Bet he thought his bet was coming off. :lol: Serves him right.
A hefty World Cup bet of 40,000 pounds on England to beat Sweden on Tuesday evening has been placed at odds of 11/8 with bookmakers William Hill — by a Scotsman.
“The man stands to collect 95,000 pounds if his bet comes off,” said a spokesman. “It is remarkable that the biggest bet yet placed on an England game has come from a Scottish client.”
England, who have already qualified for the knockout stage of the Cup, play Sweden in the last of their round-robin group matches at 1900 GMT.

Your opinion regarding English football ranks alongside Mary J’s! :lol:
I know Mr A.
They havent beaten them since the sixties. It’s certainly not a well thought out bet.HE’D HAVE LOVED A BET ON SCOTLAND BUT………………………….
A quietly encouraging game, I thought. Two beautiful goals from open play and a timely warning to the defence to tighten up on set-plays.
If Mickey Owen is crocked, though, that’ll be a blow.

Is Walcott our lucky mascot? :-s

It’s been confirmed that Owen will miss the rest of the tournament.
I bet Sven’s now regretting his decision to take only 4 strikers with him.
He’s now only got 3 strikers. 1 of them isnt anywhere near fit. One of them is an untried rookie.
I think England might live to regret not having a proven Premiership goal getter like Jermain Defoe in the squad.I’d say so. To be honest, we could have done with Darren Bent being there as well. Jenas and Walcott probably won’t be used and shouldn’t have gone, I reckon.
Still, hindsight is a wonderful thing. Besides, England have a good tradition of making positive out of calamity. The general open play was good last night. As I said, we just need to tighten up those defensive set pieces.
