I like a £1 correct score accumulator myself, won £88 on Brazil vs Costa Rica/France vs Peru.
I'm sure I'm on the lower end of winnings though...

Very tenuous link for me to blag that I won £145 in the Telegraph Championship FFL last season from a £5 stake.
I'm level so far.
Thinly veiled I haven't placed a bet yet.
You have stretched the use of the word tenuous here Mr Baloo. Nice achievement though.Quote:

Hence I am in front.
I'm 6p up on the penny falls at Whitby this week. Does that count?
Yes .Quote:

I'm down £3 after putting it on France to beat Denmark 2-1. Forgetting they both needed a draw :facepalm:
This has lead to a hasty retreat from betting, although Uruguay at 25/1 & Mexico at 33/1 to win the tournament is quite tempting
Not very generous when you factor in that neither of those teams stand any chance of winning the tournament. Surely Croatia look the most attractive of previously unfancied teams.Quote:

I'd suggest either of those teams winning the World Cup would be far less of a surprise than Leicester winning the Premier League was.Quote:

Not sure you, of all people, want to start playing the 'predictions gone wrong' game.Quote:

Fingers crossed.
I'm playing with winnings before anyone says I'm a rich bastard.
Well that backfired :frown:Quote:

Apart from a winner on Argentina to beat Nigeria BTTS Tuesday night I cant pick my nose on the football.
Luckily, I won a few hundred on the machines this last two weeks, which covers the football losses and about £200 profit, so im thinking of just giving the £200 to the wife before I lose the rest of it.
F**k all so far on the World Cup. Managed to get about £160 profit out of Bobby Reid on Football Index yesterday though.
