    Nothigam Forest

    Inverness

    Aberdeen

    Odds of just over 5-1

    Did you need to put in a token for this promo, or does your fiver bet automatically qualify you?

    Larson, need to opt in on a certain screen. Your bet will still count towards it, just make sure you opt in soon. Cant remember where the page is. Maybe somebody else can help.

    Well done omm.

    I had 3 of your 4. My 4th was supposed to be a lot more comfortable than your 4th, hence the lower returns, but Celtic made me sweat.

    Got there in the end though :/

    £32 profit, fiver back and the free fiver bet to come to punish the bookies.

    Took me 6 weeks to get a bet up last footy season, so it's a relief to start well for once! :D

    Well done also Larsson! Your team made hard work of that and nearly cost me.

    Unlucky to acegooner, chosing to bet on mickey mouse friendlies probably isn't the way forward for this.

    That's a tip within a tip. Follow me next week cocker ;)

    CHIRP CHIRP !!!

    As I'm enthusiastic about th start of the season, I've had £5 on Blackburn to beat Derby today @ 16/5

    Think this price is way too big.

    For the purpose of this thread, I'll consider it my £5 'freebie' even thought it hasn't been credited yet. Doesn't make any difference. I'll just use the £5 free bet 'off thread' on some mug sport like golf or something ;)

    Cmon the Rovers!

    Sigh, nothing game really, Blackburn the better team and are probably disappointed with a point despite the late equaliser.

    GL all with your free bet, make em regret it !!!!!!!!!

    Balance after week 1.

    5/1 acca = +£32

    Freebie = levelz.

    Total = +£32
