beej Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Flicked through the odds on the 2010 World cup today and was shocked at some of the numbers.... Portugal 20/1 Italy 12/1 England 6/1 Ghana 80/1 Czech Rep 1000/1 I'm personally going for the on form African Nation Ghana to take it this year. Anyone else?

Treborz Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Ghana lost to Benin today in a qualifier. By the way some of those odds are long as some of the teams havent qualified yet and have to get through the playoffs. Their prices will come down once they have booked their place.

Not a bad tinkle at 80-1, I chose them over the Ivory Coast, but those mother fuckers are looking sharp as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_TGT Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 ehmmmm... Portugal 20/1 Italy 12/1 England 6/1 Sorry... England? Never ever.. Italy, France, Spain, Brasil, Germany, Portugal & Argentina (if they make it) are likely to beat them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beej Posted October 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 As an eachway there are some good odds. An African nation each way, or a lesser Euro team each way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeusbheld Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 hmmmm. i'm a long time ghana fan (since back in the day when they had pretty shirts instead of boring real madrid wannabe kits)... ancestral allegiance however may induce me to put a tenner on Slovakia before we watch a spain/holland final which, of course, holland will lose on pks.

Treborz Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Russia would be worth an each way punt if they get through their playoff (put it on now to get the best price).

Well Turkey can't qualify and neither can Sweden realistically as Portugal have to beat some no marks to finish 2nd in their group. Think Czechs are struggling too! In fact half of those teams won;t even ben in SA. All will be revealed after Wednesday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beej Posted October 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Interesting fact that I never knew... "Never has a European team won the World Cup outside of Europe.
