Football league winners 2013/4
Just had my "to win the league bets"
Not included Chelsea who will win the Premiership.
Have gone for
Ipswich 20-1, dangerous as they are my team so will probably be doubly disappointed. However I am sure Mick McCarthy has got them sorted now and they were one of form teams as last season closed. Also he has got worse teams out of Championship.
Division 1 - Preston 16-1 who I did last year but now think this change of manager will work.
Division 2 -Cheltenham 20-1 have done these last two seasons, surely their time will come.
Also included them in doubles and trebles.

As for the Championship, I think QPR will be there or thereabouts and I can't see my beloved Leicester pulling up any trees (although i hope i'm wrong).
In League One, i think with Jackett in charge and they still have Premier League parachute payments, Wolves will walk the league and in League Two, i agree wiith an earlier post about Newport County. The Conference champs often do well in League Two straight away and I think they have the financial clout to aid them.
Only a few weeks to go!
Hope i,m proved wrong tho - GL
Championship..I think reading at 10s are fantastic value ,Last yr they did ok and with them keeping the majority of there team and new additions I think they will be the champs,QPR will be there but not sure allthe changes they are going to go through will help there cause tbh.2nd spot I will punt on Leeds.
DIV 1..Wolves are worthy favs but again they will be making lots of changes and personally I don't think there as good as some believe,Posh will be in the mix but Bristol city are my tip to win with sheff utd and posh 2nd n 3rd.Another tip for me is Swindon to get relegated as the clubs financial affairs is in bits and at 5/1 that is value.
DIV 2..Well this is hard,Oxford have chances with there good squad and think Newport will do ok but my tip is Fleetwood now they have had one yr in the lge,Southend I HOPE will be in the mix and I can see Plymouth being up there this year.
FA CUP...Arsenal v Man city
LGE CUP..Chelsea v Aston villa
CHAMPS LGE FINAL...Bayern v Chelsea
Last year I backed them because a Tranmere supporter told me they nicked all their best players, what happens Tranmere did a lot better than Preston, Hoping this year you are wrong and that you and I will be pleasantly surprised LOL
Wolves 7/2 to win a very very very very poor league 1, still getting parachute payments, and have brought in a really good manager, getting rid of that moron Saunders, who should never get another job at a football league club.
Reading 8/1 for c'ship for me, good club, good squad, always there or there abouts, Adkins knows how to get a team out of the division.
No idea about league 2, will prob end up filling my quadrouple w/ Norhtampton again when Splashman convinces me they're guna go all season unbeaten.
Chelsea for the prem! Obv!!!
1st bets for season - To early for top goalscorer betting yet as mine normally get injured anyway before the start
Maybe not to early for a punt on top scorer . had him last year and his season got disrupted when moving from Newcastle where he was on a run of goals and misssed out vital games for them after the move.
laced (matched)Order by Matched Date
championship = Nott'm Forest
League One = Wolves
League Two = Portsmouth
You heard it here 1st folks
Fancy QPR to smash champinoship, maybe 100 points?
Mk dons my pick for promotion in League 1. Solid
Portsmouth almost guranteed to win league 2.
England to win world cup. Why not eh' Wilshere the key man.
/>>> Can't wait till this time next year for the smug luck on my face.
In Response to Re: Football league winners 2013/4:
Including ALL your horse tips, four candle ratings, in fact any post you have ever made related to sports betting this is the one I really hope you are right with!
Man Utd out of the top four would be hilarious!!
Ok pushing it for out of top four especailly if Liverpool sell suarez as I would then have to rely on Spurs and who can rely on them.
But I am very happy with 5-1 Utd , they WILL NOT, NO WAY, Not in a month of Sundays win the league in 2013 /14. The only person who has kept them on track last two years is Ferguson and he has gone.
Even With BEST, Law and Charlton they could not keep it up when they lost Sir Matt and the same will happen this time. The only hope for United is that this time they dont get relegated within 3 years like they did last time a legend left the stage.
Just realistic, it will take time, if he gets enough, for Moyes to rebuild a team and all the others look strong. I dont disagree with you re Chelsea. See my first post on this thread.
