With our away record Burnley at 7/5 looks very tempting.

Some of the best value I have spotted this season, Newcastle are 2.04 to beat West Brom, with half hour to kick-off. I was expecting around 1.85, big bet for me, Newcastle improving and West Brom imho in a bit of a false position, having played Fulham, Middlesbrough and Bolton already, nevermind their 3-0 loss at home to Hull in their last match.

I don't normally like to flag bets up as being particularly good or bad, but Newcastle at evens is a gem of a bet, imho.

Watch it lose now. :lol:

Also have an overs acca, for the games at Burnley, Wolves, Orient, Carlisle and Rotherham, paying 16/1.

Random few for me:

Basically I need the Toon to win and lots of corners, I need Bristol City to win or draw, Shrew to win and overs in that match, overs in our match and also in the stockport v tranmere match, o'h and daggers to win somewhere along the line...

That post alone made me losing the bet worthwhile!!!

Predictable, dull and totally tedious.

I could lower myself to your level, Paul, but instead I will just quote a well known phrase.

"Try always to be humble in victory and gracious in defeat".

You might try it some time.

Nice one (financially anyway). Perfect example of how to bet with your head and not with your heart.

Looking good so far, except I can't see how Real Madrid are getting on, unless you meant Betis or Murcia (who are both winning anyway).

Cup vs Real Union tomorrow (I think). Bilbao vs. Recreativo

Ah OK. I avoid Coppa del Rey as teams frequently field uber-weakened teams e.g. Villareal this evening. Good luck with the remaining matches anyway. Bilbao won 2-0 BTW.

Yeah tis just Real Madrid I need now, I thought Bilbao played tomorrow but nope...

I was more worried about the Italian games tbh, both were 2-1 for a good time...
