    Yes GL us mate, decent start so far, 300/1 shot -3 through the first round...


    had 3pts on Harrison to beat Berdych today at 6/1 with Marathon, If there is going to be a big shock today then i think it could be here,

    i will probably do a thread on it nearer the start of the season, the only bet ive had so far is Bury to win League 1. managed to get 66/1, think its about 25/1 now but even that is a decent price, i think they will be about 16/1 come the start of the season, they have made some great signings, Lee Clark has a great managerial record at this level and their transfer/wage budget is one of the biggest in the league, its the fact they have under acheived so much recently which is why they arent one of the favourites.

    Probably my most obscure bet so far.

    AFC Workington to be Carlisle in tonights friendly match at 4/1,

    Carlisle played last night with a full strength team, which means tonight side is likely to be made up of youth players and possibly trialists. AFC Workington have played 2 friendlies and won 1-0 and 10-2 against Annan Athletic and Whitehaven, and they did well last season. i think the price is huge and I see the game as 50-50.

    ive gone 5 points on a Workington win with Skybet
    also 2 points on Workington ht/ft at 8/1 with BF

    Star sixes starts tonight and i was looking for an angle in it so i decided to add up the combined amount of years its been since each teams outfield players played a competitive season (sad i know). the results were

    brazil 44
    england 31
    china 101
    denmark 42
    france 43
    germany 41
    italy 63
    mexico 56
    nigeria 80
    portugal 34
    scotland 42
    spain  43

    if all players were of level ability then obviously England would have the best chance, and im happy to concede that we are behind the likes of Brazil, France and Spain in ability but i think we should have a fitness edge and i quite like us at the price of 6/1 so ive had 1pt on that... in the T/s market ive gone for Gerrard at 10/1, hes still a peak fitness and has been playing a lot over the summer and i see him as englands main goal threat with Owen lacking fitness and probably getting injured and Heskey being Heskey. also had 1 pt on england to win and Gerrard top scorer at 25/1

    Seems likely that friendlies are always hard to judge 0-0 wasn't bad at half time :-) but much too strong second half

    yeah the Carlisle line up was a lot stronger than was expected, its very strange in this day and age for a team to play two away games in 2 days with a very similar line up.  I rarely bet on friendlies myself i just thought it was a rather big price given the circumstances.

    Not the greatest week with the golf, but Fox did place at 80/1 which boosts the bankroll.

    N1 - managed to get 33,s on it although i could only but £7 odd on it . I,ll see if they drift a bit on the exchange (currently 28,s) and slap some more on. I spent a few months in Bury a cpl of years ago and would like to see them do well anyway

    Happy with today, 6 out of 7 in the top 25, tomorrow looks a rough day with quite a few on the wrong side of the draw.

    gonna have one more crack at the 3balls, Beef, Thomas, Spieth, Kisner 26/1 just 1pt

    Gutted Kuchar couldnt hold out for the win, it would have made this challenge far easier, anyway Kuch and Noren both placed at 50/1 and 45/1 respectively, and kuchar placed for top American too meaning £275 returns, so still a profitable weekend.

    One horse i like today, Circuitous in the Ayr 2.30 at 7/1 has definitely been overpriced in its last couple of races and id expect to see him fight out the finish. just the 1pt e/w
