3-1 (+1.40)

This will be my soccer thread for the rest of 2012. All of my lines are from 5dimes. I wish you all the best with your wagers and will do my best to provide positive results in this thread.

Good Luck!

I have two wagers for Euro '12 that I want to post now. Both matches will be played this coming Friday, June 8th.

Greece v. Poland (+1.00) 1.00 to win 1.00
-I feel that some folks are getting to smart feeling that the Greeks can win. I like Poland in a low scoring match.

Czech v. Russia -0.5 (+1.14) 1.00 to win 1.14.
-same as above, see a fair amount of love for the Czech's. I see this one as lop-sided. Of course I have been wrong on numerous occasions.

I am tempted to take Germans to win (+3.08) and i still might, just not that sure. Good Luck!

Ireland has conceeded 3 goals in their last 14 matches with 11 clean sheets. This should be a tight game and I am tempted to play the Irish to win, instead I'll use the handicap as insurance.

Good Luck.

Croatia -0.5 (+2.36) v. Italy. 1.00 to win 2.36.
-I was a big Irish backer and Croatia smashed 'em, feel they do the same against (IMO) a weaker team from Italy.

Luck & Laters!

not to change yer mind on yer croatia bet...but ireland is dregs...absolute rubbish...there is positively no fluidity to their game...thus making croatia look more appealing...shay given is always a soft goal waiting to happen and their defense couldn't clear a dirty dinner table let alone a ball in the box

appreciate your response, I diagree with you saying that Ireland is dregs. I believe that Ireland plays a different style to most popular clubs but have success non-the-less. I feel that they might have looked at Croatia as a lesser oppenet and got 'caught'. As far as Croatia they and Italy play similar styles (IMO) and the difference being that Croatia is playing with more confidence and are in solid form. Perhaps (doubtful) that Italy looks at Croatia as a 'lesser; club and before they know it they are down 2-0? All in all should be a great match, hope the Italians go Jersey Shore and forget whats going on.

Ireland v. Spain UNDER 1 (+1.16) 1H. 2.00 to win 2.32.
-I look for the Irish club to get refocused after over looking the Croatians. They will correct to form and play defence first and pack the midfield making a Spanish team that might be lacking motivation from scoring until late in the match.

as always, Luck & Laters!

'clear a dirty dinner table let alone a box'. prior to the Croatian match, the Irish conceed 3 goals in their last 14 and had 11 clean sheets. Please, do your own home work before placing wagers.

don't need to do homework when i watch a team concede 2 pathetic goals because they can't clear the ball out of their box...that's just a fact...winning qualifiers is a whole different game than the actual euro games that count(ask the dutch)..ireland won't catch a point in this tourney in my opinion...and i respectfully disagree that italy is a weaker team than the irish....

understand your points, one match doesn't make the squad. I am assuming that you have played sports (which one doesn't matter) and you can agree that a game/match alone doesn't define a team/club. If it's qualifiers or not doesn't make much difference to me as both squads know the stakes and are playing the same game, it's the results that matter. If you feel that strong about the match would you suggest playing Spain (huge odds) or laying the handi? Great banter and again thanks for stopping in, I have strong feeling on Fridays matchs, hope you stop in.

apologize if you took it wrong. When I was talking about doing you own home work I was talking about a viewer not taking our two cents on a match and placing a wager, I was pointing out that they should do their own work before placing a wager. Sorry, if I got you rubbed.

1-0-1 (-1.00) last set of wagers. 6-6-1 (-2.13)

I didn't double check my last wager results, believe them to be right...please correct me if I'm wrong.

Spain v. France.
-I'm seeing a fair amount of backing for France, not sure why as they are IMO the lesser squad in this match. The reports of fighting on the French club cannot be good leading into a match with the Spanish. I also believe that the French lack leadership and toughness required to defeat the Spainsh.
Spain (-1.15) 2.30 to win 2.00.

Good Luck and enjoy your weekend.

BOL ! Today

I'm having a Hard time with this Match Up because Spain has never really done good against France... I think they are something like 0-6-1 in the last 7 Major matches or whatever they are called

1-0 (+2.00) today. 7-6-1 (-0.13)

Italy v. England.
- two solid clubs with a fair amount on the line. I see two solid goal keepers backing solid defensive clubs. The English have some fire power, feel that will be cancelled by a tight Italian squad that might feel that they are in the shadow of the English squad. I feel that the English will play a defense first type of game and take what the Italians 'give' them.
UNDER 2 (-1.24) 3.72 to win 3.00.
1-1 (+4.94) 1.00 to win 4.94.

all the best gents!
