Cracking Bet tonight at short Odds

Death or Glory · 23-07-2008 2:34pm #1

Friendly between Shelboure and Leeds

Leeds have a full strength squad to choose from including a former Barcelona striker who scored 28 goals in 43 games last season for Spanish side Merida.

Shels are currently 2nd in the Eircom League First Division and have an important game on Friday away to Kildare County and are playing their U20's tonight.

Leeds already played 2 games in Ireland (beat Galway 0-2 and beat Bray 2-3 after being 2-0 down at half time)

Both teams in a division above Shels

Leeds currently at 10/11 with Ladbrokes, and I've just lumped on them

Get all over this like a cheap suit lads

There is a ladbrokes about 5 mins from the ground just past the Cat and Cage. Id advise getting to the ground, get confirmation of team sheets, get back up to Lads and steam in.

My main concern would be Leeds going like with like in terms of Shels fielding a weakened side, Leeds might do likewise to give some lads not involved yet a run out. If it is a strong Leeds side, then 10/11 looks cracking value, the 11/5 Leeds/Leeds in the ht/ft market could be value aswell

Leeds rested first choice players Jermaine Beckford, Casper Ankergran, Jonny Howson, Paul Huntington, Lubo Michalik and Frazer Richardson for the game on Sunday so all will play a big part.

McAllister has also said that he wants to give the players between 60-75 minutes tonight as opposed to wholesale changes at half time to increase their fitness.

Team I expect

Ankergran

Richardson
Huntington
Michalik
Sheehan

Robinson
Douglas
Howson
Johnson

Beckford
Barcelona Striker

Ladcrooks cut this to 8/11 in the last few minutes

still available at 5/6 with PP and 4/5 with Boyles

Expect the odds to shorten further

Famous last words!

Theres never a certainty!

This game is 1-1 at the moment

Shels took the lead, Leeds hit the post and crossbar, then it sounds as if our player Marques broke their centre forwards leg (centre forward already has 24 goals this season for Shels and was running us ragged)

Half Time now, Shel's making wholesale changes, couple of 17 & 18 year olds

1-1 Final Score.

backed at 5/6 and i figured that this would come in more than 6 times out of 11. You pays your money and you take your chances.

Cheers anyhow OP

Good news badbrian. There was no chances taken with this bet. It was a bet to nothing thanks to the generosity of the OP.

****E lads jus glad I missed this thread yesterday. I lumped on Levadia, unpatriotic like an all that I felt they would win the match. But fair play to Drogheda, Dynamo Kiev next round.

So card is goin to be cut-up at last. Account on betfair is locked until Thurs next.
