Argentina coach Diego Maradona banned

Argentina coach Diego Maradona was banned not only for two months but also he will pay 24,000 US dollars on Sunday. He was banned because of his foul-mouthed outburst at the end of the match against Uruguay for the World Cup 2010 qualifiers.

Despite the ban, the match against Uruguay was a decisive match for Argentina to secure a place in South Africa for the World Cup 2010.
We have also seen Argentina in friendly matches against Spain, who won by 2 wonderful goals by Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso, and 1 goal penalty by Messi.

There is much to come until the summer for the World Cup 2010

Ladbrokes and Betfair against the Dutch

The two giant gambling sites in UK, Ladbrokes and Betfair, were recently involved in legal issues against the Dutch government.

Betfair and Ladbrokes are trying to enter the local market, and there is always an issue on accepting wagers from its citizens. It is sayd that the correspondence ordered the banks to block payments to and from the English betting groups.

It is believed that issues and the legal statements might last more than a year for rulings to be made in both these cases.

2010 World Cup Qualifying Playoffs Preview

National teams have been on the road for two year not in South Africa. And the time has finally coming to an end and with a clear list of who will play in the world cup. Until now, 23 countries have been qualified to the World Cup 2010.
The World Cup 2010 qualifiers will be played today, November 14 2009 and on Wednesday on 18th of November 2009. We will give you a preview of these games and how you could bet on the games online.
Starting from the European Qualifiers

Ireland versus France
One of the countries that have always been in the World Cups is France. They were not so many times that they have gambled on their clear place in the World Cup. In case Raymond Demenech and his boys fail to make it to South Africa 2010 this summer. I think that there will be enormous changes in the team. On the other side of the coin, Ireland, with their Italian coach Giovanni Trapattoni have done incredible achievement so far but based on their previous games and results, the probability of France winning is higher than that of Ireland. But with “Les Bleus” anything can happen.

Another waited match is Portugal versus Bosnia & Herzegovina
With all the fuss with Ronaldo’s fitness between Portugal and Real Madrid, eventually it turns out that captain Ronaldo will not play in the qualifying games. So far, Portugal’s squad was not so brilliant in their games, and although they kicked out Hungary and Sweden on a close race to secure their spots, still they have much to prove. On the other hand, we have witnessed Bosnia & Herzegovina as an outstanding game play and an amazing team spirit to secure a spot.
On the Bosnian side, Dzeko, Ibisevic, Salihovic and Misimovic are all playing tonight well as on Portugal, we have Veloso, Moutinho, Nani, and the great Pepe. So the odds are on Portugal tonight to win. Well, you can try to go with your instincts on this one to bet on and to win the bonuses.

And then comes Greece versus Ukraine
Although Greece has won at EURO 2004 in Portugal, yet they have failed to qualify in the World Cup 2006, and another weak performance in EURO 2008. Ukraine on the other hand, have great potential of winning since they have been winning most of their matches.
The odds on Greece winning are low; I predict a close win for Ukraine.

And finally Russia versus Slovenia
Guus Hiddink, the wanted coach has always qualified for finals and has never left out his squad in such important competitions such as World cup. I think that although Slovenia will fight hard but Russians are the favorites to win this match and qualify to the World Cup 2010.

Premier League Summary of Week 12

Some UK football betting sites as FootBetting.CO.UK are sharing UK great reviews on weekly basis on how to bet on Football especially targeted for UK audience.

The site is trying to give an opinion on the betting odds and online sports betting to the punters that are interested in Premier League, La Liga, Champions League, and World Cup 2010 and the list goes on.

It is good to have such online sites that guide us through the last days of 2009 and takes us to 2010.

My latest shock this season in football is Liverpool’s shape. What is happening to Benitez? they have lost Alonso and for that they are losing their games. It is not the average Liverpool that we are seeing. On the other hand, Arsenal are sending a clear message that they are not only youngsters rather they are potential winners of Premier League and of Champions League.  They are in their best forms this year. As for Manchester United are going steady so far without their Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo. Well, the odds are that this year the blues are the winners and are on top of the list. Chelsea and Ancelotti are doing great but the question remains if it is because of the Italian Ancelotti or Didier Drogba.

We will also give your our humble opinion on football betting and some reviews on some online betting sites in UK.
