I believe it's just LS to place bets now.

To those who have done first scorer bets, remember if your player doesn't score first, you'll lose your credits regardless of whether they start the match or not.

What I've decided to do, is if you notice a player you've placed a stake on isn't in starting eleven, you may change your first scorer via PM, with the stake you placed on the original scorer. I must receive the PM before the game kick's off, obviously.

Also, here's the odds on the first goalscorer bets that's been placed so far...

Ronaldo is 9/2

Torres is 6/1

Adebayor is 6/1

Yakubu is 4/1

[Baddar]

Kou...you lucky bastard.

[Guest Kou]

You call it luck? I call it skill. Cause I got the looks to kill. Now Everton just need to take it home.

Oh well, shoulda been 2 goals for Yakubu but one was taken away. I'm satisfied with my wins.

I know its because they are the bigger teams, and have the most fans, but the big 4 are always going to be really short on price, so maybe you should mix it up a little?

Not trying to tell you how to run this or anything >_>

Noted for next time.

[King Ellis]

No midweek international bets?

Bet 2

5 on Bolton to win

Bet 3

15 on Man Yoo to win

[Baddar]

I probably would've if they were qualifiers. Betting on friendlies is a waste of time, I think.

[Steeb]

You mean, because the bets have such an impact on the games?

Bet 20 on Manchester United to win.
