not sure about blackpool and brum. They are both a bit toothless but hey I'm jumping on it anyway. 9/1 is always worth a fiver

I want to get paid on saturday though so will do a 2nd one with man v arsenal and sunderland v hall and without brum and cardiff

[Beeston Brawler]

Those four aren't bad picks, but I'd back Villa to go to St. Andrews and keep a clean sheet.

I've put £2 each on rounds 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7 in Fury vs McDermott.

I don't see Fury blasting McDermott out early - the only decent (ish) guy he has blown away is Belshaw, and Macca for all his faults is a class above, and will most likely look to hug Fury to retain energy.

[TFFP]

Yeah but Skelton...

[Beeston Brawler]

Hmmm..... it did enter my head I must admit.

I haven't seen it but heard the story..... not sure Fury is as naturally aggressive as Skelton - but those body punches do concern me (in relation to my bet).

The odds looked pretty good, that's all I can say

You lumped anything on Kessler by stoppage?

Load up on that

Yeah wtf is that about i put it in my accumulator yesterday.

Leeds 10/11 vs Southend
West Brom 2/5 vs Plymouth
Watford 1/1 vs Barnsley
Charlton 8/13 vs Southampton
Huddersfield 8/11 vs Brentford

£5 - £75

[TFFP]

Not yet. It feels like 20 or 30 £ to me.

The concerning thing is he's 1/33 on but the stoppage is at 1/2. Maybe they know something about Perdomo I don't, they will have studied him. I've only seen a few minutes so I don't know how tough it is.

Do you think the odds are short?

We have won 8/8 this season (6 league, 2 cup - both against Championship sides) and rarely been troubled in any match.

That seems a pretty risk free accumulator - depending on who is home/away.... I will look that up myself.

Are Southend wank?

Looking at form lines....

He lost a close UD to Sartison, who was subsequently thrashed (and KO'd) by Kessler.... other than that his resume is threadbare.

Haussler was a limited (albeit tough) guy that hadn't been KO'd, and Kessler treated him like some 3rd rate sparring fodder.

Perhaps this may be an error from the bookies, or simply plenty of punters loading on Kessler merely to win not knowing too much about this dude.

I thought they would have been shorter odds with the start leeds have made.

Barnsley are the ones that i have regrets about at the minute, every manager i remember getting sacked recently the guy coming in always has a good start then gets pissed all over.

Anyone know why southamptons odds are always good. I got beat out of a bet last week because of Colchester the odds were too good to give up on i think it was 3/1 or 4/1.

[safc1990]

Just stuck £5 at 33/1 on Cotto beating Pac in Round 3.

[Beeston Brawler]

Southend are unbeaten at home though, that might be why Leeds aren't shorter.

That said, they have drawn 4 of 6 (two home, two away)..... they may look to park the bus.

With our strikers though in top form a win is a formality.

[antcull]

Southend are a very hard team to beat....especially at home....I think Beckford is doubtful aswell....I reckon a bit of an upset there.

Not confident on Watford over Barnsley either. Watford recently lost their best defender and best attacking player to Pompey....and the new manager effect at Barnsley makes it a risky one
