A-League Handicapping 2011/12

BigTimeWinner · 02-22-12, 03:42 AM

Seriously I don't know what the hell is going on. I know if CCM don't win tonight and if they play a crappy game, someone was behind it. I'm still optimistic they'll win by a big margin though. 20 minutes to the start.

Taking a stab and going for U2.5, good luck guys.

Yep, late change with Thwaite in. They left that to the last possible moment it seems.

Not sure what is so interesting about Clive shaking hands with the players? Or do you mean interesting line movement?

WOHOOO what a start

Now that is interesting..!

BigTimeWinner · 02-22-12, 04:14 AM

**** this, something is going on here, that was an intentional penalty !!!

Sol · 02-22-12, 04:16 AM

Woo!! under looking good.

glad i didn't lay much coin

TonyDimy · 02-22-12, 04:16 AM

1-1

TonyDimy · 02-22-12, 04:17 AM

The most common end-result when Central Coast leads 1-0 away this season is 1-1.

BigTimeWinner · 02-22-12, 04:21 AM

I would try over 5.5 and over 6.5 if I had this game on live betting. I smell something fishy here ...

MatI · 02-22-12, 04:21 AM

damn, was in the kitchen and missed the equaliser. Penalty Kick? Hopefully we get a replay of it again..

I would try U2.5 instead

BigTimeWinner · 02-22-12, 04:23 AM

THIS GAME IS FIXED. Guys anyone who has live betting on it, try the over 5.5 at least. CCM are SIMPLY letting them score ...

TonyDimy · 02-22-12, 04:24 AM

Haha

I'm telling you buddy, I can smell a fixed match. There will be at least 3 more goals till FT. Possibly the game will end over 6.5

Duff85 · 02-22-12, 04:27 AM

lol zomg an upset is happening... must be rigged.

lol lol lol.

Was going to post some useful advice, but it won't help you. Game isn't rigged though.

TonyDimy · 02-22-12, 04:27 AM

If it is a fixed match, I'd say there won't be any more goals, or maybe just one to make it 2-2 in the end.

nope, the penalty was clearly intentional, two players went on that guy to literally make it obvious that it is a penalty. And the second goals was a complete JOKE.

I don't understand what your trying to imply?

You are quick to jump on the fix band wagon. Let's see how it pans out first. There have been 3 goals in the first 20 plenty of times in a-league. Nothing out of the ordinary yet.

karajohn13 · 02-22-12, 04:30 AM

Worst thing is that I'm at work and I can't bet. BTW, I thought such fixes happened only in Greece

karajohn13 · 02-22-12, 04:34 AM

OFF TOPIC:
Since I know many of you watch a lot of football, did anyone watch PAOK-OLYMPIAKOS two weeks ago. Did anyone have the feeling for a fixed match?

It's just easier to put the blame on someone/something else. On 'the fix' in our case.

I know one thing for sure: those 3 goals were very very unusual.

I didn't but I wouldn't be surprised

I only saw 1st and 2nd goals. Not a single thing was unusual about those two.

UpsetSpecial09 · 02-22-12, 04:50 AM

Just turned it on, Im on CCM...so whats the deal, you guys really think something shady is up?

I do know that I watched the line drop all the way down to -130 before it started and I saw people playing it as high as -200, thats a major movement.

The penalty clearly was intentional mate... Two players went on the striker to take him down like it's an american football game. Second goal for the coast, they just let the goal scorer skim through the defense like they were invisible. I've seen so many fixed scenarios and this one looked like it.

p.s. I remember once my local team had fixed a match(it happened a lot to them, literally it was obvious because they didn't know how to act), and the striker of my local team scored a header by accident, he was not celebrating instead he was holding his head and was unhappy for what he did. Two-three minutes later the away team (who needed the win to claim the championship) scored two goals. One was a penalty, same thing what the mariners did

And second goal was a bigger joke than the second goal. The away team player got the ball from the middle and 'passed through' about 5 players and scored one on one with the GK. I remember we the fans started cheering for the away team because it was soooo obvious, and we were throwing stuff in the pitch.

looks like you should change it to BigTimeLoser tonight.

Seriously champ we don't care if you think its a fix. Take your lumps like a man.

karajohn13 · 02-22-12, 04:54 AM

I "smell" a Central Coast's come back with a last minute 3-3 draw

Such a pity I can't put a small bet on it #conspiracy theories#

UpsetSpecial09 · 02-22-12, 05:01 AM

its doesn't look like there is a single person in the stands, WTF!

I have to disagree completely. The 3rd goal was complete class. Nothing more. O'Hall had all the momentum and had 3 defenders backpedalling with no chance to cover that. Pasfield as GK I know is not the best and it equaled a qoal.

I have seen the PK now. And it was a little soft but there was no Grid Iron take done. Nothing of the sort. And if you knew this umpire, you would know he is the most trigger happy PK umpire in A-League.

They only get approx 2,000 people at Gold Coast games. All stands are closed except for one behind the camera, so you will never see them except for crowd shots.

Clive Palmer thinks he is the coach now. Fuk off fat cat!

I dont care if you dont agree with me either.

gotov · 02-22-12, 05:15 AM

Mati, what i meant was how much involed Clive is with this team now
He was even giving his team a talk at half time
Im sure every other game he is seen in the stands with a meat pie and a xxxx

WOW in 5mins of play the CCM pulled off 2 saves couldve been 4-1
