    Enjoy the match county, should be a cracker. Anyway its that time of the week again when Pigheads head goes all dizzy from the sheer amount of games on the bloody coupon! Hopefully I've picked the right ones.

    Kilkenny City V Shamrock Rovers @4/11: Well a fairly obvious one to start with really. Kilkenny have been terrible in the second half of the season. Their last 19 games depressingly read W0 D2 L17. Their manager was given the boot last week and with Rovers needing to win to keep pace with Dundalk and Galway this looks like an almost certain away win.For the more adventurous among you Rovers are available at Evens for HT-FT.

    Charlton V Watford @1/1: Yep thats right I'm betting on the bottom team in the premiership. In fairness to Charlton I reckon its something of a false position. In their last 7 games they've played Man Utd, Chelsea Arsenal, Bolton, Villa, Portsmouth and Fulham. The first 6 mentioned occupy the 1st 6 places in the table and against Fulham they were rathe runlucky the other night. Bent looked to be back to his best as well which is a major plus. Watford are obviously no mugs but they were well beaten 3-0 by Arsenal last week and haven't won at all this season. I reckon Charlton can leapfrog them tomorrow.

    St Johnstone V Queen Of The South @1/3: Poor old Queen of the South are having an awful time of it. 2 measly points all season and beaten in 4 of their last 5 league games tells its own story. St Johnstone on the other hand lie joint top of the division with Gretna and ought to see off the visitors challenge.(St Johnstone have only dropped 2 points at home all season, a draw against Gretna last week)

    Cork City V Sligo @8/15: The wheels are starting to come off for Sligo after a great 1st half to the season. A fortunate victory against Pats has been their only victory in the past 6 games. They drew twice with non league killester drew with bottom club Waterford and got hammered 4-0 last week to Derry. Most important of all though they were hammered 3-0 by Cork when playing at home a month ago. Cork still have a slight chance to lift the title and won't give up until its mathematically impossible. They lost last wek to Bray but their form before that was decent with 3 wins and two draws.

    Ajaccio V Istres @4/5: Ajaccio are no world beaters but they're pretty solid at home having lost just once all season. Istres are relegation material and have are without a win in their last 4 games. Last week they played at home against 10 man Le Havre for an hour and failed to score. This is the game most likely to end in a draw but I reckon Ajaccio can do it.

    Weekend Recommendedations:
    40 Points Shamrock Rovers, Charlton, Cork, St Johnstone @4.5/1
    20 Points Shamrock Rovers, Charlton, Cork, St Johnstone, Ajaccio @ 9.5/1
    10 Points Cork HT-FT @11/8, Charlton(1/1), Grays Athletic(5/4), Shelbourne(4/6) @16/1


    Sorry bout lack of info about Grays but I'm just finishing "work". Basically their playing St Albans and its a risky one as they've been on a bad run but I have a feeling they might snatch an away win tomorrow.Risky proposition though which is why they're not in my main bet.

    Anyway Good Luck To All. Enjoy your weekends.

    All eggs in the Charlton basket pighead? Risky stuff.

    Personally I'd be more inclined to side with Watford or even the draw.

    I've gone for a hail mary bet week for a change:

    5 Fold-
    Morton v Stranrear
    Luton v Leeds
    Manure v Liverpool
    Leicester v Palace - Draw
    Norwich v Cardiff
    €10 @ 36.2/1

    Treble-
    Wigan v Man City
    Forfar v Raith Rovers
    Montrose v Stenhousemuir
    €10 @ 14/1

    High Odds Double :confused: -
    Charlton v Watford
    Chelsea v Portsmouth
    €10 @ 41/1

    Good luck too everyone!

    Great stuff Tubbertown. Bet ya had a good night Saturday night after seeing those results come in.

    Pigheads bets all lost because of Charltons failure to beat Watford. As Erin said it was a bit silly to have them in all 3 bets. Schoolboy Error!
