Midweek bets

therecklessone

Not taking a chance on any of the premiership matches midweek, too many difficult games to call (though if I had to, I'd got for Bolton to beat Newcastle and Villa to beat Pompey)

Likewise with the CL, ManYoo and the Pool odds aren't good enough to risk.

So I've gone for:

Ipswich, Reading and Sheff Utd all to win in the Carling Cup, @ just over 17-10 with PP.

Villa to beat pompey and boro to beat brum

evilhomer

Spurs to beat Blackburn 2-0
Chelsea to beat West Brom 1-0
Villa Pompey 1-1
Boro Brum Draw 0-0

Lemlin

Portsmouth are terrible, I'd fancy Villa to beat them. Man City should beat Sunderland too.

Likewise, Birmingham-Boro seems to be a model draw.

Chelsea and Wolves would appear to be bankers. Also, anyone looking to boost their online account for the evening kick offs should get on Lokomotiv Moscow, kicking off at 4pm at home to Rapid Wien. Or if Lokomotiv don't look like that much of a gimme, then lay Rapid. That's what I've done, hopefully boost the old war chest a little for the late games.

I'm also on Lokomotiv Bateman, they were only 1/2 to win outright so I backed them at 2.05/1 with Vienna getting a 1 goal headstart, so if they only win by 1 goal I still get my money back. From reading the away leg report they seemed to dominate and only conceded from the penalty spot after having a man sent off. Also if you back on this on the Asian handicap on Betfair there is only a 1% commission charge.

thats a pretty class bet, wouldn't be too surprised to see all of those teams except Fulham win! can you do that terble horizontal vertical diagonal thing at any bookies?

Bateman

Fulham? :eek:

I wouldn't be so sure about Villarreal. Everton surprised me against Bolton, and Villarreal will be assuming they're already through. It looks a good bet though.

evilhomer

Fulham would seem to be the only dodgy element to that bet. Everton could beat Villereal, but I doubt it. whats the odds with Fulham in it?

Course you can. Its just 8 trebles without writing them all out seperately.

Villarreal are a cert imo.

My bet on today's games:
Brighton - 11/10
Panathinaikos - 4/9
Lens 4/11
Partizan - 1/3
Motherwell - 4/11
Sheff Utd - 1/3
Falkirk - 1/3
Reading 4/9

All to win. :eek: Those are PP odds but €10 returns €157 with Ladbrokes. Don't usually do such a big acc. but I'll make an acception today.

My midweek bet is a €5 accumulator on aston villa, spurs, arsenal, and man city all to win
return a fantabulous 106.50

Gotta have a bit of hope!! The two trebles with fulham are worth about 290 to the whole bet, otherwise its not really worth the risk, but hey thats why they call it gambling.

It technically called a union jack, but some idiot in a bookies starts tellin me i cant write them on a union jack docket, so i just write them out like that.
