    I rarely do,the win is always far more important,but one of my finest bets period was when i put £400 to win the league at 7/2 for the 97/98 season:36:

    That was a vintage betting year for me,but that is another story,but this one was pure MAGIC!:ynwacelti

    I was actually thinking about this before with your loudest cheers thread. I had already said I was going to Benfica away but was a wee bit financially * at the time but genuinely thought we were been underestimated against Barca so had a few quid on us at 12-1 and that paid for the trip.

    Put Celtic on most accumulators.

    Never, ever, ever, ever bet against us though. Under any circumstance.

    I rarely bet on us as the odds aren’t great value.

    If I do put us on an accumulator it’s usually a -1 or -2 handicap.

    Put them on again, you’ll realise it was all a coincidence.

    Smartest bet I’ve had on Celtic was to win from behind at 8/1 in the 3-2 game last season

    Had KT to score v city. Ladbrokes * wouldn't pay out. Just 2 euro at 20/1

    Put us on to draw a couple of times away from home in europe. Only one i remember winning was salzburg 2-2. Closest ive come to betting against us.

    Put us no on most of my btts bets.

    Last memorable win was the correct score on the 3-2 win last year.

    Same

    I know a current bun who bets on us when we play them , says it softens the blow when we win , mental.

    I often take us -2 in home games or to win both halves.

    Never bet on us. My luck with betting is shocking and I'm just superstitious enough to believe if I bet on us I will jinx us.

    Used to bet on us, but haven’t for many a year. Funny you should say that as got a mate who supports Ipswich and he always bets against them as he says if they win great, if they lose it wins him some money so softens the blow. Needless to say that at the minute he’s doing alright at betting against them :56:

    Have never ever bet against us and very rarely put bets on us. If I do, it's always on a mental correct score in our favour, either in Europe or against Sevco.

    I had us to win that game against Salzburg at 6/1 in an accumulator, let me down for around €1200 on a €1 bet.

    E2E5C83D-D0D8-4B9C-9558-424043CD3CD4.png One of my favourite bets was a scorecast, think it was Ronny’s second season and I had €5 on Mackay Steven to score first and for us to beat ICT 3-0 at home at 25/1.

    Griffiths scored with literally the last kick of the game to make it 3-0.

    Normally put Celtic on a coupon as its usually a safe bet.

    Saying that though I'd still back us if we were playing Real Madrid as I could never bet against Celtic.
