Perhaps I should have learnt my lesson after going low on UK gold medals at the Olympics. But I haven't.
I was looking yesterday at England for the 2014 World Cup - in terms of a poor performance of course - following their abysmal Wembley matches: two defeats, no goals and no shots on target against the German reserves. William Hill was going 3/1 for them to be eliminated at the group stage but unfortunately that has now disappeared and the best price is now 5/2 which is too short to get involved at present.
So I have turned my attention to another sport that I shouldn't really be betting on - cricket!
Ian Botham's prediction of a 5-0 series win for England looks a tad optimistic after just the second day of a potential 25! I have gone with the home side in the belief that confidence may not recover in the England camp. Just a couple of small bets as follows:
1pt Australia to win the series 5-0 @ 36.0 betfair (33.25/1 after 5% commission)
1.5pts Australia to win the series 4-0 @ 14/1 William Hill (16/1 Ladbrokes if you can bet there)
2.5pts staked
