View Full Version : Betting on WRC sjg 20 January 2003, 00:15 After seeing the odds on the Monte Carlo (shown on C4's shakedown programme), I fancy a flutter. Thing is Blue Square (who I think provided the odds) don't seem to take bets on it, tried William Hill, Eurobet and others I found in searches of this place but no sign either. Is anyone still betting on WRC and who do you use? ta, S APJ 20 January 2003, 02:00 Yeah - likewise - after seeing the odds on the C4 Shakedown, I fancied investing a pound or two. The odds were definately provided by bluesquare.com so Im surprised they're not taking bets. If anyone finds anywhere taking bets - please post! ChrisB 20 January 2003, 11:45 I bet on Rally GB 02 with Ladbrokes.com but no mention of the 2003 WRC yet. Edit to say - I didn't see the shakedown program - what did they say?

Channel: Channel 4 Date: Thursday 23 January Time: 4:30am to 5:00am Might want to vid this as well Autosport show... Channel: Channel 4 Date: Wednesday 22 January Time: 12:30am to 1:00am sjg 20 January 2003, 18:16 Got an email from bluesquare - apparently the WRC stuff will be up mid-week. Amanda-Jane 20 January 2003, 19:17 WRC should be up by Wednesday on Blue Square :D I find Blue Square are the best for motor sports as I have found out in the past :D As I missed the shakedown and the odds are not up yet, what team/driver are they putting their money on? I personally think that Peugot will not do as well this year and Subaru could be in with a chance. I fancy (literally) Petter Solberg to do well :D AJ ChrisB 20 January 2003, 20:43 I was going to have a punt on Solberg as well AJ. He came good for on GB :D Amanda-Jane 20 January 2003, 20:50 I know what you mean Chris but for the title I am just not quite convinced he could do it this year, as much as I want him too ;) I did rather well with the F1 last year and hope to do the same with the WRC this year! Gone off F1 cos it's boring and prefer IRL to CART too :eek: AJ Amanda-Jane 21 January 2003, 11:22 Blue Sq is up now :D http://www.bluesq.com/bet?action=go_events&type_id=1321 AJ Amanda-Jane 21 January 2003, 19:25 Well, who's stuck on a bet then? I have! Just wee ones and nothing like last year, don't want to risk that amount of money again! :D Solberg to win :D and Colin each way :eek: AJ rallycol 22 January 2003, 01:58 Michael Owen's tip is £50 grand each way on Gronholm! ChrisB 22 January 2003, 17:23 Ladbrokes is up now. Solberg is only 6/1 for Monte. I guess they caught on after giving him 16/1 for Rally GB :rolleyes: 6/1 for the title as well! Tommi might be a better shot at 14/1. Decisions, decisions! I might give it a miss this time. I usually only stick £2 on. ChrisB 22 January 2003, 17:31 £2 each way on Colin for Monte. £3 each way on Tommi for the Title. Amanda-Jane 22 January 2003, 17:42 £4 each way on Colin for the Monte £6 each way on Petter for the Monte (I thought I hit to win but just checked :() £20 on Petter for the title £10 on Tommi for the title Surely I will get something out of it!! AJ SilverSmith 22 January 2003, 21:15 Anyone know what the snow situation is on the Monte ? Might influence my betting ;) sjg 22 January 2003, 22:34 £5 on Colin to win. Couldn't resist 11/1 - just hope he's as quick in the Xsara as he reckons! :) T Gardemeister 23 January 2003, 14:42 ;) ChrisB 28 January 2003, 22:58 £2 each way on Colin gives me a £2 profit :D Doesn't cover the £3 each way on Petter though :rolleyes: john_s 28 January 2003, 23:22 I had £2 each way on colin too. Net gain = £0 though... had put £2 each way on Marko Martin too. Was sat there cursing Carlos Sainz like you wouldn't believe on the last couple of stages! John GM 28 January 2003, 23:34 £10 on Loeb equals £40 profit (and I'm glad no-one told Corals about Panizzi's recce penalty - they still had him as favourite on Thursday night) :D:D Amanda-Jane 29 January 2003, 01:18 I didn't too very well but a friend of mine stuck £20 on a Citreon 1,2,3 at 15-1. Jammy so and so! AJ skankyhoe 17 February 2003, 17:53 http://www.bluesq.com/bet?action=go_events&type_id=1321 i get "No selections currently available to bet on", whereabouts is the WRC related stuff on that site? thanks. Amanda-Jane 18 February 2003, 13:48 That link won['t work now as it only related to the Monte Carlo WRC. They are only taking bets on the F1 Championship at the moment on Blue Square. They usually have the WRC stuff up just before the rally. Hope this helps, AJ ChrisB 19 February 2003, 09:38 Ladbrokes are similar, the WRC bets are pulled until just before a weekend event. skankyhoe 19 February 2003, 14:50 oh i see, thanks. i guess noone is taking bets on whos gonna be world champion then. ChrisB 19 February 2003, 16:15 They do... I have money on that with Ladbrokes. Check back during the next rally weekend and you should fine some options. skankyhoe 23 February 2003, 17:54 excellent, thanks. |
