You can't deny that given their recent form backing Norwich made sense...

Only kidding, mate.
Aye, I thought Norwich were a good thing too going on recent form. Just wish I'd listened a bit more to my gut feeling, as I thought it was a bit dodgy considering Bury had just lost their manager. I should have gone with WBA instead, like I was going to... although that one's not over yet.
Ah well, there's always the weekend to make amends.
come on barca
Dion Dublin!
Come on Norwich! Give us two more!

Peterborough winning 7-2 as well, the bellends. Where were you on Saturday?
Charlton equaliser. Gameover
gaaaaay
Actually, I'm glad I ended up going with Norwich instead of WBA. I would have been fuming. There's nothing worse than a last minute goal fucking your bet up.
I've won about £25. Yay!
Anyone want to take me on in a betting challenge over the next few weeks. Start with £50, whoever finishes with the most wins. Could be a laff.
bring it
1 Man City v West Ham (Backing Man City @ 2.05)
2 Gretna v Rangers (Backing Rangers @ 1.26)
3 Inter v Reggina (Backing Inter @ 1.24)
4 Catania v AC Milan (Backing AC Milan @ 2.31)
5 Clyde v Dundee Utd (Backing Dundee Utd @ 1.74)
5-Folds
Selections Odds Stake Potential win
1,2,3,4 and 5 12.93 £9.85 £117.51
Rangers, Inter, AC Milan, Santander, Paris St-G, £9.85 @ 16.96 = £167
so I'll be down to £30 at 10pm tomorrow
City and West Ham has got ET, possibly even penalties, written all over it, I think.
West Hams ridiculous injury list and shit performance at Villa Park this season persuaded me to back Citeh.
I went for PSG purely on the strength of Valenciennes away form. Didn't realise Paris' home form's just as bad. They did win their last home game 3 - 0 though...
Have a look at what price Nice/AS Nancy draw, St Etienne, Auxerre and Marseille are at the weekend. They should all be very good odds, and one or two of them could add some good value to an accumulator, much like Valenciennes did.
Start thursday cos I get my loan then. Finish two weeks after which is Jan 31. All sports allowed.
Loser buys the winner unlimited beers next time I'm up your gaff.
And you've got to post what you're betting on before to make sure no-one's cheating.
Deal?
It was also their only home win all season...
OK. Those two I posted don't count then, we'll start this weekend.
Turned the corner, just like MilanIt was also their only home win all season...
A bit like Bury too it seemsTurned the corner, just like Milan
No you didn't. Robbo, Chimbonda, King, Dawson, Lennon, Jenas, Zokora, Malbranque, Berbatov and Keane started. Only person out was Bale. You are woefully rubbish.
We'll see THE ROSK. I think my money is still safe.
That Spurs will finish above Villa?
ASGHASfgASGYIOAGYOSGYILAGYILSA
Can't finish higher than TOP ONE mate
They'll invent a new number for us. Probably 1 +1 or something.
That's 2 mate. It's not new and it's not for you.
And it's fucking true Villa are the Man U new.
Villa are the new Bolton.
Newcastle V Stoke Newcastle to win @ 8/11
Gretna V Rangers Rangers to Win @ 2/9
Clyde V Dundee Utd Dundee Utd to Win @ 8/13
Espanyol V Athletic Bilbao Espanyol to win @ 6/10
Villarreal V Recreativo Huelva Villarreal to win @ 1/2
Catania V A C Milan A C Milan to Win @ 23/20
£1.25 wins £22
PSG 4 - 0 ValenciennesIt was also their only home win all season...
See what I mean about Valenciennes, though? It's weird how a team can play so well at home, and I mean really well, as I've watched them a few times, yet be so poor on their travels.
aye I'll have to start paying a bit more attention to the French leagues I think.
Ac Milan fucked both my acculumators over this evening, where the hell was Pato tonight??
Yeah, I had a look to see how you did. I couldn't find Inter's score, though. How did they do?
You were right to go with Man City, too. Although Elano is in my Dream Team, so I'm not too bothered
Never betting on the big teams again. Milan today, Barca yesterday, Arsenal
Inter play tomorrow.
If they win Milan have cost me £290 tonight
I know Milan's away form is much, much better than their home form, but they're still absolutely shite - no where near the kind of team they used to be.
Catania, however, have seemingly got a cracking home record. They've only conceded five goals in nine league games, and even the likes of Juventus needed a ninetieth minute penalty to nick a point at the weekend against them...
I know it's easy with hindsight, though...
It wasn't a great bet. I'd looked at Milan a few days ago so I knew their away record was good and I thought they'd kick on after that 5 - 2 mauling of Empoli. Must admit all the Pato love suckered me in a bit too.
It was about as sensible a bet as PSG Valenciennes. Just the way it goes really...
Gone for a few strange bets this week.
First off, a 7-team accumulator for a quid:
Then I've gone for 4 strikers to score first in their games - 50p on each, and 6 doubles at 50p each:
Then purely as an experiment, 50p on each scoreline in the EPL - I've foolishly gone with Lawrenson's predictions:
£10 overall at stake. I don't expect anything to come off.
What's your bets for the weekend Pablo? I'm unsure of mine at the mo, thinking of doing a couple of £20 4-folds involving Man Utd and Arsenal as my bankers. Probably along with MK Dons, WBA, Peterborough and Carlisle split up between them.
Marseille (v Valenciennes)
Lyon (at Lens)
Rochdale (v Bradford)
Mk DOns (at Wrexham)
Swansea (Port Vale)
£10 returns £139.59
Rangers, Arsenal, Chelsea, Juventus, Newcastle, Portsmouth £10 = £150ish
Nottm Forest, Gillingham, West Brom, Tottenham £10 = £120ish
L Orient, Stoke, Swansea, Hartlepool, QPR £10 = £145 ish
Betfair is fantastic in that all the odds seem to better. But it's fucking shit in that you can't just build your own accumulator, you have to do it from selected markets. If I'd been able to do that first lot on betfair I'd be looking at a much bigger return.
I might just stick £50 on a Man U, Arse, MK Dons treble. Returns £163.33.
MK Dons did well last weekend for you.
You can. Play around with it a bit and you'll see.
Not even Brian Little can sort Wrexham out though. Shambles.
To add a selection to your multiple bet, the selection must be included in a market which belongs to a multiples group. Multiples groups contain a range of markets, for example, a set of weekend Premiership games or a round of matches within a tennis tournament.I have
I really can't...
You've got to be really careful at the moment if you're having a bet, as there are obviously a lot of clubs signing new players - like Wrexham, for example, who have made their eighth signing today.
They wont gel straight away...
Auxerre
Barcelona
Inter Milan
Juventus
Marseille
£25 for £210. It's a free £25 bet I have, so I'm not too bothered if it doesn't come up. I think it's got a really good chance, though. All home teams too, which I like.

Blackpool
QPR
Stoke
Swansea
Oldham
Morecambe
Darlington

I honestly think it's a got a good chance of coming up. It's more than worth the £3 I've stuck on it...
I've got the same bet again but without United at something like 575/1.

I don't see how this can't come off.
MK Dons have done me out of 60 quid the fucking wankers. Second week in a row they've dicked me over.
Hartlepool for me. I hope Jeff Stelling dies.
Also damn the media for convincing me 'the Keegan effect' would negate the fact that Newcastle are fucking shite. Bollocks.
Newcastle will be the ones to fuck me over. Liverpool will win on Monday too to rub salt in the wounds.
However Newcastle are an absolute abomination of a team.
well played
Barca are the fifth wheel in my accumulator today, and so far it's gone well (with wins for Everton, Rangers, Ghana and Real Madrid) - just need Barca to produce the goods to net me £40.
Juve fucked me up today. No more bets til payday.
Put on £45.50 worth of bets on Friday, getting about £35/£40 back. West Brom and MK Dons were the ones who let me down, but had a £15 acc with Chelsea, Carlisle and Peterborough. Barnet/Peterborough was called off which explains the poor returns.
Lost my slip on Friday night too but that's all sorted now. Gotta go back in tomorrow.
How you get on 1PA?
Down to £10 then I take it?
I'll tell you exactly what I'm on when I collect it tomorrow. But I won't be betting again unless you take the lead. Unlimited beers remember.
Free £5-£25 matched bet at Totesport.
Not sure when the offer closes, MIGHT be tomorrow...
Todays betting tips from THE SUN:
Diamond: 4-7 Arsenal win nothing this season. Bet 365
Donut: 7-2 Newcastle beat Arsenal in the FA Cup match. Will Hill
Longshot: 8-1 Chris Coleman to get the Saints job. SKYBET
Payday
Portsmouth vs Plymouth - 4/11
Southampton vs Bury - 1/3
Arsenal vs Newcastle - 4/11
£41 = £101.65
Can't see any of them slipping up.
ahaha have you actually put 40 quid on that?
Never underestimate THE KEEGAN FACTOR
Bollocks. Newcastle are still shit, and Arsenal will be angry.
I haven't put it on yet, but I intend to. Southampton have just lost their manager, but Bury are crap. If Pompey don't beat Plymouth I'll jump off a cliff.
I've got Boro, Pompey, Leeds and Southampton. £25 pays £110 ish.
No it's not part of our competition I just had to deposit £25 to get a free bet. Which I used on;
Boro, Leeds, W Brom, Coventry, Chelsea and Pompey free £25 returns £336
Derby
Coventry
Liverpool
Portsmouth
Southampton
Oldham
West Brom
what are my chances?
OK. I can see Millwall getting a draw at Cov and Oldham have only won twice at home all season. So that one's a bit dodgy.
Also betting on Derby to beat anyone at all is a risk.
Will probably replace Oldham with Leeds then. Derby should theoretically be on a high as they didn't lose their last game. Mifsud will come through for me too.
Never betting on an Arsenal match or I'd put us down for sure too.
Yeah I'm basically betting on Mifsud too
Peterborough have plenty of goals in their team. I expect them to give West Brom a good game.
I'd expect West Brom to be too good. They won there 2 - 0 in the league cup earlier this season.
My final throw of the dice in our stupid little competition thingie.
Arsenal, Pompey, Saints, Cambridge UTD. £10 returns £35.
I put £3.44 on the above with Oldham replaced by Leeds, potential winnings of £60, and the remaining 56p on Youssef Safri to score first against Guinea at 16/1.
Hate having uneven amounts in my account.
We'll win.
You'd better.
Diamond: Chelsea to win FA and League Cup 11-2. BET365
Donut: Liverpool 0-0 Havant is 18-1. BET365
Longshot: Hodgson is the next Prem boss sacked 10-1. Skybet
I've got £42 left. I'm putting £41 on Pompey, Scum and Arsenal. That way if one of them lose I win the comp (£1 to £0
I'll be up to collect my "unlimited beers" sometime next month. Hopefully Pompey get an away draw at West Brom, Wolves, Coventry or Derby in the next round. All likely to get through.
A bit of a daft £5 on Boro, Bristol City, Chelsea, Portsmouth, PSV, Roma, Sampdoria and Sevilla. It returns a little over £140
Oldham losing.
Millwall just equalised
Derby 0 - 3 Preston
fucking CUNGYT
Come on, you bastards!A bit of a daft £5 on Boro (won), Bristol City (won), Chelsea (won), Portsmouth (won), PSV (won), Roma (winning), Sampdoria (won) and Sevilla. It returns a little over £140
Just need Roma and Sevilla.

Lutons 92nd minute equaliser has cost me £450.
Send me some money Jay
Fucking Leeds and Oldham cost me.
What about Watford?
Yeah them aswell. My other bet came off though. Thought it was for £70, turns out it was only for £36.
o well, better than nowt.
I'm going to be very bitter for a while I think. Fucking luton, 92nd minute, 460 quid. Jesus Christ.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!A bit of a daft £5 on Boro, Bristol City, Chelsea, Portsmouth, PSV, Roma, Sampdoria and Sevilla. It returns a little over £140
It's probably the luckiest I've ever been with a bet as well. PSV, who were 1/7, scored in the ninetieth minute to win 2-1, and Sevilla scored a ninetieth minute penalty to scrape a 2-1 win
I am so happy for you.
.
I've decided putting bigger money on 2 or 3 teams is a much better tactic. I'm having much more success this way. Won three times in consecutive weeks.
Won about 80 quid from a few accies on three/four teams this weekend. Definitely the way forward.
Aye, that's what I do most of the time now. The only reason I didn't this weekend is because I don't fully trust the FA Cup. Sods law that I bloody won, but I'm not complaining.
Racing Santander today - 6/4 - I've stuck £40 of my winnings on them. If they win, £200 for the weekend. If they lose, I'm still £100 up. Win/win
Why Santander?
They're at home to Real Zaragoza, and while they're quite a good team at their own ground, they're shocking on their travels. Zaragoza's away record reads won one, drew two, lost six, scored seven and conceded eighteen.
Santander, on the other hand, have a really good home record. Won six, drew two, lost one, scored eleven and conceded only four.
It's practically the same thing as when I tipped Valenciennes the other week - a team with good home form and bad away form meets a team with good home form and bad away form. You're obviously going to go with the home team in that situation. And because both teams have such similar records, you're going to get a good price for the home team.
£250 on Santander.
