Glad to have been a part of it!

That just makes the odds even more tasty for when it happens in Euro's


And also you have to wait for that bet to be settled before you get the free bet, so anyone wanting to capitalise for the Euro's will have to bet on an event that finishes at least 24 hours before.


Yep it has been. Lot's of great shares and I think this is the easily the most-posted season-long betting thread I've been involved in.


And then some. If I was a betting man () I'd say at least half the posts were yours

Just had this through from Coral. They are doing a live preview show tonight at 7:30 pm discussing the England squad and lots more.

"With the eagerly anticipated European Championships just days away, we are having a star studded preview night tonight (Tuesday 31st May) streamed live from the link below.

Harry Redknapp, Didi Hamann, Ray Houghton, Mark Langdon (Racing Post) and Scott Minto, along with Coral’s own Simon Clare will be providing their expert tips and insight on all aspects of Euro 2016"

Just seen on Twitter that it will also include details of their offer and promotions for the Euros, one of the few bookies that have not released their offers yet so could be worth a watch!

Ladbrokes have some time limited offers on today

12.00 – 1.00
England to win Euro 2016 and Harry Kane to be Top Goalscorer – 66/1

1.00 – 2.00
Any England player to score a hat trick WAS 6/1 NOW 8/1

5.00 - 6.00
England to win all their Group Games WAS 4/1 NOW 6/1

https://sports.ladbrokes.com/en-gb/betting/daily-price-boosts/

Think a few quid of the 66/1 long shot might be worth a punt!

First of the bet365 special offers for the euros announced!

Penalty Payback

Place a bet on the To Win Outright market for Euro 2016 and if the team you back is eliminated on penalties, we will refund your losing bet.

This offer applies to both Win and Each-Way bets. We will be offering this market In-Play throughout the tournament, and it will be available until the Euro 2016 final kicks off on Sunday 10th July.

Stuck £20 on England to win tonight at 21/20 and got wife to stick £20 on Portugal to win at 3/1 so hopefully will get at least my money back (can't see it being a draw). Hopefully will get lots of free £5 bets to use of the Euros as these friendly games usually have a few goals!

Knowing my luck, it will end up a 0-0 draw and I get nothing! Still think it's a good offer and likely to turn into a few quid plus a few free bets!

On the Sky Bet Euro 2016 request-a-bet specials I got 66/1 on Marcus Rashford to score at least 4 goals. Worth a fiver I think. He's 150/1 to score 6 or more, but I don't want to back that.

For anyone interested:

Anyone know of a decent, in-depth guides to the squads and their chances at the Euro's? I will be properly studying the form from Sunday onwards and so far the best run-down I've found is this:

http://www.theguardian.com/football/...ayer-in-france

I'm leaning more and more towards bets on Spain to win the thing...

My tournament bets are set now.

Golden boot:
£4 Lewandowski 14/1
£3 De Bruyne 50/1
£3 Milik 100/1
£3 Gomez 28/1

Outright Winner
£10 Germany 7/2

For every game that Germany win I get a £3 bet, so hopefully they fund match bets throughout.

Racing post betting guide to the tournament is in the paper today

365 have BTTS on the England/Portugal game tonight as 1/1 at the moment. I'd have thought that was a no-brainer myself.

Oh well, money back plus a fiver free bet, not quite the outcome I was hoping for but still better than nothing.

Pretty dull game and doesn't say much for England's chances given that they were playing against 10 men for most of the game.!

Think again!

Ill give you 100/1 on Rashford getting three goals +

Betway doing the same as Paddy

Place a top goalscorer bet on the Euros of at least £25 and we’ll give you a £5 Free Bet for every match your player scores in*.

Noticed that Martial is 25/1 Is he a likely starter for France ?

If Benzema is playing then he might be played out wide like he is for Man United. If he played up front he'd be in with a good chance of winning it.

Actually I just looked to see if Benzema was injured and he's been left out of the squad. So Martial may well play in the middle.

Thanks for that

I have now backed him

Thanks for that. Don't really do horses any more so tempted to tea-leaf the Euro section out of the paper but they also had a preview of the Derby as well so I spent the £2.30. Means I'm already down before I've even laid a bet

With Benzema not going then yeah it could be a good bet.

But then they'll probably play Giroud in the middle.

In any case, a good bet.

Luckily Wenger isn't in charge

Seems a fair price for a youngster who is on the rise and in a team that are one of the favs for the tournament

Aye, they like to play 4-3-3 and Giroud looks like the big favourite to be the middle one of the front 3. Gignac will be his main back-up/competition.

Griezmann will probably be to the right of centre, with Coman as his backup.

That leaves Martial and Payet to fight it out for the starting place as the left-sided forward. This looks like a tougher one to call. Martial has played more games there, but Payet has scored more when he's had opportunities.

Of course, things can change because of injuries, suspensions and form but that's how it appears they're going to approach things initially.

Hills are doing different price boosts each day

Today's is for the confident England fans

"Today only, we are 6/1 on England to win their three group matches!*"

Got an email from 188Bet.com


Money back as a free bet up to £25 if Germany win Euro 2016
Bet £10 on the Round of 16 or Quarter-Finals and get a £10 free bet on the final
10% back as a free bet up to £100 on total net losses on Euro 2016 bets

The middle of the three looks worth doing

Hoping the 3rd one wont affect me..

Yeah will definitely be doing the middle one.

Might use the top one to place a £10 bet on an outsider like Croatia.

Coral's just announced their offers for the euros, available for new and existing customers! Not often Coral give out offers for existing customers!

Their main offer is a money back special, money back as a free bet up to £25 if your outright selection is eliminated on penalties. Worth sticking £25 on England as that's how we usually end up getting knocked out of these tournaments!

They are also doing the Top Goalscorer Free Bet Offer, Bet £20 on the Top Goalscorer market get a £5 free bet every time he scores (which is better than the paddy offer which is for £25 and theirs is £5 free bet for every game he scores in so if they score a hat-trick, you only get one £5 free bet, but with Coral you would get 3).

Both offers go live at 8am on Monday and will be time limited depending on popularity.

They are also doing an enhanced offer which is live now:
Both England and Wales to win their first group game, enhanced to 5/1.

http://sports.coral.co.uk/euro-2016

They also have a nice new customer only offer, worth getting if you don't already have an account.
France or Germany to Win the Euros – 10/1
http://promotions.coral.co.uk/landing-pages/online-betting/

Not football, but I have just stuck £20 on Novak Djokovic to win in straight sets, enhanced with paddy at 9/4!
