Man City - A decent bet for tonight?

loadedgimp • October 24, 2012 9:13 PM BST

You are aware that most the City players are not from England right?

Yeah, then please tell me how successful your stupid national team was in the last 10 years?

the english premier league is the best league in europe and city should be eating the likes of ajax for dinner

wtf is going on?!??!

lol 4 strikers on

clueless manager, 4 strikers

This is basically how Manchester City should have started the game. They'd have been four up by half-time.

(Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. )

Have you watched City playing in the CL ever?    Why did you think they would destroy Ajaz?

Ajax*

I will never back Man City again.Got 100 @7s on 3-1 and 1300 @1.1.

Busvaldo, hope it doesn't end in tears for you mate, but City are still capable of winning this at 88 mins.

because ajax are sh!te and city almost beat real madrid in madrid.

who would have thought ajax would beat an epl side EVER?!?

no they are not.

arsenal 0-2 down

Kolarov flopping a lot of crosses.

should mancini be sacked for a terrible champions league campaign?

Ok, I give up.

need one more goal

sofa you did not expect ajax to win tonight, if you say you did you are lying .

No. They should keep him at all costs.
Although on the other hand, they could sack him and fork out the compensation that they can ill afford.
It's a close one.

high lander, it's not a terrible CL campaign! They had Dortmund and Real Madrid in their group.   I haven't seen the other matches (maybe I have but I can't remember them) but the only thing Mancini did wrong was that sub at 2-1, shook the team and is partly the reason for the 3rd.
Even his sub Kolarov has been pretty poor tonight.

I wouldn't say I'm surprised by the result. I didn't have any bets on though.  Dortmund destroted City at the Etihad a couple of weeks back and City struggled in every CL game last season too.

It has been terrible.  City have spent almost a billion quid but look like they'll finish bottom of their group.

Very tough group, money buys players not games.

2-1 Dortmund.

I am happy with the result as I want Dortmund to qualify for the next round, but I really thought City would be much too powerful for Ajax. If it was Mancini's choice to sit back after taking the lead, he really should go if they fail to qualify for the next round again. No way they're going to progress with him at the helm.

if mancinin cant handle the cl he will get sacked

lots of managers can win the prem with the money hes had to spend

I think Ajax will disagree. (Think Dinamo Zagreb last year.)

loadedgimp it's not so much the results against dortmund and ajax tonight, it's about the terrible performances in both games.

they have been truly awful

true.  Terry Connor,Phil Brown or Roy Keane would've won the PL last season with that team.

As far as I am aware only Mourinho has proved capable of that iamhewho, can you name some candidates?

didnt need to red mu 4.5

fckn nightmare

ontop pf that layed ajax @2-1

LMAO Roy Keane

we dont know cos they havnt had the money

but what would rednap and moyes do with those spends

those are my noms

Out of Dodge City,phew!

I think Lescott high fiving the bench and grinning when he got subbed for the Ajax goal says it all about this team

just shut your eyes and think of the money!!!

one day id like to see mick mcarthy have 100 million to spend

i think hes done well with what hes had

and arsenal beat at home as well wtf is going on

prem is much easier to predict

im approching month end

was on for a record month

but 2 bad days on footie and my grayhound bot fukcd up and cost me 27 %

-4.42% on cl today

-60% with Man City defeat

swap ye iamhe who

wow 60%?

how dare you be liable for so much of your bank ?

especially on Man City in the CL?

how much % you making a month average or good month bad month ?

I'd like to see how Mick handles a dressing room with people like Balotelli in it.  You seem to think it's easier with lots of money, I think it's harder hence why there's less managers who are suitable.
Di Matteo is doing an amazing job, he only does a great job because the players love him.  Mancini has a hard job because the players are spoilt and sulk if they don't play.

fck off harder

mick probs wouldnt bye balotelli would he

stop nit picking gimp ffs
who are you mancinis dad

Ha ha, not in a million years.

Who signed/kept them?

I think Ajax will disagree. (Think Dinamo Zagreb last year.)

The same Zagreb who are sitting bottom of their group?

Dunno about that, I had Arsenal, real madrid, City, AC Milan,  and laid PSG.  Bad day all around.  Only bit I made today was putting a very small stake on olympiakos.  So now I've backed santa clars so the day I am having stay well away from that game lol

200 lose,feels like a win!

I honestly couldn`t see City get beat. I bet them 2.04, then layed Ajax when 2-1 and again 3-1. That`s life, some you win, some you lose. If Dzecko had scored with one of the good chances he had with 20 min left, it`s a different ball game, but he didn`t.

Bank was 2000% up for past week or so. Still well up, but time to draw oars in for a spell. Good luck.

whats everyone picking up a month average percentage wise

if yas dont mind saying

just wanna know if my targets are piss poor or decent

20-30% a month for me.

4k up for 2 months,made a bad decision against my better judgement,hey ho!

you're doing well if you make any profit here.  Only 5% of Betfair users are profitable apparently.

thats defo achievable for me like
full time since april

record so far is 26%

but ive turned a few corbers and i think between 30% - 40% is defo realistic

and none of that 5% are on this forum

one is right here :)

nice one. hope you've withdrawn some.

ive heard 10%

and im in the black since i started full time in april

but down overall as ive been on betfair for years

i count myself as one also

speak for yourself, kid.

well done maz

i am down overall but have been turning steady profit since last december.

Its been strange lately, everything I back lately goes pear shaped.  I could back crawley against Barcelona and barcelona would get stuffed lol.
Swings and roundabouts I guess.  Weird thing is that its my big stakes that are failing.  The daft couple of quidders are in the main coming in.   Even went onto overs backing at one stage but they seem to end up 0-0.   Its happened to everyone I guess so its just a case of riding it out.
Take the newcastle sunderland game, I would make anything from 100 to 800 on any result bar 1-1.  Its laughable really because it keeps happening

today was the first in a long time that i lay'd a team and it went t!ts up. Going to stick with what i have been doing. Citeh were shocking.

A good wedge and sensible staking will see you ok.I go in heavy sometimes and get fcucke...it happens.

lately ive been taking worse odds than i should

but ive sacked my bot which cost me 27% this month

wasnt making me much in a good month anyway so ive let it go

the betfair forum has 99% of all the delusional punters it seems

i lost 5.5% on this game. Not the end of the world.

Thanks sofaking. TBH, I`ve withdrew the most mate. Lesson I learned a long time ago. If you don`t one just makes bigger bets. Win withdraw and rebuild, thats my strategy.

sofa is on his 15th bank....... this month

i dont like it cos then you cant use compound interest and you slaray will never grow

  hilarious but true.

bigger bets equals biiger wins

if its the same percentages its all good

Its true but sometimes like with the streak I have had you just cant double up anymore lol

yes as long your % at stake remains the same.

of course

discipline discipline discipline  and more discipline

i bet no more than 2% of my stake per bet (today was exception) and turn over 20-30% profit a month easily.

2% of my bank*

Think I'll go bak to point shaving again and build a new stake

im on max liability 5% but rarely go that high

i can max upto 10% if am super confident but its very very rare..learnt my lesson the hard way.

maz, maybe if you increase your liability afew points youl turn that 20-30 into 30-40 %

yes i have thought about that..its under consideration lol.

this month with what 7 days left target will be 10%

next month target 35% = shouldnt be a problem

value is sharapova right now..if u fancy a small bet. i am heading over there :)

sht man make that 5% fckin bot!

im intrigued and shall have a look
