I STILL can't believe it – Kazakhstan 3, Scotland 0. It surely has to be the other way round.
It's been branded Scotland's worst performance of all time and it's difficult to argue and Alex McLeish will do well to survive in the wake of the humiliation.
Well done to the one or two who backed against Scotland before kick-off and the dozens who did so after the match.
I maintain it was a huge shock and the Kazakhs are a poor team and we'll get an idea of their quality when Belgium and Russia visit.
Financially the defeat wasn't a disaster as I lost 1.5pts on the Super Single but saw the stake on my moneyback sixfold returned with my other five teams winning as the favourites all did the business.
Well done to all the winners – and there were plenty if you left Scotland out – and a special mention for Sean McCready who had two out of three correct on his Holland preview including a 4-0 correct score at 7-1.
There are another seven Euro qualifiers on Friday and hopefully no shocks. Below are the latest odds from Bet365.
[euros_odds]
I've posted an England v Czech Republic preview and I expect Gareth Southgate's men to start with three points.
Other games include Bulgaria v Montenegro, Portugal v Ukraine, Moldova v France and Andorra v Iceland so plenty of short prices in there.
In the Scotland, Partick Thistle entertain Inverness in a game that affects both ends of the Scottish Championship and it could be a scoring draw. Not much else to look at although there are a handful of Dutch lower-league encounters.
As usual my time is limited on a Friday but I've picked out a moneyback fivefold with the biggest price Turkey at Albania at just over evens. The four should land so it might come down to the Turks who face a side beaten 4-0 at home to Scotland in the Nations League.
*2pts Moneyback Fivefold
- Turkey
- England
- France
- Iceland
- Portugal

Ronnie O Sullivan to win and Warrington to win
It came in but Warrington
Let’s not go there
And Ronnie talk about boot laces stuff
A wins a win eh lol
Don’t want to go into the Scotland game as football fans you know how many truly brilliant players you have produced
Quite surprised by the general over reaction to the Scotland result. Many a neutral predicted Kazakhstan to get something out of the game which is why the Scots drifted out to odds against prior to kickoff.
Euro 2020 Qualifiers
England vs Czech Republic
England Over 2.5 FH Corners
England Over 5.5 TCorners
4/5 – *Medium Stake*
BOL with your bets!
Look at their results history – 3 wins in 40 games.
One win in the Nations League – at home to Andorra.
I didn’t see anyone tipping Kazakhstan to win before the game never mind “many neutrals”.
I’m well aware of the results history over the years including recent ones in the Nations. As far as I’m concerned though, they are better than Latvia + Andorra and about on a par with the likes of Georgia, I know they lost both games to them. The Kazaks do have glimpses of quality in there side and a couple of goals they scored yesterday was decent. Regarding how well backed the Kazaks were, I backed them DC at 1.91, in space of 24 hrs they dropped as short as 1.66 which is over a 25% drop. They won’t have been well backed in Scotland just like not many English will back the Czechs tonight. With some bets on the Scots, I think it was a case of betting with the heart though I understand you had reasoning for backing them on the handicaps. As I’ve said before, a difference of opinion on matches is always good.
I’ve dug it out of spam. At the end of the day your tip was correct and we need differences of opinion.
My view is Scotland handed them 3 cheap goals and made them look good.
If the Kazakhs take something off Russia on Sunday then you’re on to something.
The price drop was probably due to Tierney injury which was a blow with Robertson already out.
I have to admit I had some concerns when I saw the line-up and I’m in the camp that says McLeish has to go.
Strachan shouldn’t have been asked unless we were getting a better manager and that’s not the case.
I see he’s favourite to get his old job back. Don’t think Clarke would take it – he likes the day-to-day involvement of club football.
Hi Kyle
Yeh noticed you had done double chance
Well done pal
Thanks
In-play with Lanus 1-0 on 60mins:
Huracan to score @ 11/4
Enough chances but red card killed it.
Morning lads
Wexford Youths v Bray Wanderers
Over 3.5 goals at 6/5
Over 4.5 goals at 11/4
Over 5.5 goals at 11/2
I like the chances of this game seeing goals,wexford have conceded 3,6,3,4,4in their last four games averaging 4 per game against,tonight they face a team that will be pushing for promotion and given the last meeting finished 3-2 to Bray wanderers only a few weeks ago and although it was a cup game it gives us a clue as to how this game might pan out.Goals for me.
Best of luck

Come in now please Mr Clarke what’s odds to be the next Scotland boss now I wonder. We live in hope.
I was out all day yesterday watching the football — came home late last night to find my penalty trixie landed. 145/1 WINNER.

Incredible stuff cocker ??
Lommel v OH Leuven BTTS & Overs 6/5
Sterling ATGS, > 4 Team Corners, > 1 TGS 11/4 – quarter stake
Belgium for my main effort. Like these games as you have plenty of recent H2Hs and a recent game to go on. Ok it is a relegation league game – but same last season saw BTTS & Overs as was the 2-3 played at the end of Jan – so 6/5 looks ok value wise to me. Smaller stake on Sterling, a few corners and a couple of goals. GL all today.
Will also have a quarter stake

Not bull at all Sasa, I was spot on with my selection, I appreciate a lot on here will disagree with me for obvious reasons. I’m well aware of past results, stats + there world rankingetc. but there is more to betting than just basing on these alone. You need to simmer down.
Did quite a lengthy post in response to Mr F, will no doubt jumped straight into spam. Anyway, I won’t post no more about it.
Repost from January 29th.

From a welsh point of view,
Alun wyn Jones player of the tournament 66/1 looks massive for a guy who I’ve never seen have a bad game.
I’m also on Justin Tipuric at 33/1 .
I also back Tipuric each game for man of the match,and he’s rarely far away.
Josh Adams top try scorer 40/1 also worth a punt.
Alun wyn Jones wins player of the tournament ✅,
Josh Adams also brings top tryscorer for ew backers.
Hope a few followed.
GOLF UPDATE
We had a place winner for the first round leader bets, KEVIN KISNER 45/1 finished on -4 for a tied 3rd,
If you were betting level stakes then 12 points would have been staked with Kisner returning 10 points, all three players are still in with a chance of winning the tournament with the leaders on -5, KEVIN KISNER -4 BRANDT SNEDEKER -1, LUCAS GLOVER +1
Just one place winner in the outright bets would see another profit this week
In regards to Kazakhstan vs Russia game, Golovin will be suspended which is a major blow. I’d expect Cheryshev will be the main creative outlet. The outcome on that game will depend a lot on how well the Russian giants Dzyuba + Smolov are dealt with, not sure whether one or both will start. Expect a low scoring match.
As you can probs tell, I primarily focus on the corner + card markets now, eager to see how Russia BP are priced. Only thing I’ve got noted for Sunday atm.
Russia will beat Kazakhstan they are to well organised for the hosts to be a threat,i watched the highlights of the Scotland game i have never seen anything like it ok the defending was maybe as bad as Liverpool’s pre Van Djik.
It was much worse than that.
Can’t believe your mocking Liverpool as an example of Scotland’s performance yesterday ?
Russia been operating with back 3 with wings backs, agree that the Kazaks will struggle to create opportunities in this one. My initial thoughts are 0-0 or 0-1 but I’ll be only backing cards if I choose to bet on this game.
I dont have much knowledge of the Scotland situation but I was listening to Pat Nevin on local radio over here last night and while he thought it was a terrible result, he thought the problems lie further than just McLeish.
He was going mad about the fact certain teams refused to release their players to play on an astro turf pitch…….is that the case???? Please correct me if I’m wrong, I may have picked him up wrong, but if that is the case then that’s scandalous and he also said the 3 goalkeepers selected had 3 caps between them.
There were bound to be problems at the back if that’s the case.
For medical reasons Bournemouth didn’t want Ryan Fraser to play on plastic and Cardiff asked for Callum Paterson not to play on it. Both are available for Sunday. For me the scandal is allowing top-flight teams and countries to play on plastic – it should be grass or hybrid surfaces.
The keeper situation is that Allan McGregor has retired and Craig Gordon is injured.
Anyway Gordon had lost his place at Celtic to Scott Bain so he justified his call-up. Bain wasn’t the problem but I think a lot of it has to do with McLeish with several players making themselves unavailable.

Looks like I managed to pick out 2 voids yesterday with the Icelandic pick (IR) being rescheduled to later on this evening!

I just went back into Hills. heisenberg and they have cut the treble down to 51/1 with the boost. They must be getting wise to it .G.L.

Birmingham City have just been given a 9 point point deduction for breaches of financial fair play rules a sanction that sends Garry Monk’s side plummeting down the Championship table to 18th and just five points clear of the relegation places.
I wonder if Man City will be given a points deduction,if Birmingham have then City should but i doubt the premier league will have the bottle,having said that though Chelsea have a transfer embargo which isn’t good enough.
Sounds like Maccas panicking & grasping at straws…..If Man city were going to be deducted points,wouldve happened by now.
How would it have happened by now when the enquiry is ongoing,if they are found guilty then they cheated and should be deducted points.
Yup,its the only way yous are going to win EPL lol
Actually agree wi macca on this..why’s it one rule for one club and another for a different club? Man city probably more guilty than birmingham fs.
City haven’t been punished yet,but i reckon if they are guilty a points deduction will follow as they have already been fined a few years back for the same offence.
Does anyone know if McAllister is available for Peterhead 2moz?
I don’t know yet – hopefully I’ll find out when I get to the office.
