Tredder
Thomas L'Heureux Another wedge in the back pocket after last night, much to Mags' 'retrospective' disgust.

£25 on Chelsea and Reading returned £42.86, whilst £25 on Wolves and Preston successfully returned £67.86.

I had the odd £5.84 left in my account, so went for an outsider of Birmingham and Chesterfield which underlined my opinion to leave the FA Cup alone, as the latter only drew with Droylsden in what was a very controversial game.


Yep, i had a sizeable lump on Sheff Utd, Wolves and Reading, this is far easier than better before the games.


Is that said with tongue in cheek?

Reading and Wolves came home last night to make me my money back, now just need Man Utd complete my treble of them, Chelsea and Reading to make double.

Aftertiming is rubbish and TLH is the master of it.

If you had to stick your selections on here beforehand then I bet your returns would diminish immediately.

For what reason, other than the one I've already specified (which admittedly is a fairly childish trait)?

Is it because you think I'm telling porkies?

For me, Rochdale are a stand out at 4/5 but it's putting 2 with it that is the problem.

Finished the weekend down for the first time in a while unfortunately.

£25 on Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, and Leverkusen failed, as the latter conceded an injury time equaliser at home to Cottbus.

However, a £25 double on Wolves and Reading came through to leave me about £4 up for the Saturday.

On Sunday, put on a £25 double of Chelsea and Anderlecht, but the the former's home form continued to slide despite the Belgium outfit running out 3-0 winners away from home.

Didnt have time to get on anything in the end but scribbled down on Friday on a post-it how I fancied the following, games at Liverpool and Plymouth to be draws, and then aways for MK Dons, Leicester, Stockport and Gillingham. Gillingham didnt come through in the end. :x

I've never claimed to be otherwise. I'm just sensible, and have gained experience through gambling.

Once upon a time I chased the '£1000 from a tenner' long-shots but got nowhere.

Try experimenting with combinations of Wolves, Millwall, Darlington, and Bradford?

I haven't looked at any odds yet, but I like the look of the above teams at a first glance. Darlington are probably the weakest there in terms of probability.

I'm wagering Droylsden v Chesterfield will have goals a plenty. Get on over 2.5 goals kids. It will pay for your drinks over Christmas. odds of 1.94 at the magic sign.
