Betting on Charlton

petetheaddickpetetheaddick
in General Charlton
Every week, I have a small forecast bet on the weekend's football, i never every include Charlton in my bet. Mainly because i lose most weeks and I do not want to tempt fate. I never bet on or against England either.

On the flip side my brother in law (not an Addick) will bet on his own side to lose, he's also bet against England.

I'm not a big gambler and would rather my side win than me benefiting a few quid.

Am I letting my heart rule my head!!

    Maybe we should all put money on us to get relegated at 3-1 and buy the club ourselves if admin is to be true

    I always leave Charlton well alone in my bets. Could do without them letting me down in more ways than one.

    I'm the same wont bet against us, have occasionally put us to lose 4 or 5-0 if I have a feeling were going to get battered, but I will never put the other team in a acc.
    I never bet for us much either again occasionally put the 2 centre backs to score the first goal, now that is a great feeling when that comes in, but will never put us in acc.

    I had Derby in an acca on Saturday. I back us quite a bit through heart instead of head though

    Never let your heart rule your head when there's money involved. Carry on steering well clear.

    I never include Charlton in predictions or bet for Charlton.

    I will bet against occasionally on the basis that I'm not the best tipster and if I lose I win because Charlton win!

    Happy to bet against Charlton. Takes some of the hurt off another defeat. Score on derby at 13/10 too good to turn down

    Charlton need a point to stay up at Blackpool, Blackpool are winning 2-1 all your other teams have won and you stand to win 50k. Charlton get a pen in the 94th min do you want them to score or miss? I think my head would explode. That's not just aimed at you JT anyone who would back against us. oh and I dont see anything wrong with it either just couldnt do it myself.

    I do it the other way round... no wonder I never have any money

    I do Charlton to be losing at half time and then to win the match. Always seem to be going my way at half time, however never seem to be winning as of late.

    When Charlton play away I'll always do some Accas involving every game in the England / Scotland Divisions (to make Soccer Saturday a bit more interesting).

    Will only ever put Charlton down to win (and only in one match) - Would never put money on a team to beat us

    2009 I won a lot of money betting against us, 2011 won a lot of money backing us!!!

    other than those two season where we were beyond awful and then simply brilliant I tend to stay away from us, we always seem to win when we shouldn't and lose/draw when we should win!!!

    Did this the other way for a few months.....had to stop once the losses were approaching three figures!

    My advice, listen to sonicstud!

    I used to not bet against us. However, with our downfall to League 1 I thought it would be a way to at least claim a tiny bit of positivity from many dour weeks.

    I also don't mind including Millwall or Palace now as a win for them can then benefit a little.

    The one time I had a bet on Charlton this season was us to beat Blackburn away.

    I had £20 on at roughly 4/1

    Cheers Mr. Church

    I had a fiver in one hand and a coupon in the other on Saturday and was about to put my x against 2-0 Derby but my mate talked me out of it as I shouldn't bet against my own team. Git!!!!!!
