It's another Champions League week so that must mean it's time to play 'You Bet' once again and we're on a bit of a bad run, it has to be said. After a win in Week 1, we've lost our stake money in the last two rounds so we're more or less back to the £10 we started off with. Time to win some more, wethinks, so cast your eyes over this week's selection and tell us which you'd like us to put our £1 bet on:
Bet A
Barcelona v Rangers
Draw
Potential winnings: £5.00
Bet B
Manchester United v Dynamo Kiev
Rooney to score from outside the penalty area
Potential winnings: £8.00
Bet C
Slavia Prague v Arsenal
Arsenal to win 3-0
Potential winnings: £10.00
VOTING HAS NOW CLOSED
Voting is now over for Week 4 of 'You Bet' and with 47% of the total number of votes cast, you've told us to put our £1 bet on Wayne Rooney to score from outside the penalty area for Manchester United against Dynamo Kiev (Bet B). Keep your fingers crossed and let's hope 'Spud-U-Dislike' keeps his goalscoring run going!
I figure the only risk of C not happening is if Arsenal scores more than three goals.
ReplyDeleteSigh, prepare the chop block!
Thats exactly what I thought.
ReplyDeleteOr less than three.
Or if Prague score.
;o)
They should be lucky if they score at all in Prague. It's no pleasure to play over there. I would concider this a miracle bet :-)
ReplyDeleteI reckon they will walk it in all seriousness.
ReplyDeleteIts not Sparta Prague its Slavia Prague, and they are a weak side.
Well, yes, I suppose those are alternatives :)
ReplyDeleteI think this is actually an excellent opportunity for Arsenal. There's not a huge amount of pressure to win the game. Plus, it's cold (but not frigid) in Prague tonight, so it's a good way to get used to the winter conditions without having everyone get pneumonia or whatever.
Looks like you were right, Sven. Arsenal just played for the draw, by the looks of it.
ReplyDeleteWell well well... once again we were so near and yet so far. Wayne Rooney did indeed score for Manchester United last night against Dynamo Kiev, but sadly for us it was INSIDE the box rather than outside it.
ReplyDeleteThat means our running total drops below our starting amount for the first time since we started. Thinking caps on for next time... we need some better bets!
Thanks everyone for taking part anyway, and better luck next time...
