Scoop6 and other dodgy bets

The Editor made it 4 coupons out of 6 last night - and won a grand total of £14!
Still, as the missus is fond of saying, look after the pennies .....
I'd stuck on five four-folds and one five-fold on Bristol Rovers, Stockport, Lincoln, Rochdale and Aberdeen.
First three all came up, Rochdale game was abandoned and only Aberdeen got beat (well, hammered as it happens)

I'm re-investing four quid on tonight's friendly internationals. England should win comfortably and I'm hoping either Ireland (7/2) or Wales (15/8) come up with a wee home shock by beating Brazil or Norway respectively.
Brazil are without most of their big names (No Kaka or Ronaldinho at least), the game is sold out and the crowd should be up for it so I can see a wee 1-0 win with a McGeady assist and a Keane goal. In the 67th minute. Only joking about the last bit.
Wales are due a win at home.

Three doubles and a trouble.

That should of course have read doubles and a treble, not trouble.
A Freudian slip perhaps?

I'd say so...and I'll bet your misses has to look after the pennies the luck you're having with betting.....

It's because of all my near-misses that the missus has to look after the pennies.
I'm on a roll I've have you know. Four out of six winners can't be bad.

Wales and England did the business. Ireland lost narrowly to Brazil.
I stuck £4 on .... and got £4.21 back.
As I say, look after the pennies ..
