    What did you do? Did you stick Wigan in the accy?

    I had the straight double - 5/2.

    Liverpool odds on away from home, a good bet? I would have to disagree there mate.

    A bet I saw that stuck out for a few weeks time Guzman to beat Funeka 2/1.

    No I had two separate bets.

    The double above looks good, Liverpool & Everton.

    Wigan are absolute shite and Torres + Gerrard are available. Wigan literally don't have any good players. Point taken though.


    Also got a sneaking feeling Sunderland might end their long and very **** run.


    Anyway, Devon is the one I'm loading up on. Way too skilled for Urango.

    I'm also confident in Pacquiao by decision over Clottey. 7/4. I'm hoping it goes out to 2/1 and then I'll jump on it.

    The *******s on there don't miss a trick, you had no chance. I remember catching them out on an in-play Argentine league game, a team scored but they didn't suspend the market. My bet went through on the result (there was like 3 mins left), the game ended, thought I'd got away with it but then I get a message saying it will be settled at the revised odds of 1/7 :-(

    Pac/Clottey is really reminding me a lot of Vitali/Kingpin. The odds are against it going the distance, I really don't see that. It's another one of those fights where the bookies are banking on past form and not really realizing the styles at work. Y'all thought I was insane taking Vitali by decision at 4/1 when he's only failed to stop one opponent of his victories. But I see this one the same, despite Pac's run of KO's this one is a decision.

    Clottey is built like something I've never seen before in a welterweight. He keeps it very tight when he's under fire..when all said and done he'll resort to that if he's getting his ass kicked. Pacquiao wouldn't have stopped a big guy in De La Hoya if De La Hoya had anything like the freshness and defence of Clottey. Do they think Pac is going to stop him to the body when Clottey has the ear muffs on? Get outta here...

    I think the 1/5 Pac to win is fair though...Clottey can't do enough to win the fight. Therefore 7/4 for Pacquiao decision equates to a sound investment IMO.

    I'm with you on this one TFFP (as I think I was with the VK/KJ fight going long although I didn't know enough about KJ to load up).

    Decision win for Pac looks good value for me.

    Newcastle and Rochdale double is paying just over even odds.

    Newcastle at home should have far too much for Barnsley. I was at the Watford Newcastle game last Sat and 1-2 was unbelievably flattering to Watford even though Newcastle never got our of second gear.

    Rochdale coming off a great win and Lincoln away from home are poor.

    Arsenal
    West Ham
    Everton

    Good value at around 2.75/1

    West Ham look to be the weak link but have had two good wins on the bounce at home and Coyle has taken his abysmal away form with him to Bolton.
