voided as it kicked of earlier than bet365 had it, just waiting on them to void it, so get onto them if you were on it.
€54 arsenal de sarandi game o4.5 mgs returns €118.80
Didn’t think they would void because it kicked off a little earlier than expected? not like it changes the game at all, sound’s daft
It was stated as 12 mins gone when really it was half time so less chance of the goals coming in they said they would void as they wrongly timed the game and was at an unfair disadvantage to me
Oh i see, i thought you meant the game kicking off had a delay.
I had this problem with william hill. put £500 on under 2.5 goals a while back and it said it was in the 80th min and the odds were evens and i thought i won but it was only actually the 60th min and i got no refund. They just said something like we try and make sure are games are as accurate as possible but we can’t guarantee they are right etc. Was well pissed
If it was that way with this bet I would have no chance of a void. There usually OK if you fight with them and threaten to leave
BET 3.

Good luck!
Suspended due to rain atm!
Thanks, i’ll need it. Seem’s like it might be abandoned till another day? William hill have just taken it off completely
I want the stream to work on 365 to see how bad it is haha
Is this tennis game gonna be played or should i ask for them to void?
Harry, there is 32 Europa lge qual and 20 odd euro friendlies coming up this eve , surely you can get a run going?
I’ll give it ago mate. I have my money in this tennis game right now what is still delayed
Bring it back to just goals what you used to win on, waiting till half time then over 0.5 etc. You prob lost your patience,started chasing and now you can’t think straight. It happens.
last bet still not settled but carrying on.

Alt bet 1
Dortmund game over 8 first asian half corners @1.90
Wanted to do over 5/6/7 but corners just kept flying in, told you my luck is unreal right now
Corners dying down, typical
Stick with goals mate that’s where your good at
I think i’ll have too, don’t know what is happening right now to be honest
5 corners in under 15 mins and when im on not one in 15. My life feels like a hoax, im gonna do something you wouldn’t even think would land and watch it come in
€226.80 Stade Nyonnais game o1.5 fhg returns €391.74
Fine go on without me @kelly-d
Still waiting for another goal!! It won’t come I don’t think
I want your luck, tip over 1.5 in dortmund game and goal straight away. You do this and pen straight away + goal
had a bad week and challenge can lose at any bet
I guess and second pen in that game ahahha unreal, my next bet has to be a winner
Get in that tennis bet i did opposite to the one who posted it is 3-1 up and winning 1-0 on sets. Reach 7 and that’s a win. Age/quality over a young one.
Hope i ain’t put bad luck on myself
When you curse yourself….
There goes my over 2.5fhg 😠
Luck isn’t shining on us Harry lol
Kelly will have glasses on 😉
Well done @kelly! I never get on in time or bottle it.
Hope you make it to you goal!
Looks like it’s me v you kelly!
Tennis bet about to land!

£374 on Abredeen @ 4/11
Pays £510
The 3rd set has only just started mate? You are gonna use funds on Aberdeen that aren’t in yet pal?
It has just started and there is now a break to 2 games. Looks OK to me!
I will be using that money to lump on Aberdeen!
You have this, women im on has past it. She’s like 40 playing a teen, no chance
It is more annoying when i got her at 1.70 and she is like 4.00 inplay. I have the under dog to win at crap odds
That old she is having work done on her leg while she lie’s down. Lump on the other women???? lol
That teen has a right strop on her hahahah when she looses she starts crying and hits balls away loooool
Just about to do dortmund game over 3.5 and goal just as placing, if i don’t have a curse the word shouldn’t exist. I couldn’t go to the shop and buy a drink right now without something happening
Damn i clicked it and a goal was already registered so it put it down as over 4.5 for me and i didn’t even realize i just exited from the webpage out of rage!!! Get in, that bit of luck could be a sign. £131 for bet 1 or bet 2. Im sure people will have something to say if i call it bet 2 as i didn’t post. Looks like be 1 will be a bigger stake
Doesn’t look like my tennis bet will finish in time before abredeen kick off
Will post as soon as it does my next bet.
Chin up Harry 😉
Im all good now 😉 good luck on that tennis bet
Want to try over 2.5 goals in the SonderjyskE match. Odds are about 2.10 right now…
Harry, cast that LUCKY spell upon me sir
I have only just got it back haha, had like 6 losses in a row and must of had about 5 bets i thought about then landed just today, i just hope i do this challenge before another loss
I do like it a lot though mate just with my luck right now placing £105 in the last 10 mins is a bad idea
Lol…it just came in. Thanks Harry

One more bet at 1.90 + i have done myself a challenge. If it goes down on that last hurdle again that will be 4/4 that it has gone down on the last bet. 4th time lucky? 😉
Was having a good look at that game myself and debating an inplay bet but I thought it was gonna be one of those games where the ball just wouldnt go in. One way traffic all the way and Volvodina should have won by a cricket score!
One down @mattr hopefully the harder of the 2 done.
All good 👍

A long way to go but I hate red cards. Not confident now.
Red card means more goals! Hopefully from the home side anyway
Not in my experience 😢
Cashout for £10??
Never cash out on the challenge 😉
Oh no. I cashed out for full return second third goal went in and it was chalked off. Let’s hope we get another one anyway or I won’t be having that money 😂
I cashed out at 1-0 stuck it on Dundee to win 😂😂
Why? 😢 Don’t cash out the challenge. I know I wasn’t confident after red card but goals can always come, home or away. My advice is forget the win lose draw markets if you want consistent profit.
Last bet to do the challenge will be coming from 3 that’s when I’ll be back. Not doing another bet from mobile again lmao.
If this crashes that will be 4/4 on the last bet. Looks like the odds are going for me in this one, surely not 4 times in a row.
well everything comes in three’s harry.
It just happened & i missed it

Gonna stick my £43 on over 3.5 goals at 3.40. Not as confident hence why all the stake ain’t going on.
Wow, just stuck it on at 3.40 and it went straight up to 4.50 right after. Fairly annoying if it land’s what a jump in odd’s
Well there’s the loss i needed
Errrbody waiting for the o0.5 market in Amstetten
Let’s go Harry!
Your kindness in helping others to win is such a selfless act you deserve every recognition,I hope your challenge wins as you miss out cause you put it on here first before placing rather than the other way round which would mean u would have smashed it several times,I applaud you for your loyalty to your many followers,wishing you the best

And the 3rd goal goes in the other game 😂😂😂 can’t make this crap up seriously!!
@mr-fixit how old is that keeper that plays for the team playing Dundee? He looks about 17
Harry Baines, keeper will be pleased hear that. He’s the very experienced Cammy Bell who must be about 30.
Also it’s Dundee United – Dundee play tomorrow.
have you ever seen defending as bad for the Arbroath goal? Like watching park football.
I meant the team playing Dundee united
I just looked it up just then and he is actually just 17. What a guess. Robbie Mutch is the name.
Yeah he is 17 and on loan from Aberdeen.
