With the Premier League taking an enforced break this week, Suggest-A-Bet turns its attentions to international football and the World Cup Qualifiers.
This is your chance to tell us what you would like to bet on, with one entry being priced up for all our customers to bet on and receiving a free €50/£50 bet for your troubles.
So it’s a blank canvas, but if you’re looking for some inspiration, whilst there’s no game for Ireland this weekend, Scotland host Norway, Wales play Liechtenstein, Northern Ireland go to Slovenia and England are playing Borat’s friends from Kazakhstan. Is Nice!
Darren Fletcher has been named Scotland captain, Spurs still can’t win a game and West Ham look to be in financial paralysis. Meanwhile Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard are still insisting they can play together (but don’t go down that road, we closed the book on that particular question many moons ago).
Of course, if the football doesn’t grab you from the weekend sports action there’s also the Japanese Grand Prix to consider as well.
Send your suggestions by reply below, the deadline is Thursday afternoon with the winner revealed after that.
Good luck!

This might be one of the strangest betting markets ever suggested but the media are making a ‘Big Song and Dance’ over the top two on the list . So I thought that by adding a singer and dancer it might produce value odds
Will the last one to survive before being dumped be:-
Joe Kinnear ( Newcastle Temporary Manager)
Juande Ramos ( Spurs Manager)
Austin Drage ( X Factor)
John Sergeant (Strictly Come Dancing)
