    I know you dont really bet on outsider but my bet of the weekend will be Aston Villa to win at Liverpool, 13/2 is a hugh price imo
    Posted by jordz16
    Ambitious. I think Villa are terrible this year and Daniel Sturridge is back for Liverpool. (Admittedily Benteke is a doubt) but I think they'll tear Villa a new one this weekend...

    OK, too long sat in front of the computer, I've added a new bet...

    Middlesbrough to beat Leeds on Sunday and Stuani to score at any time 2/1. (I sense a 3-0 kind of score here). Middlesbrough are my tip to win the league this year and they've started really well. Just seen they're already 11/8 with Skybet and 2nd fav Brighton are back at 5/1.

    Total now staked this weekend in full - £65
    Balance -£39.35

    After two w/ends away on the lash, I am back today with a 6 fold.

    Man U v Sund
    Stoke v bourn
    West Ham v Nor
    Hull v Blackburn
    Sheff U v Donc
    Walsall v Crewe

    6 HOME wins pays @ 35/1

    Well that was a rubbish weekend! None of the trebles came in. Middlesbrough won 3-0 which is exactly what I predicted, but Stuani didn't score so it was a duff bet!

    What makes things worse is Gifty Louise has also been given the boot from Xfactor! To be fair, the very little I did see of her on Sunday she had a horrible attitude so deserved it!

    Gone for something slightly different tonight as I've dropped into the red... I probably should just stick to a couple of trebles, but I've gone for a 6 fold and used my free £5 bet.

    Doncaster OR draw vs Swindon (We're terrible last few weeks, and just sent our keeper back who has been playing really well).
    Gillingham v Fleetwood
    Leyton Orient vs Carlisle
    Pompey vs Exeter
    Wycombe v Cambridge
    Plymouth v Barnet

    I may have a change of heart later as there seem to be some kind fixtures tonight and stick to some trebles. But this pays £146.11

    So for now my balance remains at -£39.35

    Good Luck

    I have ignored Gillingham after only one away win this season and two defeats and a draw from the last three but Chesterfield are a bit flaky and have lost twice at home already this season and  I hope they lose again today as it will help my season long bets.

    Good Luck.

    Well the away double came in! I feel a bit hard done by with Luton not winning at home considering what a great run they're on. Oh well. Back to even for the season.

    So as I said above, 1 double came in last week, so that's back to even... well 14p down!

    Back to a full list of fixtures this week. Feels like it's been forever!.

    Treble - £20 returns £75.64

    Chelsea v Villa - Chelsea showing poor form, but Villa are terrible. Costa is back and will be ready to prove a point.

    Middlesbrough v Fulham - Boro are flying and I'd back them to win at home vs nearly anybody.

    Burnley v Bolton - The gap between them in the tables kind of makes you have to pick them here.

    ----------------

    Treble - £15 + £5 free bet - Potential returns £89.57

    Reading vs Charlton - Looks like Reading have put last seasons disaster behind them and are really pushing for promotion this year.

    Coventry v Blackpool - One of my favourites for the title at home to the worst team in the league in my opinion. Put your house on this one!

    Walsall v Chesterfield - Walsall surprising everyone this year, top of the league, playing great vs a mid table team.

    Balance coming into this week - -14p
    Balance after bet - -£35.14

    One win this weekend, and the other 2 only missed by 1 result each. Felt bad fist pumping at Swindon conceding in the 95th minute, but hey ho.

    Brings the total down to -£78.85
