Help please! I've got a free £5 bet to stake before Monday & there's no more footy!!!
I think the title says it all really.
I've got a free £5 bet to use which expires on Monday but I'm pretty clueless with most sports & as there's no more footy until next month I've no idea what to stick it on.
If anyone's got any decent tips for pretty much anything going on right now that would be great. Kinda thinking I should take a mild long shot with it without backing something/someone that's like a 500/1 rank outsider or anything!

pop it in a double with Robbie Keane @ 11/8 to join Villa in this window too.
Its a great thing to bet on, as you get 4 days (unless he misses the cut) worth of entertainment for your bet, and the odds are always pretty big!
Gonna have a look at the prices myself now, shall put a few names up and see what u think.
U can go ew right?
I will be having my usual buy in or 2 on Tiger, believing this is the time for him to re-gain form. He has won by an aggregate of 13 shots the last 2 times he has played the open at St Andrews, so obviously knows his way round.
6/1 about Tiger would be alot bigger if it was being played at another venue, but he will deffo be getting my money. - Also, he WONT miss the cut, and WILL be in the mix on the final day, so like when ur backing a horse you want one which will give you an honest run for your money, Tiger is your man!
Of the others, Justin Rose is in great form, 22/1
Padraig Harrington is great when the course is playing tough, I'm no weatherman, but if the forecast is bleak, his chances will improve to better than the 20/1 available.
Geoff Ogilvy at 75/1 is a good e/w bet, as are Charl Swartzel (80/1) and Nick Watney (90/1) who ALWAYS seem to be in the mix early in big tournaments then fade, maybe they can string 4 big rounds together.
Y.E.Yang is a ridiculous price at 175/1 - a former major champion.
Ive quoted half the field, not sure what sort of odds ur looking for, but none of the above are without a chance, will be having abit ew on most of them, and ALOT on Tiger to roar back to form!
(coverage 8am - 9pm Thurs and Fri - how good is that!!!)
