I’ve just realised that I forgot to say what I was betting for in the Villarreal match- it’s a Villarreal win, I’ve gone back and corrected it now. It’s currently 0-0, if they don’t win it’s looks like I’m going to be left with £0, because Southampton have well and truly fucked me over.

So the first time I back against Real, they turn up. Then Senegal inexplicably forget how to play soccerball.
