Well in!

I had over 3.5 cards, and over 2.5 goals. Sounds like boasting/bullshit, but it's not both were about a quid fifty, so in total I've won about 5.50 from it, but I'll take it ;)


I had two bets of a fiver each,

Mitrovic anytime score and gets booked @ 16-1

Plus 2.5 goals, BTTS and plus 9.5 corners @ 15-2

:drinkers:
Nice one, Jonn-o :partyman:

If they cared so much then why aren't they playing for Albania?

Haha Xhaka's brother does play for them probably because he's not very good?

Albania qualified for the Euro’s though didn’t they? You need to grow up Doug. If everyone gave up their nationality to gain say German citizenship it would be a very sorry world wouldn’t it?

Xhaka said he used the gesture to show remembrance to his parents who suffered at the hands of the Serbs. The Serbian coach didn’t express any dissatisfaction with what they did. It didn’t cause any crowd trouble.

It really depends on how it was interpreted and UEFA:FIFA have hoisted themselves up by their own petard by allowing the Home Nations to wear poppies embroidered onto their kits a couple of years back so political symbols are allowed.
