Dark horses of the World Cup, methinks
Am I being stupid to even consider putting just a pound on an 150-1 bet? Because according to my colleague, I am.

Yes. But then, I was considering tipping the Ivory Coast. Then I saw their group. They're 9-1 to make the next round alone. |

Yeah, I'm told Ivory Coast is a better bet but I'm not convinced. Poland have some good players in their side. They won't win it, but surely there's nothing to stop them doing a Greece? At 150-1 a pound is no loss, right? |

Ever thought that they're 150-1 for a reason? Could spend £20 backing everyone that realistically have no hope of winning the tournament, and should something amazing happen you'd be quids in before their price drops.... and when the enevitable happens and they all get dispatched back home you're only down a score...hmmmm..... Anyhoo, Poles have no hope. Me? Sexy Swedes are dark horses - have the same problem as us though in having to face those darn Brazillians before the final. Actually, quite fancy our chances still to be honest. |
