I'm also very picky when it comes to the lower league games. However, I don't think there was a better bet in English football today (at odds of evens or better anyway) than Cheltenham. Just one of those things - United lost to Burnley on Wednesday but win 5-0 today. Huddersfield scored SEVEN goals during the week but lost 1-0 today.
Cheers. I still can't believe it. Just hope Lamapard can salvage the weekend tomorrow!
Ouch! Fair play on getting nine right though - that's pretty incredible! But not much consolation to you now I'm sure
I quite often get 9+ teams in accus, there is always a team to bugger you up, such as chelt this wk end

i read your blog last night. interesting read, well thought out picks keep it up and good luck with the selections.
Cheers mate!I like your two bets. Especially the West Ham one. Odd price for them away to Blackburn.
Really hoping these come off. Still in a state of shock from that Cheltenham-Bradford gameDecent shout on MK Dons but they need to improve in midfield if they are going to be the force they were last year.
Exeter were totally dire last weekend, okay they won but the penalty was there only shot on goal. Carlisle had 15 corners to there 3 and 6 shots on target (9 off) to there 1. If it was any other team Exeter would have lost heavily. I think instead of waffling on in the 1st 2 paragraphs you should have made it clear that Exeter were absolutely appalling last week against Carlisle and if they continue to show that level of form they are destined for the drop. MK Dons havent set the world alight either in there first few games, as already said their midfield needs to improve and they need to find some stability at the back but if the same Exeter team turn up as they did last week then they are in for a long afternoon.
Good luck with your bet.
Thanks. You've certainly done your homework
As I said in the blog, I found it very hard to pick one really good bet this week and MK Dons were the best I could come up with. Haven't watched any MK Dons or Exeter games so far this season so I'm just going on results and what I know of both teams. As for the waffle - a lot of people reading the blog will have a good knowledge of football but I know some people who only follow their own team and know nothing about the other leagues. That's why I like to give a bit of background info on the teams I'm selecting (who's in charge, etc). Let's hope the Dons can do it! 0 -

Get in!:D
FT: Exeter 1-2 MK Dons (7/5)
Great to get back on track with that result. However, the 'Cheeky Punt' didn't come off:
FT: Blackburn 0-0 West Ham (11/5)
I knew West Ham would get something, but a win was too much for them on the day. In profit for the weekend though :cool:0 -

i had the dons in my accumy!!!
had 700 on rangers, dons, notts co and spurs!!!
would have been 4 grand better off if sven and his boys had come through!!!
Thanks. Hard luck on the acca. When I was lookimg through the leagues for my tips notts co. were on a shortlist of four or five so you weren't the only one who fancied them.wireless101 wrote: »Silent Assassin, are you in profit?
Yes, on the double-up bet I've had two winners out of three at odds of Evens and 7/5. One winner out of three on the 'Cheeky Punt' at odds of 5/2. I'll put up some kind of profit/loss chart when I'm updating the blog later.0 -

Didn't Steve Staunton's Ireland beat Denmark 3 - 0 or something in a friendly too?
I forgot about that one There's proof if you ever needed it!i was looking at this match, Portugal have to win their next 2 match to quailfy afiak
the Danes would be happy with a draw I think
Denmark have been excellent so far defensively - five clean sheets from their six qualifiers. Hungary are Denmark's main threat to qualification right now and considering they've won away to Portugal (and Sweden) I can't see Denmark holding out for a draw at home to them. Portugal will have to attack, which will leave a lot of chances for Denmark to hit them on the break.Newjellyboxer wrote: »Might be a decent punt this one. Arent Portugal toothless enough up front. Have to agree with other posters about international football being a toughy to bet on!
I'm definitely not as comfortable betting on internationals as club games.. but when in Rome!
You're right about Portugal up front - they haven't scored in 3 out of the last 4 qualifiers (Albania being the exception :cool:) 0 -

Bloody hell! How do you legislate for a result like that? Poland were a dead cert. Think 90% of the Gambling forum had them between accas and what not. Feckin internationals!!:(:( 0 -

Ya sickener, but thats the nature of gambling, you win some you lose some.
When you're up its never as good as it seems and when you're down you know you're always gonna come right back up again.:)
Poland almost nicked it aswell.
fixtures mid week and next weekend to salvage some returns fingers crossed
