championship football is not good to bet on.

Yeh it was pretty stupid in hindsight - got greedy!!

:p Hahahahaha.....

I'd had a couple of bourbons and was getting the scores off one of the lives score sites.

I got a bit excited, when Draw/Liverpool came off. Which was a good result for me.

But the multi went to ********e thanks to a dumbass performance by Newcastle against West Brom, Villa's woeful game against Palace and Sunderland's draw with Gillingham. :(

You probably know this but the Livescore site is very frustrating in that once 90 minutes is reached it just stays there and gives no indication of time added on or how long into that time has been played.

As you found out, it can be a very nerve-racking time indeed!

I think you'll find that the 5' minute mark on livescore games is usually about the time that the game actually starts. I know this because on foxsports it says 85' whe livescores has 90.

I hope that makes sense.

Yeah I noticed that if a game says it starts at 15.00 and there is more than one game on that day they all start at the same time. Noticed it after watching a game on fox and keeping score on other games.

I guess it is only the internet. ;)

Why don't you guys try out the bbc website. It has pages for every game that update every two minutes or so with text commentary - much better than watching a scoreline update.

Mate whats the web address, It's got to better than what I am using.

Got it!!

Thanks for the pointer!

is there anywhere to get radio commentary for English games? I tried getting some from the Liverpool match last night but you have to subscribe.

I listen to live Serie A Italian commentary (free) but it's not much good if you can't speak Italian.

I heard from a mate who doesn't have net access at home that he listens to matches on the radio. I'll try to find out what station. BBC or something I guess. I'll let you know.
