You’re just peddling bullshit, if you’re so certain that 16-1 is far too generous why don’t you take the bet at 14-1, it seems a no brainer, you can pay in installments if the unthinkable happens.
I usually wouldn’t bother but you’ve repeated this shit a few times now and it’s gotten tiresome

Jesus you were right to be so bullish about the English. Was real value bet pal.

They’ll compete with anybody, there’s no outstanding teams this year, I’d give them a fighting chance and at 16-1 they’re not a terrible bet in comparison with the six teams priced lower

@backinatracksuit knew

Are you high? England will do nothing.

@anon7035031

Competing and losing is what England have been at since 1970, no reason to think this tournament will be any different. They’ll get out of their easy group, but that’s it.

Spain, Germany, France and Brazil are outstanding teams compared to England. There are another 10 teams who would fancy their chances against them.

You only watch the Premier League so you don’t know what you’re talking about. Spain have about ten midfielders better than England’s best one. Their number 1 centre half is a lad who hasn’t played a league game in three months. Their left back is either a lad who’s getting relegated or Danny Rose who can’t get in the Spurs team and was a much better player two years ago or a right footed winger. None of their keepers are great

To be fair - They have done nothing and yet find themselves in a semi - Everything has fallen for them.

When was the last time England won a big game at a major tournament?

Last Saturday

Explaining = losing

[anon61956325]

I’m not bothered about little details like that. I’m happy to explain away…

Well done @backinatracksuit, but given the tip wasn’t posted in the dedicated betting thread I can’t give you any further pats on the back or emojis.

[TheUlteriorMotive]

I backed England at 9/1 after I think @Fagan_ODowd made a pressing case for them

Glorious all white

Looks like the respective colours will be very like this:

Why havent Croatia played with their famous chequered strip this world cup?

[the_man_himself]

Spain lost their manager the day before the tournament started. It remains to be seen whether I am right or wrong about the England team. I’ve been largely right about them on a game by game basis so far

what I recall is you laughing at my claim that they were a value bet at 16-1, then being too much of a steamer to put your money where you mouth was even at enhanced odds,
Then of course there was the time that they found themselves 6-0 up or something like that against a team who was playing better than them

[the_man_himself]

You seem to have forgotten about it but I stand by the commitment I made to give 200 euro to a charity of your choosing if England win the World Cup

That never happened

@the_man_himself

There was nothing frightening in the last Euros or World Cup either and they embarrassed themselves. They might return to their former glory of a quarter final but that will be about it

@the_man_himself

I’d expect Colombia to beat England

@the_man_himself

Their team is no better than it was for the last Euros or World Cup, maybe worse

@the_man_himself

ya

@the_man_himself

They provide a lot of laughs every two years in fairness

If this is you being right, I wouldn’t like to see it when you’re wrong.

You position yourself as a football expert, with glorious little insights like ‘James is a lovely footballer’ but really you’re a WOOF merchant, ‘Miguel Delaney’ light and have called this spectacularly wrong. It will be interesting to see if England get to the final if you will try come up with a woofism to spin it that you were right retrospectively.
