carra should retire from international football.

to get overlooked at centre half against a team ranked 110th in the world in favour of ledley king (who's been injured half the season) and not even get a game at right back ahead of wes brown is nothing short of a disgrace.

by the way, gerrard is in desperate need of a holiday. he looked absolutely f#cked last night.

It's possible to guess the results (win, draw or lose) and get silly odds.

The odds just have to be long, i.e. tend to have to be away wins or draws.

It doesnt really matter about away wins or draws they are based purely on the odds, its more down to the teams involved regardless of whos home or away.

Ive been one result away from 250,000 a couple of times before now.

My winnings for the above bet from a 1 pound stake?......23.36 ??? Robbing barstewards :(

I think you missed my point, the odds required for an 8 bet accumulator need to be about 4/1 - these odds are more likely to be allocated for away wins and draws than a home win. i.e. in International games you get joke teams who will have ridiculously long odds home or away, but in premiership games to get 4/1 or better it usually has to be a draw or an away win unless it's like Watford to beat Man Utd at home which would be long odds anyway since it is a relative mismatch.
