    Good medium bet in the write up, two small losers. Thanks for copying over ShamoBuc!

    Cheltenham Friday was successful enough :)

    Last I checked the market for first manager to be sacked on PP wasn't up. Got onto PP over the weekend and they said it'd be up this evening but my internet is poor and nothing's really loading at the moment so I can't see.
    Could someone check if it's up? I'll be putting money on Martin Russell personally.

    Nothing up at the moment, Martin Russell was one of our Outright Bets posted in this thread a month ago ;)
    League of Ireland Outright Bets

    Martin Russell (Limerick) - Premier Division Sack Race @ 8/1 (Paddy Power) – Novelty Bet Stake
    “Applies to next manager to leave his position by any means whether it's by resigning or getting sacked”
    Limerick dominated the league of Ireland first division last season winning the league with a colossal amount of points (75) winning 24 or their 28 games any winning the league by 23 pts. So you would imagine that Limerick fans are very happy at the moment, but there is some murmurs that sections of support aren't happy with Russell, and the fact he signs and players his son (deemed not good enough but Limerick fans) couple that with the wave of expectation after winning so easy in last season and add the money pumped into the squad, a poor start may have the Limerick faithful on his back.
    Tough opening games for the promoted side including Sligo, Dundalk and Derry. While Limerick seem to have a good squad on paper, and the way they steam rolled the FD last season, the opposition will be nothing compared to what they'll face this season, and while playing some very poor opposition last season, Limerick showed defensive frailties in a lot of games, gifting goals to opposition (almost 1 goal a game)
    While Keith Long at Bohs is favourite to be sacked first, we can't have it at 5/2 so We fancy Russell at 8/1 value to possibly be the first to get the sack. Buckley at pats has a 2 year deal and is on the board, Shamrock Rovers sacked a manager last season and had issues over compensation payment so won't want to go down same route again, Sligo lost a lot of games last year in the opening round of fixtures and stuck with Robertson, and also gave Heary every chance when he was there so don't seem keen to sack. Cork, Dundalk, Bray and Derry seem to be happy with their managers. So for fun, we'll have Martin Russell.

    ***LEAGUE OF IRELAND BETS***
    An OK weekend last week, with 1 Medium bet advised with it winning easily! Two small losses unfortunately. Going with 1 medium and two smalls this weekend! Myself, Aidan, Graeme and Alan have discussed and are happy with the below!

    Bray -v- Limerick Saturday 7.30pm
    Not much to say here, Bray scoring and conceding goals for fun. Over 2.5 goals in all of their 5 matches to date this season, with BTTS coming in also in all 5. Over
    Over 2.5 goals has only come in, in 1 of Limericks 4 games. Not to be put off though, as Bray have managed to score 13 goals in their 5 games while conceding 11.

    Over 2.5 Goals (GENERAL) @ 8/11 MEDIUM STAKE

    Cork -v- Dundalk Saturday 3pm
    A game being shown live on Irish TV normally means beware of betting! Both teams have been finding the net this season with 13 goals and 11 goals respectively scored this season so far in their 5 games.
    Seani Magure has managed to find the net in every game so far for Cork, while Patrick McEleney and Kilduff have been firing them in for Dundalk. Dundalk losing Andy Boyle to Preston was a big loss for their defense while Graeme isn't too happy with Cork's defense. Everything here pointing to either a cagey 0-0 draw or an epic 3-3 game.

    Both Teams to Score (GENERAL) @ 4/5 SMALL STAKE

    Athlone -v- Shelbourne Saturday 7.45pm
    Athlone are in absolute shambles since last season and have brought in foreigner "backers". 4 home based players and their manager (up until two weeks ago) didn't turn up for training on Monday supposedly. Their manager Colin Fortune was essentially pushed out of the manager role by a Portuguese coach. All very sussy and the FAI have said they are keeping a very close eye on the situation as the media have been restricted and everything by these "backers".
    Shels seem to have got a serious wake up call after the embarrassment against UCD at the start of the month, supposedly a decent performance away to Cobh and at home to Waterford last week.
    The absentee list at Shelbourne is finally getting shorter, with Jack Tuite returning following suspension and James O’Brien, Aaron Ashe and Chris Lyons (who returned to training this week) all available to Owen Heary for selection. Aidan Collins, though responding to treatment during the week, is rated as doubtful, while Dylan Kavanagh and Adam O’Connor remain on the injured list.

    Shels win (GENERAL) @ 11/10 SMALL STAKE

    Two small winners, overs in Bray/Lims loses.

    ***LEAGUE OF IRELAND BETS***
    An OK weekend last week, with 2 Small bets advised winning! One Medium losing unfortunately. Going with 2 mediums and 1 small this weekend! It's a weekend where you could pick a decent bet in most games so we've narrowed it down to 3 of the best in our opinion. Myself, Aidan, Graeme and Alan have discussed and are happy with the below! Two bets we omitted was Rovers -1 AH (as the line came in) and Cabinteely -0.25 - both could be inplay bets.

    Derry -v- Bray Friday 7.45pm
    2nd placed Derry host 5th placed Bray. Derry come into this after nearly a two week break due to the sudden death of their captain Ryan McBride. Derry have won 4 from 4 this season, averaging 3 goals scored a game while conceding just 2.
    Bray have had a mixed bag so far, winning 3 games and losing 3.
    Derry City should have Rory Patterson, Ben Doherty, Conor McDermott back for selection. Patterson and Doherty have both been out since the opening night victory 4-1 against Bohemians. Ronan Curtis, one of City’s standout players so far this campaign was selected for the Republic Of Ireland U-21 side and played in their victory last week.
    On paper this looks a great bet, added in the extra urge these Derry players will have on the day that will be in it.

    Derry win (GENERAL) @ EVENS MEDIUM STAKE

    Limerick -v- Cork Friday 7.45pm
    Table topping Cork come into this with 6 wins from 6 this season. On the back of an impressive 2-1 win against champions Dundalk on Saturday, Cork will be on a high. Newly promoted Limerick have been very inconsistent so far this season. Only a small on this as this is somewhat a derby game but on paper Cork should be winning this easily.

    Cork win (GENERAL) @ 3/4 SMALL STAKE

    Cobh -v- UCD Saturday 7.15pm
    Both sides have had good starts to the season, with UCD joint top and Cobh who with a win can go top of the table (results elsewhere going their way)
    In the games at St Colemans Park this season there has been plenty of Goal mouth action with 10 goals in the 3 games played, an average of 3.3 goals a game.
    In all 5 of Cobhs games this year both teams have scored, while UCD have only failed to score on 1 occasion, in a 2-0 defeat to league leaders Waterford.
    Statistically, Cobh always managed a goal in St Colemans Park, and with UCD's strong start and Cobhs defensive frailties we fancy UCD to also score.

    Both Teams To Score (GENERAL) @ 8/11 MEDIUM STAKE

    Dundalk,
    Derry,
    Cork,
    Bohs draw no bet (probably overly cautious there),
    6.29 on Paddy Power.

    lads i dont understand pats being favs away to bohs from what i seen this season ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,963 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    Makes no sense, Bohs missing a few could be the only reason. Paddy Power rightly have Bohs as favs.

    Longford and Athlone are very poor this year. Cabinteely looked a nice side (in the huge 1 match sample I've seen them). Wasn't impressed by Waterford the other night but going down to 10 didn't help and they were solid at the back before the sending off.

    First of our Outright bets wins! Two years in a row we've got the Sack Race down to a tee! ;)

    Hey,

    Can anyone tell me why Cabinteely FC have been cut from 9/1 to 3/1 inn places overnight in the EA sports cup tonight against Boh's?
    Seems rather peculiar..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32 chooo chooo


    Think Bohs have an Injury crisis of sorts


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    Cork and Waterford to win their respective leagues, 2.54.

    There's no odds for FAI Junior Cup outright at the minute but I'd add Sheriff to that too.

    Edit: Got Cork, Waterford and Sheriff at 4.3.

    An bad weekend last week, with just one Small bet advised winning! Myself, Aidan, Graeme and Alan have discussed and are happy with the below!

    Cork -v- Derry Friday 7.30pm
    Table toppers Cork host 3rd placed Derry. Cork go into the game on the back 7 wins from 7 this season, recording a 3-0 win against Limerick at Market’s Field last Friday. Their last home fixture saw them register a 2-1 win over Dundalk. The visitors come into the game on the back of a 3-2 home defeat against Bray Wanderers, their only defeat in their five this season.
    Derry normally struggle in Cork due to the nature of the journey, a 900km round trip! Cork are in fine form and will take advantage of Derrys situation at present.

    Cork -0.75 (GENERAL) @ 1.80 MEDIUM STAKE

    Bray -v- Galway Friday 7.45pm
    Bray come into this game in decent form and just outside the European places after a decent start. They boast a vast amount of attacking options which has shown in the opening round of games with 16 goals (2nd highest) scored so far in 7 games, it is in defence where they have let themselves down so far this season with a very leaky back 4, conceding 14 goals (2nd highest)
    Galway have had a poor start to the season, and have been shakey in front of goal however, in their last 4 games they have scored in each of them, like Bray, a leaky defence has cost them points on the board.
    We see this game as a game of two poor defences and see plenty of goalmouth action.

    Over 2.5 Goals (GENERAL) @ 4/5 SMALL STAKE

    UCD -v- Athlone Saturday 7.45pm
    UCD will be looking to bounce back from their 1-0 loss to Cobh last week. Athlone are conceding for fun this season while scoring a few, in 5 of their 6 League games they've been over 2.5 goals while in the League Cup mid week there was 7 goals in total! UCD will get a few at home while Athlone seem capable of scoring.

    Over 2.5 Goals (GENERAL) @ 4/5 SMALL STAKE
