    Good accum - But, you main problem is Spurs, Derby have been improving over the last few games and spurs are in decline, Spurs are also missing woodgate and possibly Bent.. (Bale & Ekotto are also out) AND they are playing away!


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


    Man U are deffo going to beat MC but the problem is they are a low scoring team in the first half of most games this season - MC have a poor away form but can hold the fort for 45mins pretty handy against a team missing Rooney & playmaker Evra..

    I think Fulham are well overdue a win away from home and I dont rate Boro at all

    Fulham have actually yet to win an away game this season - They lost their last game against a very strong A.Villa side, and their previous game was noted as the worst game of football this season - against bolton.

    Boro have a poor home record but are beginning to improve

    Fulham are stuggling in my opinion and odds of 1.9 are almost free money

    If thats what you think don't be wasting your time with accumulators.

    I'm dry - no more betting for me... i've given up until I learn that it's real money i'm betting with, not just numbers on a screen...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭johnnysmurfman


    4th place Nottingham Forest take on 20th place Millwall at the City Ground. Recently signed Will Hoskins will probably start up front and Forest's two best players in my opinion (midfielders Kris Commons and Lewis McGugan) are back in the side after suspension and injury. The 4/6 with Paddy Power just looks like a price whch is too big to turn down. I'll be having a bet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,663 ✭✭✭JoeyJJ


    After a disaster last week here are some picks not too confident this week either

    Derby v Tottenham - Away
    Bristol City v Sheff Wed - Home
    Crewe v Swansea - Away
    Rangers v Falkirk - Home

    close on 9/2

    Add Man Utd and Celtic for 10.5/1


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 257 ✭✭63587614


    I like that Not Forrest 4/6. Not a bad treble Chelsea 4/5, Not Forrest 4/6, Villa 5/6.

    Fair play.

    If you do get back at it, leave out those multiples. Use the 'out of 100' thinking before you bet (your singles!!), ie. if the Chelsea match and the pool match at the weekend was played 100 times (same teams, same conditions, same everything), how many times to you think Chelsea would win (more than 50 for me, hence ive Chelsea backed at 2.06.


    That along with discipline and your laughing.
