    I'd *probably* say Lindsay points as an absolute guess.

    well usually probably wouldnt bother or would put a few on the draw because of its increasing popularity on FFN but as its two free bets id rather see the money n i think thts a farely safe option to get the return

    I dont know too much about Arnould to be honest but good luck in that one :good

    I was looking at a nice double Small to beat Webb and Maidana to beat Cayo .... Smalls a classy fighter and if his heads on the game will easily outbox Webb and Maidanas as tough as even though Cayo is flashy hes never fought anyone of his quality befoe ...pays 1.53 with Betfred...seems easy money ! :think

    Thats not a bad treble but as much as i love the warriors im loathed to back them purely cos ive backed em once this season and that was at Bradford ... so no jinx !

    Utd i too think are a good punt but hate backing them cos there ****s :good

    Everton > Bolton
    Arsenal > West Ham
    Villa > Wolves

    Pays 7/4 :think

    Throw in Portsmouth to draw with Hull and you can get 17/2.

    Grant said something about resting his players to defy the PL after they deducted points. Probably won't happen but worth keeping an eye on, by God Pompey are shite WITH their best players.

    I'm not sure Utd over Pool at 8/11 is amazing either. They seem to turn up in that game the last few seasons. If that **** Gerrard got the ban he deserved it might be better value

    Yeah - that's why I thought a draw might be the value bet at 5/2 (Pompey 6/4, Hull 5/2)

    Hull can't buy a goal away from home though, it's almost Shitter vs ****, at Shitter's ground.

    That said, with Iain Dowie as manager they'll work their socks off and will be well drilled.

    Yeah that treble looks good to me.I have something similar:

    Aston Villa vs Wolves
    Everton vs Bolton
    Real Madrid -1 vs Sporting Gijon

    21/10

    Lindsay did get the decision ! There was me ranting about no value...I should have gone for it ! ;) Only messing...

    Anyway, Matt Hatton looks superb value to me at 1/2 with Skybet. I'm surprised at that, I was thinking he'd be 1/3. My logic is this, Gianluca Branco is 39 years old, THIRTY NINE YEARS OLD. And he ain't no Bernard Hopkins, he looked pretty **** against Colin Lynes a few years ago. Matt Hatton is on home territory. Matt Hatton has a good chin, that means this is a distance fight in all likelihood if Branco is to win, a distance fight away from home and he's 39 years of age which doesn't bode well for his stamina down the stretch. He's also a career light welterweight. Come on, this is an absolute banker surely.

    Get it in your Doubles would be my tip, you don't want to get too greedy and **** up this near certainty. I'd also say do it soon because no way this will be 1/2 anywhere next week.

    I like these three and Wigan look a good bet to me as well at 5/6.

    Newcastle are playing well at the minute but our away form remains pretty poor. Only 1 win in the last 6.

    I think this will come down to how Bristol respond to the management change. You never know whether it will spur the players on or have a negative impact. I'd guess because they haven't got a new man in (the old assistanat has taken over) it will be a negative in this case but not worth my money as a single this weekend.

    It is a shame N'Zogbia may be injured (40/60 to make it atm), otherwise Wigan - Burnley, Wigan by 2 or more goals would have been amazing value, with Burnley defenders being so slow. Especially Fox and Cort.

    Citys main problem is at the back and that is what the old assistant was/is worked on.

    My wife is City fan so I have seen them a bit and the facts are they do not score enough and they concede way too many goals. The win against WBA was more to do with how poor they were and not how good City were.

    Plus their main goal threat has returned to Wolves from his loan spell. Cant spell his name so I wont even try
