IT was a night for the big guns but as usual one was a letdown.
While Liverpool, Celtic and Rangers eased to comfortable league wins not many expected Man United to get a result at Man City after losing the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final 3-1.
But United gave it a go and recovered a bit of pride as City squeaked through 3-2 on aggregate after a 1-0 defeat.
I left Rangers, who were too short, off my moneyback fivefold but that was beaten by Lille early and then City.
Alfredo Morelos to score first was the Super Single but the Colombian wasn't risked by Steven Gerrard as he had a slight niggle so the bet is void. That means the Bonkers Bet was a losing single.
Well done to any winners including Scott with his Liverpool -1 VIP members bet – and that's six winners out of seven. Greg, HullShaker and SlipsTips also had good nights so well done lads.
It's all about cup games on Thursday with Barcelona v Leganes and Mirandes v Sevilla as well as Nice v Lyon. Not much else to look with a treble on Barca, Sevilla and Lyon paying 7-2 at Coral.
It was going to be a no-bet day for me but I've got two days of the month remaining to try to clear losses so I'm having a small bet on goals. Difficult to research goals for cup games but all look possible as does the Bundesliga 2 game between Hamburg v Nurnberg.
My fourfold has to be for low stakes and is a mixture between over 1.5 and over 2.5 goals.
2pts Goals Bet
- Barcelona v Leganes over 2.5 goals (6pm)
- Hamburg v Nurnberg over 2.5 goals (7.30pm)
- Nice v Lyon over 1.5 goals (7.55pm)
- Mirandes v Sevilla over 1.5 goals (8pm)

Cheers, its usually fine margins.

St Johnstone not humiliated ✅
Nice one – looked another 7-0 at one stage.
Cheers – really did fear the worst at 0-3 after 30 mins.
Credit to them for keeping the score respectable.
Wel played Greg excellent tips.. Yet again
Had rangers – 1, celtic – 1, Liverpool – 1 and united/City btts, close but no cigar!
Easy cover there though but might have been risky.

Poor showing from Man City lets me down big time,a poor quality football match from both sides,i must not forget City are not what they were and you can see with the Premier League Title more or less gone they are not 100%.
Well done all winners
Some of the chances they missed were unreal but as you say not the team they were and maybe it’s because they know this season the title race is over.
They did have some good chances mr f,i think Man Utd had one shot on target and unfortunately that was the Matic goal.Thats the way it goes sometimes.Nothing pointed to an away win unless your a statwhore
BOLIVIAN APERTURA
Another NAP in very early in Bolivia to keep 100% on my Bolivian Naps 4 in a row now, The Strongest game had 5 goals in the end finishing 3-2. The NB was let down by a stuttering Bolivar yet again at Royal Pari. I think in the future I will just avoid Bolivar all together against Pari must be something they put in the water there.

I have now lost my last 23 bets. This is what I went for yesterday:
Real Madrid to win
Real Social Dads aka Real Sociedad to win
Liverpool over 1.5 team goals
Celtic over 1.5 team goals
Man City over 1.5 team goals
Why does it always rain on me?
Pretty much everyone here is tipping singles and you are backing 5 leg accas, is it raining on you or are you just pi$$ing into the wind?
Unlucky but You need to simplify your bets. I know it’s easy to say after the event but Man City were a poor choice last night. (It’s why I wasn’t on them and went for 2 away teams to score 2+ Instead for the NAP and that’s relatively unheard of) Teams that don’t have to win, invariably don’t. Even the stats pointed to an away win. Before last nights match the recent h2h saw the away side win the last 5 from 6.
I used to back 10+ leg accas regularly, now it is always less than 7, but I’m even losing on my doubles and trebles.
I won my very first football bet which was a 15 fold accumulator placed in a William Hill shop coupon.
Can we blame macca because his post convinced me that Man City will steamroll Utd?
You can only blame the Man City players/
Cheers for the feedback Sean. I was looking at your tips for yesterday and could not trust Lille as they don’t do well away from home and Inter let me down at home to Cagliari on Sunday. The odds for PSG were beyond a joke. Same for Rangers at home(I know you didn’t tip them)
Time to give it up for a while is my thoughts If your on a losing streak.
Or maybe cuf it down to dbls or tbls.
Is it because you lied when you were 17 🤣🤣
Your talking b*llocks sean.
How many have been lost by teams playing in cups?
enlighten me macca.
You talk like your an expert sean,that’s why i left them alone,stats mean feck all and City were the better side all in all and had the better chances,United had one shot on target.
They also had two goals dissallowed and rightly so,you must understand a good bet can lose and a bad bet can win.
Didn’t see anyone backing United last night even on dc and that says it all.
Like i said yesterday gigi i backed United earlier in the season and Napped them at 9/1 against City but the circumstances were different,last night nothing pointed to a United win.They sat deep and were hoping to counter which they couldn’t and scored from a loose ball.
I understand that perfectly. just last night for ME they weren’t a good bet, as ive said above about teams that don’t need to win. you don’t need to take the hump because you backed them. you thought they were a good bet and backed them accordingly and theres nothing wrong with that. we all back winners and we all back losers.
I think you should single bet on confident games so that there’s money coming in most of the time. We have parlays here but up to a max of 4 games. Winning 4-fold is tough.
Unfortunately I don’t have the money I would normally stake to place a bet today. My instincts are telling me the following:
Barcelona over 1.5 first half goals @ 2.75
Lyon over 0.5 first half goals @ 2.00
Sevilla over 1.5 goals @ 1.61
Treble @ 8.88 William Hill
Theres no harm in having some time off it. Use it to rethink your strategies, then go again once you feel confident about backing winners. remember the more selections you have the more chances the bet will lose. My mate is an “odds chaser” – constantly looking for bets that only pay over £100 for a £10- £15 stake. Great when he gets them up but he can lose 8,9,10 in a row that leaves him wanting to chuck it. those wins are great when they happen but they are too infrequent. Personally I prefer to win smaller and win often.
Like Sean says you need to think about having a strategy like betting on team goals,match goals or the wdw. And try to keep it to doubles or trebles. If you can win small but frequent is better than chasing big winners from 6fold accas.
Ffs man. Quit your moaning and stop trying to blame others for your losses. Betting clearly isnt for you. Tips are just that tips.. not certs. You have been advised to to singles/doubles.
Really appreciate your thoughts and advice guys, you are all right, even you interyernan, maybe betting isn’t for me? Btw, I was not trying to blame others for my misfortune, it was meant to be a little joke. I know that nothing is guaranteed in life apart from death. I could never blame macca for his tip, his reasoning made perfect sense to me which gave me confidence to go with my pick. I really believe that I am suffering from bad luck, as if someone has cursed me. How would you feel if you always chose the same numbers in the lottery every week for god knows how long and then during that 1 week where you choose not to place your bet or are unable to IT GOES ONTO WIN? Something similar to the above happened to me last month. Do I not have the right to moan?
The sad reality is that no one is interested in the bad beat stories of others Jabba. I don’t think you are cursed, I think that you don’t really understand odds or standard deviation. You can bet singles as you have been advised or you can stick to your method and continue down the same path. Either way no one has to enjoy listening to you moan. Good luck 👍
De Gea too good a keeper yesterday for my bet to stand a chance.
I’m in Greece tonight. Asteras may have lost both matches against Athens but by only 1 goal. They’ve lost only 3 out of 21 in the league by more than 1 and Athens have won 5 out of 21 by more than 1. My money are on Asteras to win, draw or lose by no more than 1 goal.
MY BET:
AEK ATHENS – ASTERAS TRIPOLIS
ASTERAS TRIPOLIS AH +1.5
ODDS: 1,73
(STAKE: 15.00 UNITS)
(BET: 2/100)
I would follow if I had money. 🙄
Looks good to me, good luck and will most likely come in as I won’t be on it.
Try doing a slow burner Jabba. Pick one game a day and start with a £1 and accumulate the win each day. Good fun and you will be surprised how much it adds up to as the week goes by. I usually do double chance or both teams to score. Plenty of tipsters on here to help as well. Some weeks good run,some weeks rubbish but that’s betting. Keep it fun and enjoy!
Thanks Paul, that is some really good advice. But I’m not going to hide anything as I will confess that I am a problem gambler. FOBT’s have literally ruined my life. I am in debt due to my gambling and that is why I am never satisfied with small wins. I keep hoping for that 1 big win.
Your only answer then is to stop.
For A league game tomorrow, I am going with Brisbane AH. Riskier punters may go for Roar win but I would not bet big as A league is unpredictable.
interested to hear your reasoning behind that selection fkb56.
The A league is a bit unpredictable hence I tend to go with ‘ non committed ‘ punts like match goals, btts, corners and cards.
Here is an example of bad luck:
I had been following Greg Brownings French goals tips for a number of weeks losing every time. On December 3 2019, I decided to follow it again. I came home from the usual night shift, changed and took a shower as normal. I started entering each individual selection for the bet which was over 0.5 first half goals in every French Ligue 2 match and over 1.5 total goals in every match. I FELL ASLEEP whilst entering my selections. I then woke up after all the games had kicked off. I was running late for work so had no time for anything else. Was on the way to work in a Uber and decided to check the half time scores. THEY ALL LANDED! Desperate not to miss out, I went in play and chose all games that were not already over 1.5 to have over 1.5 goals. It didn’t land as 2 of the matches failed to go over 1.5.
You told us that one already.
You need to man up or f*ck off.
All this negativity is giving me anguish & nausea.
We all have bad luck stories but we move on & deal with it.
Ive had more losses than wins just like everyone else,but i can laugh about it,it doesnt take over my life.
I happened to look at my balances one day,and over the past 5 years,ive deposited £12,000 and my settlements are £11,250…so im DOWN £750 over 5 years,so not too bad,but not good…But i still go on.
Fair enough and good luck with what you decide but I stand by my advice that you quit.
Thank you Mr F. You are also 100% right when you say I should stop. But you are also right when you say that it is up to me. I am an Adult end of the day and I am responsible for my own actions. I will approach my gambling differently from now with the help of others on this site. Thank you to everyone who has been kind to me and given me their advice.
Sean, basically both teams are on a good run and that’s why I shall try small stake on Roar. What do you think? I took St Etienne AH few days back for the cup game and it won. Of course St Etienne AH was +0.75 whereas Roar is +1.
its not what im on but good luck with your bet.
jabba . I think you are a teller of tall tales amigo . Stick on some country and western music if you want cheering up .
Why do you think that?
N/A
Jabba build your bets slowly with single and doubles. The bookies love gamblers doing accas as they make so much money from them. In an Acca there is always one that lets you down and when you win you think you are going to win all the time! Don’t play their game play yours and you will win gradually.
Thank you for the support Paul. It’s nice to see people offering advice rather than telling me to f**k off. I agree with you 100%.
jabba,life ain’t a smooth ride. but it doesn’t mean that you should forever have yours on a bumpy ride.. someone once told me that a no bet is always a winning bet.. knowledge via negativa..i always consider more than 4 accas 99%losing bets so i keep my stakes low..as for members’ contributions on this site,the likes of macca,greg,sean,cocker,gigikenzo, mr.F,and others i take their views just to inform my selections.. otherwise good luck
Thank you dudush, you are also right with everything you said above. I also look at the others such as Greg and Sean for information and then do my own weighing up before placing a bet. I only blindly follow Greg’s goals tips as it has succeeded before and it is mainly for the excitement.
My thoughts exactly,ever been had lol
Jabba, although I sympathise with your position, MrF is correct, you need to stop gambling and seek help. The last thing you need is to be on here (at all), trying to chase your losses/debt. Take responsibility for your situation and make the decision today to stop gambling. Full stop.
Thank you for the advice kf. I cannot say you are wrong either. I have tried stopping a few times before only to relapse. It’s too hard to completely stop. I really enjoy gambling on football and I will continue but with a devised plan, sensible staking and budgeting. That is where I have been going wrong.
100% agreed on this, you’ve said your in debt from gambling, don’t have funds to follow a bet above, are aware you have a problem and acknowledge good advice but say you won’t follow it. If all that is true there’s only one answer and that’s to seek help to stop
Poor card. Nothing looks solid so just a wee punt on this
Hamburg o2.5mgs
KR Reykjavik o1.5tgs
Valur o2.5mgs
Treble 9/4
Barca over 1.5 team goals
Sevilla over 1.5 team goal
Nice/lyon over 1.5 match goals
Treble 1.5/1
Goodluck everyone
Best of luck Deano, looks like a winner. I won’t be touching it so there’s more chance of it landing.
We don’t want to see your screenshots – you’ve been given plenty of advice and had your say so let’s leave it there.
No idea – you need to ask admin.
They have the right to delete what they want – maybe there’s been too many.
Just called into the local coral to deposit money for a bet i like and they don’t have the games that b365 have on tonight, like the Belgium res
school boy error 🤔
Nice v Lyon goal in both halves 1.70
Club Aurora v Club Jorge Wilstermann goal in both halves 1.70
Hamberg v Nuremburg 0.1.5 match goals 1.20

Hey, Greg, Hull and Sean…(Respectively) any thoughts on the Belgian reserve, Bolivian, Icelandic and Qatari games today…will be a welcome relief from the ‘agony aunt’ drawl, that the thread has deteriorated into today…Cheers in advance for your thoughts 👍👍
Sorry Pete- wasn’t about earlier to post anything. Nothing took my fancy anyway today. Tomorrow- can’t see past an al wahkra win in the first match and btts in the 2nd.
I was looking for some advice and feedback, I’ve gotten plenty of that so thank you to everyone for responding.
Jabba I would be backing
Liverpool to beat Shrewsbury
13-10 fa cup replay
Get on now before price drops
I’d want macca’s advice on that since Liverpool’s team will be as weak as it can.
Yeah jabba back liverpool every game
No reason why Liverpool can’t beat Shrewsbury they beat Everton,it’s at Anfield so good value imo as the u23s have some good players.
Aye too right they were very good v Everton . At that price I will be on them like treacle sticking to a scone .
Haha i knew you would bite macca just hope his losing streak continues with liverpool lol
Am only joking jabba about your losing streak or maybe one more on the fa cup haha
Ok. I guess I have to back Shrewsbury then. Liverpool winning will mean more to me than winning a bet or ending a losing streak.
Jabba this will win
Tennis
Thiem/Zverev
straight sets win-NO
4/7
I think the lads looking for a 10 fold certain acca micky if you’ve got one of them for him 🤣
Thanks Micky but I don’t bet on tennis, I haven’t got a clue.
By the sound of it,you havent got a clue about football either lol
I have backed my team all season long in the league and we’ve only dropped points once. Macca is right, the under 23’s are not bad and should take care of Shrewsbury at Anfield.
Just single them every week then.
Liverpool and under 4.5 goals would have been a great bet this season, it only has gone over twice.
Only joking jabba
No worries mate. 😃
Going for the same teams as mr f . I am taking the safer option tho. All 4 games over 1.05 goals 11/10 SkySpecial featured bets .
Nice v Lyon .The last few French cup ties have been well contested . Hoping for the same tonight

Both teams to see a red 33/1

BOLIVIAN APERTURA
Another two games on from bolivia tonight, both hold reasonable interest tonight. 1st off the reigning clausara champions Jorge Wilstermann are away to an in form Aurora I can see both getting on the scoresheet here, with Wilstermann producing very favourable results against Aurora winning 6 of the last 7 against them home or away, I can see them nicking a close match. 2nd up is Guabira at home Oriente Petrolero.. Guabira with there recent upturn in form will be hard to beat at home but Orienete Petrolero tend to have some of there better results against Guabira winning there last 4 on the road against them which is quite a run, again I can see both on the score sheet here leaning towards Oriente due to there recent run away against Guabira

Well in Mr F 👏🏽
Just landed back in Glasgow – The 4 games you picked were the 4 featured games on Skybet – 12+ goals was 4/5 ( 17 scored)
Nice one Lyon.
Thanks for the tips Mr. F, was late so I only got on like 15 mins ago and Lyon was 1 up and Sevilla two down…took the double over 1.5 goals (Lyon match) & 0ver 2.5 goals (Sevilla match) – got 11/2 (Bet365) and got the LOT!!! Ta. should have taken the double for more goals as two more goals were scored in both matches at the death. What a lovely game football can be.
No joy with my red cards LOSERS
