Kind of lost on why people fancy Wigan.
Their away form is pants and they have injuries to key defenders hence why their form is poor
Just cannot see it
Wigan were very good odds at half time when 1-0 down. Something like 10/1.
Stoke were something like 14/1 when 1-0 down. Draws were decent too.

Hull 4/5 v Huddersfield
Blackpool 21/20 v Blackburn
Sheff Utd 10/11 v Tranmere
MK Dons 4/11 v Hartlepool
4fold = 9/1
It would be rude of me not to have a go on this after last weeks Hull and Ipswich shout.
None of the oppositions troubled the teams backed and clean sheets earned. 2 of them 1-0 up very early and the next not so long after. Trouble is Sheff Utd couldn't muster much with nearly 70% possession and it stayed 0-0.

Nevermind, Sheffield United at home are so unpredictable it's unreal. How much did you have on it?

Charlie, hope Barnsley give you your goal. About 25 plus injury time to get it.
Can't believe Sheff Utd's p1ss poor chance creation with nearly 70% possession but that's having a 4 team acca.
Going with a 2 or 3 result on Spurs, West Brom, Arse next. Swansea are good value but Spurs are aiming for top 4. A spread on the acca might be worth a dabble, nothing more.
It's not how much you put on which is important, it's a numbers game. Knowledge or good gut feeling is always better than impulse. Always bewilders me when people say what they're betting on followed by, 'returns £xxx.' It's not really the point to others and not the point if you keep in mind your previous bets. Unless of course you delete them from memory, therefore pointless betting more than a fiver anyway.

£60 at 3/1. Sounds like a cheap Christmas.
You're a cheap date, mate. Send us all a postcard lauding it, calling everyone muppets with your £180.

£180 is still a win, rather have that then nothing?! Was obvious Wigan wasn't going to win.
Didn't see Villa smashing Liverpool and f***ing me over tho

Whether it's £18, £180 or £1,800 isn't the point. What is the point is thinking you're William Hill and trying to claim everyone else is a muppet each week, claiming everyone else should be off to the funny farm after your bet won. His bet last week didn't.

You win some you lose some! Just the same, Barnsley had 74% and couldn't score.
Luckily I backed the no at 11/10 and had 20 quid on it. Which at least breaks me even for the day.
I see, perhaps better to stick to a treble at most with the winners.

Well i'm cooking this year and invited my sister and her family. That should cover all the food and drink.
Sorry if I sounded arrogant, i'd be happier if we all won and I was trying to put people off Wigan.

Don't see much tempting in the Premier League. Teams are hitting form although you don't expect them to keep it.
Tonight (Fri):
1) Hull win 6/4 at Derby (derby have plenty of injuries)
2) Cheltenham win 6/4 at Rochdale
3) Burton win 11/8 at Barnet
(Sat):
4) Birm City win 5/4 v Burnley
5) Palace win 8/11 v Huddersfield
6) Coventry win 1/1 vs Preston
7) Rotherham win 1/1 at Bristol Rovers
8 ) Port Vale win 4/7 vs AFC Wimbledon
(Sun):
9) Man Utd win 4/7 at Swansea
Obviously need to whittle this down a lot but quite fancy 5,6,7,8 (Palace, Coventry, Rotherham, Port Vale) and also 1 (Hull). 3 away wins tonight isn't very likely.
Might do a double and a treble.

Just thought I'd say.....
Last season best return by far to level stakes was Wigan out of the entire 92 clubs. They come up when least expected.
Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

Yeah I wouldn't go near Wigan v Arsenal this w/e. If it wasn't for Sebastien Bassong they would've equalised at Norwich in the dying seconds last week.

Palace and Man City double is the standout bet this weekend. Evens.

I always make money from this stage of the season onwards by backing teams that haven't drawn yet to do so. i.e Wolves haven't drawn away yet this season, Leyton Orient haven't drawn at home yet etc. Only a few left (including Cardiff at home....who are they playing at their place next??!!).
Rather than just back the draw, do correct scores from 0-0 through to 3-3. If you're lucky, as I was a couple of times last season, the 3-3 pays around 50-1 rather than the normal 5-2 or so. 1-1's a bugger though.
Alternatively, for three bets, cover the HT/FT combos. Last week Walsall/Yeovil paid 16-1 Walsall HT FT draw.

This week's bets:
single on Huddersfield (just to put the mockers on it, as usual)
and a 100/1 acca on :
Birmingham
Brighton
Cardiff
Millwall
Charlton
Didn't put my customary 0-0 on for home games I'm attending though (bore draw insurance), so expect it to come in!

Wolves - Lucky win!
Juventus - Left it late.
Now I need Athletico to win in the 2nd half to pay out for my bets tomorrow!

Right - Weekend Banker this weekend is....
Brentford to beat Stevenage - Weekend Banker
Brentford have the strongest home form and they don't lose while Stevenage's early season form has totally evaporated.
I'm going to lump on this single....4/5
