Well that was exciting wasn’t it? bet wise we landed the Dutch to win and more goals in the second half. I was right with Greece game going all the way to penalties but the pesky Costa Ricans prevailed. Gekas has had a bit of a mare of a World Cup. No sooner do I […]

So Brazil and Colombia are the first two teams to the last 8. Brazil were fortunate I have to say and I was able to get a bit more out before the penalty shoot out with Costa Rica trading at 2.3 to qualify. Bar a few inches of woodwork the hosts would be gone and […]

Well you couldn’t chalk that up could you. No wonder at times football trading goes wrong. The Tico’s turn over the Azzurri and the whole group is on it’s head with England out after 2 games. I really could not see that coming but in the aftermath they played well and deserved it. Now Costa […]
