Thoughts on Man U v Birmingham?

[Dirty Sanchez]

Hleb is back for Birmingham Ji-Sung, Scholes, and two benchers are unavailable. Though Birmingham has won at home against Man U since 1978, they were sitting with their feet up on Boxing Day and are fresher since their match with Everton was cancelled.

Stat: Manchester United 23 straight wins against Birmingham. This is one that makes me look closer as United have won 1-0 in three of the last four games Birmingham.

[mygooglik]

Easy MU win #24 I think ))) BOL!

[irlandais_noir]

Man Utd will win, question is by how much. My main play will be -1, with a smaller one on -2

[Dirty Sanchez]

Just seems Man U is too strong, but Birmingham is a tough place to play on short rest against a team that will probably pack the box on defense and try to get a point. Might be a game to sit back and watch.

Yeah, it looks like another dumb call on my part. . . but at 35 minutes into the match I would have said under, too.

[rumple]

Squares lose in the 90', LoL

[jordigs]

1-1 on 90'+ ...

[Dirty Sanchez]

Pretty funny when guys post in the 90th minute...that takes some stones. Just a tough match, Birmingham is a tough out on their home pitch. If they sign Robbie Keane in the transfer window they could be a good betting opportunity in the 2nd half of the season, especially at home.

This damn game is one huge money hole. It is impossible to freaking hedge even if you can bet at the half. Like today, I played over 2½ goals on the man u game. I know I shouldn't have but i'm a damn degen. I knew it was a bad bet from the start. So, no goals scored in the 1st half and i halftime bet at 5dimes for the under 1½, and what do you know? another damn goal near stoppage time screwing me over on both damn bets and now im freaking broke over a stupid ass soccer game (no offense for those Europeans, i know this is your main sport).

I can not count how many damn times a stoppage time goal has screwed over my spread or totals. And the best part is there is no damn official stoppage time rules for all leagues. In England you get 3-4 minutes stoppage time, in Australia it's like what one minute? by the way, Australia league is rigged I have proof yet i bet on i\t because it's a late night game.

And I did not bet on this game but I feel bad for the over players in that Everton game. 1-1 at the half and not a single freaking score in the 2nd?

And don't give me crap about value in soccer betting. every damn day the books are getting more and more sharp about soccer.

Goals near the end of the game... so picture this: I got 3 bets ALL winning in an Australian game. I'm counting my money yet BAM goal 89th freaking minute. How many times has that happend to people here, counting their money and at the last second you are wiped out? I can't even begin to tell you how many damn times this has happened to me. Brings me to the point about soccer rigging. I think most of the leagues even England are rigged. How can both teams not score any damn goals for 85 freaking minutes yet score 3 in 7 minutes at the end of the game (including the extremely long stoppage time English games have). You can tell both teams up the pressure when the game is ending or they just don't give a damn anymore. How can you explain a change that quickly in both teams? AND THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS.

And people say Bodog sucks? heres a news flash you clowns: Bodog is the only book where U.S. players can actually live soccer bet just like all those European books have. This gives you many chances to make up for your mistakes. It's just too bad i left there.


**** soccer go burn and die in hell where you freaking belong.

I'm sorry to inform you but if you don't watch the teams play live on a regular basis or have no basic understanding of soccer formations or manager's tactics in the game of soccer you shouldn't be betting. When the coach of the home team is choosing a lineup with 3 defensive midfielders and a lone forward for a home game his intentions are pretty clear. Not to lose. So any under bet or handicap favoring the home team has tremendous value. Especially when the away team is playing without its best 2 wingers in attack that can open up a tight defense. So next time spend more time in learning soccer tactics and formations before the game starts which are available 30 min before kickoff instead of blindly betting the over just because the team playing is #1 in the tables.

Stupid play on my part, Birmingham are rock solid at home. Got wrapped up in homer hype. Still, that last minute goal was complete BS: a foul, a handball and a (possible) offside. A buddy lost a G on it. Time for video replays!
