    They won't offer the bet as a double because one part of the bet directly affects the chances of the other part winning/losing. (they call it 'related bets' in the industry).  If, for example Holland win the Euros, the chances of Van Persie being leading scorer are increased due to the extra games automatically played. Similarly, bookies now offer the scorecast, because many punters wanted to bet on a 1st goal scorer and correct score double. But the odds are contracted, eg, if England are 5/1 to win 1-0 and Rooney 5/1 to score the 1st goal, a normal double would pay 35/1. But because the bets are 'related' the price would be approx 20/1. I know that's a very long winded explanation, but hope it helps.

    Just had a look about the best you can get is about 20/1 on your bet. Which in my opinion is cr ap odds as Holland are 6/1 & RVP 10/1. They dont give anything away, as the old saying goes `You dont see many poor Bookmakers`.
