  • £10,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.18
    If you’ve already read my ‘Go Dutch for Goals’ post you’ll know there’s a few games in the Dutch First Division that look likely to be see a few goals tonight. Of the six games I’ve highlighted I’m going to go with the match at Cambuur versus Emmen. Cambuur are the league’s top scorers with 43 goals scored in 16 games –...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.65
    It’s amazing what a win can do you for you. Suddenly doing the Challenge seems like a good idea again. No doubt I’ll be brought back down to earth with an almighty bump but here goes with Bet number 65. It’s my favourite league, yep, Norway’s 2nd division and they’re now beginning to get into their stride after 5 games played. It’s...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.64
    £20,000 Challenge? Pah! Don’t make me laugh, I’ll be happy to make it back up to £20 at this rate. LLLLLLL. 7 loses in a row. Count them. It makes for some ugly reading. I’m so embarrassed that I’ve not even updated my stats on the top right hand corner of the screen. So where do I go from here? Well the UK season is all but over and £20k is...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.63
    You gotta know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em, know when to walk away, know when to run – in the words of Kenny Rodgers it’s all about quitting while you’re ahead. Once I get ahead I’ll bear that in mind but at the moment I’m behind. Miles behind. A run of shockers has left me with just under £70 in the pot but I’m...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.62
    Right, I’m back with the Challenge again today after a distasterous run of 5 losses. Absolute nightmare. I’ve been waiting on the Scandanavian footy to get back into the swing of things and while the Norwegain, Swedish and Finish leagues still have a week or two before the form settles down, I’ve turned my attention on Danish football. Today’s...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.61
    It’s been a quiet couple of weeks as far the Challenge goes. I’ve been licking my wounds after 4 straight losses that’s seen me lose money quicker than a Northern Rock banker. But the good news is that the footy is starting to return in Scandanavia where I plundered the Overs market in the early part of the season. Woohoo! It’s a bit too early...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.59 & 60
    I know I said I wouldn’t bet on any English games but here I go again. Glutton for punishment! I’m on MK Dons at Swindon. There always seems to be goals whenever the Dons are playing and they’ve scored more goals on the road than anyone else in the division. Swindons home games average more than 3 per game too so fingers crossed there’s goals in...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.58
    It’s Friday night. It can only mean one thing… Dutch Jupiler League football. Of course. And it’s my old mates AGOVV Apeldoorn again. They host Emmen in the Netherlands 1st Division and it’s got overs written all over it (I hope!). The last 10 meetings between them have finished Over 2.5 goals with an astonishing 4.9 goals scored on average per...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.57
    As prompted by Duffy03691 earlier today – thanks mate! – I got on the Stevenage v Forest Game match for an overs bet. When I checked last night there weren’t too many bookies offering odds but by this evening Paddy Power were offering 4/6 so I snapped that up. I’ve not done too well with betting on games in England so I only went with a £100 stake. Selection:...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.55 & 56
    I had a bit of a lucky escape last week that meant I kept my balance up above £500. I’d rather be lucky than good any day of the week. So I hope my luck holds out tonight. I’m offski for the weekend on a wee trip to Inverness so I’m going to go for two bets tonight in order to keep some momentum going with The Challenge. First up its an Overs bet on...
