THE BETTING THREAD

[TFF]

Tonight I'm having a little three-way fun.

Wolves to draw at Palace, a Reading win at Wednesday and Swansea to win at Derby.

A 75p trixie returns £36.27 at BlueSquare.

[bobbybottler]

Reading are a lay tonight, I'm sorry to say.

[Thomas L'Heureux]

I won £59.23 tonight, as £50 on Chelsea and Arsenal returned £126.92 in total. A £17.69 outside double of Reading and +2.5 goals in the 'Palace v Wolves game failed though, as I somehow picked one of only three Championship games to have less than three goals in it!

How do your bets go when you post them up here before kick off?

Not too badly actually. Why don't you go back and see for yourself?

[T.R.O.L.I.]

Reading are a lay tonight, I'm sorry to say.

Really?

[bobbybottler]

Reading are a lay tonight, I'm sorry to say.

Really?

Certainly, given our form and Sheff Weds home form, and I felt that the lay price offered value.

I don't regret placing that one. Other than the fact it didn't come in of course.

[RG30]

Stoke to beat Bolton @ 6/4

[Thomas L'Heureux]

Not certain of this one coming off, but the return is too good to turn down considering Man City are without Bellamy and Robinho, and 'Villa are deadly away from home.

After yesterday's decent profit, I've put £35.71 on an away double of Aston Villa and Man United for a total return of £128.95

EDIT:

Oh well, 'Villa 2-0 down now which has sent that one down the pan. I almost get the feeling they don't want the fourth Champions League spot.

Great shout on Stoke, RG.

After the Daggers debacle, i'd like to officially gift Grimsby 3 points as i am having a punt on Lincoln at 8/5, seems to big against a team in termoil.

[cmonurz]

Sheff Utd 15/8 (great price imho)
Oldham Evens
Man Utd 5/6

Treble pays 9.34/1.

Anyway I got Brum Cardiff and Bradford yesterday at 4.2/1, now waiting on Everton-Middlesborough to see how my other one does

[Thomas L'Heureux]

Decent profit this weekend, much to my surprise. Late on Friday I placed two £50 trebles, one consisting of Chelsea, Arsenal, and Wolfsburg, and the other being Leicester, Darlington, and Celtic.

I was out on the Saturday, and as I'd come in late on the Friday I quickly placed the above before going to bed. My memory somewhat failed me, and I got mixed up, thinking that I'd put Celtic in one and Darlington in the other (who both lost, thus losing both trebles as per my memory). As a result of my suspected losses, whilst out I got on the phone and placed a Man United and Villareal double to try and get back the money I'd 'lost', placing £46.92 on it as this was what I thought I had remaining in my account. It came through for a total of £148.58, so this morning I got on the phone again and put £24 on Arsenal and Zurich to win, which also came through for a total return of £54.28 on that one.

As a result of the above, I assumed I was only about £30-odd up, but I've just checked my online balance and was glad to see my memory had played tricks on me, and I'm actually over £200 up for the weekend!

[RG30]

My £20 double of Reading and Brighton was gash but least I'm still in with a shout for my ante-post FA Cup bet

£2.50 E/W Everton to win the FA Cup at 20's

[T.R.O.L.I.]

What are the E/W criteria? Final or semi-finals?

[RG30]

Final

[Thomas L'Heureux]

Gone for a Reading and Brentford double tonight. No doubt the Royals will turn around and bite me on the arse, but oh well...

[Readingfanman]

Thinking a Bayern Munich and Exeter double at 3.60.

[TFF]

Birmingham, Derby, Ipswich, Reading. 50p Lucky 15 for £89.95
