Callum_Doon 1,036 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Discussing this in the pub, Sunday and it brought up some questions we thought were an issue. If, say... you fancied a 3-1 win for us - home or away - it was decent odds, say 7-1 and you had £50 on that. (A) We're winning 3-0, so do you want the opposition to score one goal? (B) We're win winning 3-1, do you not want us to score again? We simply couldn't understand how anyone could bet on a correct score, also be 'financially impartial' under these and similar circumstances, yet either want us to concede a goal, or not score again. How would you reconcile this?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those questions still remain though: you've bet on 3-1 and it's 3-0, do you want them to score? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you fancy the odds are right now of winning the league - without looking it up! I have no idea - guess we're maybe 7/4. What do you think? Anyone else want to have a guess and see what we make of it right now (no checking!) AyrshireBlue... what do you reckon? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you watch/listen to the game? What if we're 4-1 up, do you want them to score!? We could understand putting a correct score bet on if not watching/listening to the match and simply awaiting the outcome. Otherwise... no! Surely there could be a conflict!

Mate it's a bet who cares?? off course you don't want them to score , but if they do so be it. As long as you bet Rangers to win then there is no conflict of interest.

How would you reconcile this?! Had us 3-1 to beat hearts a few weeks ago because I thought that's what the score would be. Was at the game & was still raging at the time when they did, even if it was 3-0 lol As long as you're not betting against us, regardless of the score, I don't see the problem. If you win some cash and we win at the same time then its the best of both Callum_Doon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I bet Rangers to beat Hearts 3-0. As soon as we score the 3rd I cash out, thinking that we're going to score more goals. Somehow I missed the Hearts goal, and I was cursing myself for cashing out so early. When I looked at the on screen clock, it had 3-1, I thought that this was a mistake. I was mighty glad to find out it wasn't wrong, and that I had done the right thing. I still don't know how I missed their goal??? Perhaps I nodded off for a few minutes? It happens..??

Callum_Doon 1,036 Posted October 24, 2018 Author Share Posted October 24, 2018 You just have the feeling... 4-4 against celtic come Saturday. £100 on @ 33/1. It's 4-3 to us and celtic are awarded a final kick of the game penalty. If...they miss it... Glorious victory. If they score, ends up a devastating last second draw. However, you win £3300.

left winger 13,977 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 That’s why I never place first player to score bets. Wouldn’t have wanted a tenner on Morelos to score first, then seen Kent clean through on Sunday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
