Weekend of the 29th Aug Footy Bets

Whats everyone doing?

€20 treble
Arsenal to beat Charlton in the Vally 1/2
Lincon to beat Bury at home 1/2
Pompy to beat the Spurs in whiteheart lane 5/2

Arsenal and Lincoln should easily dispose of the opposition.

I think Pompy are a great price at 5/2. Pompy should be well rested with no midweek action, Spurs have a few injurys and haven't won in the EP in 4 games.

What do ya reckon?

Chucky the tree

I am going for Barca, Real and milan all to win. Cant remember the odds though. Havent looked into many other matches.

Tempted to go for unders in the spurs match, i think both sides can easily win. However i cant see there being alot of goals. possibly 1-1.

Goodluck with your bets.

Is it still August?

Pighead

Pighead would recommend Peterhead at 4/9 to be added into this weeks coupons. Poor old Forfar have a bit of an injury crisis. They tried to get the game called off but weren't successful. This from the BBC.

Injury-hit Forfar told to play on.

George Shaw had to list himself as a trialist on Saturday

Forfar Athletic have had their request to postpone Saturday's Second Division game against Peterhead rejected despite having just eight fit players.

Forfar say manager George Shaw, who has a squad of 19, had been hit by an unprecedented injury crisis.


"The club have put in the application to have the game called off," club physio Brian McNeill had said.

"The club doctor has provided the appropriate certification required by the SFA to make their decision."
Forfar say they were only able to name three "useable outfield substitute players" for Saturday's 3-1 home defeat by Morton.

One of those was Shaw, who was listed as a trialist, and the eight who are fit include two goalkeepers.
"Alan Rattray and Fraser Coyle were both forced to end their game prematurely with recurrences of injuries, the former's injury requiring an un-fit Paul Tosh to play 45 minutes as a make shift centre half," said the club website. In all, Forfar have nine players definitely out through injury and two others doubtful for the trip to Peterhead this weekend.

Bugger. Munich lose tobottom club Wolfsburg thus destroying Pigheads bet. I went against all my instincts in backing an away team.

Peterhead destroyed an understrength Forfar 8-0. As is the way of these things you can be guaranteed the other 2 remaining bets in the accumulator will win now.
