Stealing Money - 13

[Ken4155]

Gillingham currently occupy the 92nd spot in the Football League with 14 points from their first 23 games - which includes just 2 home wins. They have reached this 3rd round of the FA Cup by disposing of two non-league sides - Dag & Red and Fylde - both by a 1 goal margin.
They are at home again, this time v a Leicester City side who sit just below mid-table in the PL and who have won 3 of their last 4 away games - sole defeat came against Liverpool thanks to two own goals.
PL teams usually field under-strength teams in the 3rd round when playing much inferior opposition, but even if that occurs, Leicester should be far too much for Gillingham to handle.

Willy Hill offer EVENS (from 1/3) that Leicester score a goal in the First half. £10 max stake.

Morning Ken, last of the big spenders here! I've bet 50p on a draw at 5/1 so an expected return of £3.

I don't follow/understand sports at all but googled the match and I believe that Leicester as well as the couple of own goals, could of done better against Fulham - who knows? So maybe they are having an off spell and I'll triumph with my 50p.

Good luck with your bets today.

[carrot99]

Hopkirk are you suggesting I should also do 50p on Gillingham to win? I'll do it.

[carrot99]

Yep 50p at 10/1 Gillingham to win £5.50.

Come on you Gillingham's!!

[Maydup]

And yet Portsmouth are 21/1 to beat Spurs……?

[Ken4155]

Hoppy, i may lose a tenner, but i'll never eat my words. Tried it once and it gave me indigestion.

[Ken4155]

Carrot, i think it's "Come on you Gills." :-)

[Ken4155]

Lost a tenner. Leicester have been abysmal and
Vardy may as well not be on the pitch. All the possession but just the one shot on target.
Carrot, hope you win your £5.50 :-)

I'm watching this game and I wasn't quite tempted enough.
It's gone pretty much how I thought it would .... the weather and pitch making it a bit scrappy.
I expect Gillingham to tire in the 2nd half and Leicester's experience to get them over the finishing line .... but hey ho it's an FA cup tie and anything can happen ....

[johnny.5]

Vardy Iheanacho or Tielemans

[Hopkirk]

Did they steal your money?

[johnny.5]

bring on barnes and daka

[Hopkirk]

Barnes and Daka. Didn't they do a session on Radio 1 Extra?

[carrot99]

Thanks Ken. It's a bit of fun on a miserable Saturday.

[Ken4155]

"Did they steal your money?"

I think 8 of the 13 have been successful so far, so i prefer to see it as they 'stole' some of 'their' money back :-)

[Arksided]

I’m not a betting man but quite enjoying the game, no spoilers but rooting for Gillingham

[Hopkirk]

What are the odds on Frank Lampard being moved on soon?

[Ken4155]

^
Arky, SkyBet were offering 2/1 (from evens) for Rashford to have at least 2 shots on target last night. His goal from the spot was his third - £30 back :-)

[Ken4155]

Hoppy, surprised he's lasted this long.

[Hopkirk]

He and Stephen Gerrard are similar in so many ways. The latest is that neither can quite cut it in Premiership management.
