Anyone know where we can get an updated version of that percentages table that Tighty posted the other day?

Croatia 7/1 is surely a massive overcorrection to beating Spain (when Spain missed a penalty)

[Ledders]

It's entirely due to the draw. Spain have nearly doubled in price

Kick on wAles. I might escape on the month with a Wales win and bale top scorer!! What a chance they have.

As David said yesterday, all of the best creative players in the PL are not English. Our strikers in this tournament are not bring supplied by the quality of player they are at club level eg Silva, De bruyne, ozil, fabregas, mahrez,eriksen etcetc

That is true now but even when there were guys like Beckham, Scholes, Gerrard,Lampard, Gazza etc it seems to my mind that there were still issues scoring goals??

I see no reason why England with the players they have should be playing 2 holding midfielders, perhaps in games against better teams that's a tactic to use but that Russian side were bad and Slovakia not much beter.  Wales are no better than average and despite lots of posession the results have been unconvincing.  

Are there creative players in England who could have gone to these champs who never made the squad?

Puts NI through aswell, well deserved imo, well their keeper deserved it

I stated on here a few weeks ago I thought he was a cracking keeper and worthy of a move to the EPL, a disaster by Celtic letting him leave like the same way we let Given. Friedel, Marshall etc pretty much walk out the door.

no I don't think there are. Number of eligible English players in the top sides at very low levels as a whole too

Did you do this as a double, or two separate bets? I like the methodology if they let you do it as a double.

Are we betting Wales because we really think they can win it or just the 33/1 is too big? England are poor according to everyone yet we outplayed them ?

Who is saying to bet Wales at 33/1?
