Going to do my level best to avoid t'interweb from now until after the match on Friday so...

Happy Christmas RFC - a win for the Royals with Ipswich and Sheff U to beat Brum and Wolves respectively.

£1.50 trixie, £6 for £65.06

Skin 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.


Finished 2-1 8)


Cheers!

A TLH style post here, but I backed Blackburn 2-1 (as well as City 2-1), both at 12.5.

Currently 2-1 Blackburn in injury time...

LOL :lol:

Unbelievable. Cmonurz's £125 win last seen being pissed on by Blackburn's defence.

Got a nice profit on Reading-Soton being a draw.

Haha, I find this all quite funny.

Walked away with £25 profit yesterday, as I successfully backed Liverpool and MK Dons, £25 for £75.

However, I also put £25 on Chelsea and Leicester, meaning Clint Dempsey cost me more profit with his last minute equaliser.

Add this to my marginal £10 profit from Boxing Day and I've had a fairly quiet Christmas period.

Point of this thread was to show your betting skill pre match and then let the banter or "well done's" follow which in my case early doors was all the bloody time i.e. piss take.

Anyone can post after the match and say they had this that and the other. Pointless.

Thread is slowly dying.

I wouldn't say it is pointless, posting your selections before hand is just as pointless in that sense to be honest. At the end of the day this is a discussion forum, and whatever posted on here can be taken for what it's worth.

It is the bookmakers who pay-out so I don't see what the real problem is. I accept your point about the banter, but at the same time, I've revealed my bets that haven't come through as well as those that have, so rub salt in the wounds if that will make you feel better.

As I've said before, I'll attach a screenshot of my betting histories if that will make anyone satisfied. At the end of the day though, I'm making money my way and it wouldn't make an ounce of difference if I told you lot about it or not.

Yeah, I know they're a mugs game, I just throw a few quid in it whilst I'm waiting for friends to finish their betting. Not that I should need to justify my gambling habbits with you!

Anyway, I won, so ner.
