£5 on a One 8-fold accumulator bet means you put £5 in total on the bet.
£5 on "'All combinations of 7-fold accumulator bets" means you are staking £5 on several different bets so your total stake will be a lot more (couple hundred quid I imagine).
Obviously the first bet you need all 8 results right to win anything, the other bet you can win if you get some wrong.

There's all different types of bets you can have. If you have all types of 7-fold then you need to get 7 out of 8.
You can have other types of accumaltors to include 6 and 5 games etc but it increased your stake bud.

That's the main thing you have to look out for with mixed accumulators mate because you're putting multiple stakes on.
When placing on line though most websites will tell you the stake for that particular bet so your ok.
Some of the mixture of accumlators can be about 30 or 40 different bets. So you may choose a quid as your stake but your bet is in fact 40 quid if that makes sense.
p.s. I pretty much agree with what you've picked by the way

Hey paul,although i aggree with your 8 selections,it's still too many teams to pick on a straight accumilator,believe me,my years of doing the fixed odds coupon,the best way to profit is to increase the stakes and have a treble or less.it's so tempting just adding that extra team down because of the 'surefire home win a@4/6',theres always 1 bastard to let you down.Ive got a nice treble for tomorrow and £3o pays around £127.brighton,torquay and ross county(3 homes)£97profit is better than getting 7/8 right and cursing the 1 to go down.good luck m8.

slimyouth, you sound exactly like me!!!
I started off doing footy coupons about 8 years ago and I used to bet on 8-10 games and never won anything. I gradually reduced the games and upped the stake. The most I ever got right was 6 results (only happened once!!).
I now do a treble every week and place a higher stake (not a lot but more than I used to bet) and I've won more frequently.
Like you say mate, as soon as you start putting down 5, 6, 7+ results which you think are all surefire results you'll get 1 that lets you down.

Whydelilah,agreed m8,i can count on one hand the times i've won picking 5 or more selections in over 15 years of doing the coupon,it all looks so easy in the morning,come quater to five you are tearing up your slip wishing you had'nt included someone like rangers,celtic,the shit to name but a few,only a bit of fun,keep stakes sensible and stick to doubles or trebles to try and show a little profit in the long run.

Spot on mate.
I've had quite a few treble wins return £80+. It's not loads but it's better than chasing £4,000 on some 8 shooter!!!
