    A simple lol will suffice here. Arsenal are unfire. They were never going to struggle cause Newcastle have had 2 shots on target in their previous two games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    WBA must hate me or something.
    I back them 3 times this year and they go and lose yet again.
    To make things even worse i backed them with a draw no bet and they still let me down.
    Never again WBA and Liverpool will never be backed by me again.
    Had unders on sunderland and bolton which more or less covered my stake but still sickened

    Well done! I seen that going differently! My expecations of Newcastle are higher than they should!

    Celtic abandoned...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Pj!


    Was tempted to back Liverpool at evens but didn't. I still think they'll win but avoided gambling.
    Can't find much value elsewhere but have Pompey 1-0 at 55.0 hoping for a decent trading opportunity for a small outlay.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,959 ✭✭✭tinofapples


    Treble for tonight:

    Chelsea @ 2 - 9
    Rangers @ 1 - 2
    United @ 2 - 9

    All to win. Money doubler.

    I know i said i would never do it but i just backed liverpool v West Ham Under 1.5 @4-7 in betting in running.
    Can see this being a 1 nil away win.
    Would be the first money i made from Liverpool since october!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    Wow liverpool lose to a last minute penalty.
    Dont give a crap what anyone says at this stage but Benitez has to be questioned.
    Cant see him there at the start of next season (At this stage i hope he isnt tbh)
    Still collected on my bet so im not too disheartened


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,772 ✭✭✭jameshayes


    I'm a utd fan and I love to see liverpool lose, but it's actually embarrassing lately

    Football - at. bilbao evens have to win tonight they are 2-0 down from first leg so most attack and i feel bilbao havent performed to their potencial this season cause to are playing defensive fooball but tonight they have to attack and wit llorente,rivas,yeste,audriz,etxberria and lopez in attack they will surely score goals tonight maybe even win -1 at 11/4 but santander wont mind losing 1-0 as this will see them through so even money best bet Barcelona should beat a ppor villareal defence,yes they are good going forward wit nihat and rossi but wit barca having best home defensive record with only 5 goals conceded at camp nou this season puyol and the boys should keep them quiet and henry,messi and bojan will destroy that poor defence of villareal real madrid scored 3 against them the weekend which should have been 6 or 7 only for van nistelrooy had a stinker

    Darts- j.Wade is in my opinon the best player around at the moment he has great chance of winning premier league and tonight i can see upset taylor is on bad form of late and if he continues playing like that wade should win easy..tonight i cant see wade lose so i pick wade the pdc player of the year with draw no bet at 6/4
    j.Part should beat one dart manley who has been more like 5 dart manley of late with poor finishing so 4/6 part should win
    barney at 4/11 should win but tonight im gonna wait as mardle been the bottler he is might take lead and bottle it again so betting in running might give good price on barney at some stage
    lewis and t.Jenkins are to quality players when lewis is good he is on fire but when he's bad he is very bad so it all depends which lewis turns i maybe a draw but its a match ye wud need to watch and bet in running

    Took a bit of atletico and barca myself.
    Hopefully i have a few quid in the bank to do some betting in running on the darts!
