England fans can look forward to Euro 2012 with some excitement. Without the burden of unrealistic
expectation – not even the most short-sighted England observer would makes the Three Lions one of
the favourites – any promise shown by the young squad the as yet unknown manager takes to Poland
and Ukraine will be a bonus.
Before moving on to our opponents in Friday night's game, there are a couple of England stories
to mention: Peter Crouch is out of the squad with a back injury and League 2 side
Shrewsbury Town will receive a £500,000 windfall 'if' Joe Hart
plays in goal tomorrow night: not bad at all for a team that had an average attendance last season
of about 5500 that's about £90 per punter at the Greenhous Meadow Stadium.

The world of sports betting can be your best friend or your worst enemy, can make or break you,
lead you to your fortune or leave you broke. Most of us like a cheeky bet on Grand National day or

Football betting is a massive industry, with millions of pounds, euros, etc changing hands each
season. There are all kinds of punters, from the obsessive fan to the statistics nerd to the
seasoned gambler, and the bookmaking companies are always on the lookout for new customers. One
method that many of the bookmakers have used to bring in new business is 'free bets'.

England's goalkeeping legend Peter Shilton and former Chelsea fullback Graeme Le Saux go
head-to-head 200ft. above London to shoot start the biggest single prize in sports betting history
$100 million.
This spectacle is being staged by Titanbet.com to mark the UK launch of the 100 million dollar
mania.
Michael Owen's brother Terry (40) is the latest person to be investigated into an
alleged betting probe after ringing in a £200 bet on Wayne Rooney staying at Old Trafford
at 7/2 when everyone else was betting against the United striker staying.
Terry rang in the bet an hour before Rooney announced he was staying at Old Trafford and
investigators believe he had inside information which is apparently illegal in the gambling
world.
MOTD2: Fulham: Behind The Scenes from Bilet on Vimeo.
Fulham's Craven Cottage is one of my favorite grounds in the Premier League. So much history and
so much class. So it was a wonderful treat today to come across this behind-the-scenes video I
uncovered which takes the BBC MOTD2 viewers into the places at Fulham that an average punter would
not be able to see.
Punter Dan wins you money for free...again Another profit made last week, with £55 return on our
money. Would have been greater if Livingston's game hadn't fallen foul of the weather (and they'd
won), but profit all the same. Back to the glory of the FA Cup this week, juxtaposed with a few
standard bets [.
Tevez to fire, Milwall to win and a wispy-haired chin Well well, another Christmas over. Not for
me, no way Jose Mourinho. Christmas in this punter's household is very much continuing, with a
hangover that will last until at least 2pm and a weight gain that won't be shifted til 2014.
Anyway, yours truly made [.
One week on from Wayne Rooney's transfer tantrum, and this week's news is all about some proven
players. Carlos Tevez is said to be missing Argentina and wants out, while Pepe Reina and Fernando
Torres are probably just missing the feeling of winning games – hence the duo's supposed wish to
get out of Anfield.

Daily Mail Wayne Rooney must never forget his darkest day Belfast Telegraph It's a day that Wayne
Rooney would love to forget. But he never will. Nor should he. In fact over the next five weeks,

New York Daily News Bet of £37000 on Wayne Rooney by Haverfordwest punter BBC News A bookmaker

Bradley must watch language .
It's a shame Liverpool couldn't do the job last weekend, but United still have a job to do on
Sunday and Stoke, unlike the Scousers, aren't going to lie down and let the champions walk all over
them.
Heading into the final weekend of the season, Chelsea are 1.12 (1/8) to win the Premier League,
with United's odds out to 8.
Ingle all the way
Sit up straight, arms folded, behave yourself and no talking at the back. We've only got the
Guardian's Sports Editor (Editor!) on the line. Sean Ingle, for it is he, has been doing that job
for 10 years and, furthermore, he's bloody good at it.
You'll know by now that I keep going back to the well marked 'Guardian' for these interviews.
The World Cup – a gambler's guide... is a post from: Just Football
Market analysts predict that over one billion pounds will be wagered on this summer's World Cup
in Britain alone, making it the biggest single sporting event in gambling history.
The bookies traditionally offer a huge variety of bets, from the simple outright winner market
to the old favourite of the colour of David Beckham's hair.
I would assume that somewhere along the way you've seen the now infamous video of then Dallas
Cowboys punter Mike Saxson administrating a swift kick to Schellas Hyndman's most sensitive of
areas. Saxson looks so hesitant as he swings and connects, but tough 'ol Schellas barely moves. It
is a shocking demonstration of his mind [.

For the Philadelphia Union's Danny Califf and Sebastian Le Toux it was hanging out with the other

The BBC published a survey this week on the cost of watching football in Britain. An interesting
exercise, the challenge was to find the cheapest day out at football grounds across the
country.
(Note: Twohundredpercent has a cautionary tale about the BBC's methodology and, of course, the
survey ignored the Scottish Football League.
Here's Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee training with the Columbus Crew and I can assure his
current employers that he is in no danger of picking up a new job.
Punter Dan back with his latest installment My only prelude to this weeks bets is to say that it is
nearing the end of the month, so to keep me in real ale, whiskey chasers and scampi fries I am
going all out. One of my biggest ballaches in football is the way overweight men [...]
There were many at the start of the SLeague who opposed the presence of yet another Chinese team
before a ball was kicked. It was, hopefully, not racism that inspired such negativety but hard,
bitter experience.
No Chinese team has made any kind of positive impact on Singapore's premier football league and who
was to say Beijng Guoan, whose mother club took part in this season's Asian Champions League, would
be any different?
Como debió arrepentirse Jesús Gil y Gil de eliminar la cantera del Atlético de Madrid en
1992. Es entonces cuando la promesa juvenil de los mencionados colchoneros se muda al otro lado de
la M-30 al equipo más ganador de todos los tiempos y que inesperadamente encuentra al que sería
su jugador más emblemático de la historia y que será muy difícil sino es que imposible
encontrar quien cubra su ausencia por lo que significa y simboliza para el madridismo.
