British Forum BETTING thread

i was betting on the live tennis and it wern't going well, i was about £20 down and then i stuck a last ditch bet on for a lossed service game at 3/1, stuck £10 on it and i won so ended the day in the positive...

 

...then put my winnings on the Froch fight, chose froch to win in rounds 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, just stuck £2 on each round

 

i bet at ladbrokes and betfred. Tonight i have had 25 on taylor at even money. to me its easy money. cant see froch winning

 

Looks like alot of money has gone on Froch

 

I put £5 on froch tko and im happy now

 

tip of the day...portsmouth to get relagated at 25/1, they've got a tough run in. Newcastle to stay up.

portsmouth's fixtures:
newcastle (A)...tough
Arsenal (H)...tough
Blackburn (A)...tough
Sunderland (H)...Win
Wigan (A)...depends if wigan have anything to play for

Newcastle have 3 winnable home games and are away against villa on the last day

 

Jesus if i had balls id go with it

 

Stick a fork in Newcastle.

The players have no balls, no desire for the fight.

Unlike....

West Brom
Sunderland
Portsmouth
Stoke
Hull
Blackburn

 

i put a fiver on it

 

i know what u mean but ther manager has balls tho, and they have an easy run in apart from liverpool away

 

Not sure about that....

They aren't getting anything tomorrow night.

You heard it here 1st!

 

where did u get pompey at 25-1

 

william hill

 

Even you prediction has Pompey getting a minimum of 40 points, which has only seen three teams relegated since the league cut to 20 teams. Forty points will very likely be enough. Arsenal at home is eminately winnable for them as Arsenal have absolutely nothing to play for in the Premiership and that game is three days before the second leg of the Champions League semi final - you seriously want to stake money on Arsenal turning up for the Portsmouth game? Wigan are unlikely to have anything to play for on the last day as they are comfortably out of European contention and comfortably above the relegation zone. Even if Newcastle did go on a run and finish above Portsmouth there's no guarantee that Hull or Sunderland will as well. And that's all assuming Portsmouth don't just do a job at St James Park tonight which they are more than capable of doing against what is a woeful Newcastle side.

But if you do fancy it 26 and 27/1 are available on Betfair.

 

yh some good points ther...ur making me doubt myself now, bt i have faith - thers always surprises when it comes to this stage of the season. i did think the arsenal game came after the champo league 2nd leg bt ther U18's would still give anyone a game and wigan have a mangaer who has pride and wont want to lose especially wiv it being at home, its worth a punt anyway

i already stuck £5 on it...u watch pompey do a number on newcastle tonight now
