    Wolfsburg are an incredibly flawed team.

    They were flawed last year when they fluked the title and are even more so this year.

    Roy Hodgson is certainly one of the top two football tacticans in the world and nobody is better at tactically exploiting massive flaws than Roy. Proven against Wolfburg and any team, no matter how good, unfortunate enough to go down to 10 men against Fulham. You are better off with 10 men against Barcelona than you are against Roy Hodgson's Fulham who will systematically break you down.

    Wolfsburg were poor indeed. Dzeko was a bit of a disapointment last night, outshone by Bobby Zamora.

    Bets I like for tonight:

    Audley 1/2
    Audley by decision 100/30
    Barker by decision 5/4

    I've done a treble -

    Audley Win
    Barker Pts (cheers for the homework earlier in the week)
    Leinster (-5) to beat Clermont.

    1/4 finals of the HEC this w/e.

    Some cash to be made .

    Nice. Dunno anything about Rugby but I like those picks. I can't see Audley making the same mistake tonight and Sprott is more in journeyman mode these days.

    I actually think Audley could stop him, thats probably my favoured outcome but the 3/1 you can get on the decision is overpriced IMO...so I'll have a go.

    Definitely like the Barker PTS/Audley double.

    West Ham to win 2-0 is 7/1 at Ladbrokes, there is absolutely no way we will win tomorrow.

    Yeah, Audley and Barker by decision looks to be a solid bet.

    I've got 25 on Sprott by stoppage.

    A cheeky bet would be a tenner on both Barker and Sprott by decision, pays just over 10/1 :yep

    I don't think I like Audley stoppage.

    Since he's been fighting in Germany, and become a bit of an opponent Sprott has looked durable. I think he's only been stopped once in recent years, against a very good Chagaev.

    And we all know about how risk averse Audley is.

    I'm still liking Audley points with perhaps a small bet on Sprott to land the de ja vue punch.

    Some good points you make. Maybe I will have a dash on the Barker/Audley PTS double. 7/1 :shock:

    Does anyone fancy Holyfield to stop Botha at 4/1?

    I've had:

    Middlesbrough vs Sheffield Wednesday 8/11
    Norwich vs MK Dons 8/15
    Millwall vs Gillingham 4/11

    Somewhere around 11/4

    Newcastle vs Blackpool 4/7
    Middlesbrough vs Sheffield Wednesday 8/11
    Southampton vs Charlton 20/21

    Just under 9/2

    I will have a few quid on this aswell. The man has his last two up.

    Chesterfield at home are a good bet as are Villerreal. Hull at home completes my treble. Sprott by KO as well tonight and Clermont to win in the rugby.
