    500 on milan, think of it as compensation for loosing, or a sacrifice for victory, can't loose either way
    "I have decided to escape, to defy the shogun. Today I will begin walking the road to hell. But you will choose your own path. So, soon you may be seeing heaven. Choose the sword, and you will join me. Choose the ball and you join your mother, in death. You don’t understand my words, but you must choose. So… come boy, choose life or death."

      Lay Liverpool over 90mins on betfair instead of backing Milan. You could end up collecting your bet and still seeing us win.

          excellent avatar mate, i want it
          Bill shankly to Tommy Smith after he'd turned up for training with a bandaged knee:
          'Take that poof bandage off, and what do you mean YOUR knee, it's LIVERPOOL'S knee !'

          "Sorry, boss, I should have kept my legs together," said Lawrence. "No, Tommy, your mother should have kept her legs together!," replied Shankly.

          * After Tommy Lawrence had let in a fluke goal between his legs

            I can get 7-5 on Milan to win over 90 minutes at Paddy Power so I reckon if I put (say) £500 on Milan to win that would at least pay for my most of my trip to Athens and (only slightly) soften the blow if we lose. Obviously, however, I desperately want Liverpool to win but I'd definitely be prepared to lose £500 for us to get Number 6!

            The only problem is a moral issue of backing against my team. I've never done it before and don't want to tempt fate but...

            ...what do you reckon? Would you back against us? If so, how much would you be prepared to lose if we win? Can you get better odds than Paddy Power?

            By the way, this IS an LFC related thread so mods please don't move it to the Gambling forum!

            In 2005 I would have said go right ahead. This time around I really would put it all on LFC. Not just because we are Reds. We are a better side than Milan this time around. I think Rafa will shut them down faster than most here believe.

              ill give you an insight into how my head works.....
              Whenever Liverpool are in a final and I know im going to be ****ing nervous, jumpy and not at all confident about the result I always bet against them, the reasoning is this - if we lose then at least i made some cash and it kinda softens the blow...if we win (as we usually do) then whatever I bet and lose is a small price to pay for us winning! Its like I have somehow paid for the victory!! ha ha ha ha, is this weird or do some of you guys think like this?!
              p.s - my £20 is already on Milan just like it was in 2005!!!! (same betting shop, same day of week bet placed)
              Cant wait for next week!!!

                Isn't that what I said in my original post, Marty?

                I haven't had a bet yet but I can't see the point of doing £20 as with odds of 7-5 you'd win £28 which is probably only a round of drinks in Athens or a bottle of beer in Concert Square...

                  I don't think I could pick the winnings up if I'd bet on Milan. I think I'd have to drive to Manchester to pick them up

                  It's almost like betting on the SCUM and the Chavs to win the league next season

                        Easy to spend and get rid!

                        I see the sense in RS4 possible bet but I agree with CAD, I think we'll win and I have about 90% confidence in that. They have declined since 2005. We have got better.

                          I bet on LFC v Milan to be in the final before the Barca game, and turned my $100 into $1400 ALREADY.

                          Now I have $100 on LFC to win outright, $100 on a 3-2 LFC win, and $100 for LFC to win in regular time. if all three lose, I'm still up $1000. Otherwise I'm up a ton.

                          Will not bet on Milan over LFC ever. Hedging or not, you gotta believe.

                            I had money on us to meet AC Milan in the final (before the Barca game) as well.

                            Only I've forgotten which online betting account I used and can't find my money!!!

                            I'm sure I signed up for a new account with someone, which I do quite often to get the freebies and now I can't remember which one!

                                Post about your problem in the Computing & Technology Forum and someone will help you out. You can check which sites you visited but I don't know exactly how to do it. You can also of course ask for details from your bank if you paid with a credit card.

                                Just believe and you never know what will happen.

                                According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.
