    Kid Galahad to get a "British stoppage" He is VERY accurate, so many of his shots will hit his opponent cleanly without ever knocking them clean out. However it might be a bit like Corley last week, where he stuns his foe one times too many and the ref steps in.

    I think if Galahad gets the stoppage (I am predicting that he will), then it will more likely be down to facial damage. Wale is strong for the first half of a fight, but once he slows down his head movement is very stationary and is an easy target to be picked off. He does have a decent chin though (despite being hurt by that decent French fighter a little while ago), but is very susceptible to cuts - they've plagued him throughout his career, including in his sole stoppage loss a few years ago.

    It completely depends on the order in which the acts perform, IMO.

    For example, if the Loveable Rogues or the dog act are the 2nd or 3rd performers on the show, then they have little chance of getting into the top 3. They're two of the favourites so I doubt they'll get a bad position, but you never know.

    Ryan if he gets the 'pimp slot' may have a chance, but I think that slot will be reserved for Ashle and Pudsey

    This was a good shout.

    Did the over (8.5) for 4/6 as part of my bet but looking at Wale's face that may be dodgy.

    They've always got ways around it. You'll need to turnover that £200 about 50 times before they consider giving it to you as cash.

    VERY few times do these things ever work in my experience and even then it's not £200 you'll end up with.

    Aye, the only time it's ever been as simple as 50-50 on red and black with me was a free £10 from skybet a few months back.

    Managed to rollover a £25 bonus on bet365 and get £100 back before but it took ****ing ages and I ended up betting on squash and obscure women's football at 5am.
