    That guy will have to score 3 goals in the 1st half to win over the fans! "Leon Knight w*nk w*nk wa*k"

    Comazzi looks good though... Pitty we have a grand total of 0 strikers (bar the youth team)

    Are you betting with your heart or your head here?

    looking to get some ante-post footy bets on - Just had some 1st day bets

    Had £200 on Chelsea to win at Stoke on 1st day at 3/4 on Paddy Power, but may lay it nearer the time

    £20 On A Villa to bt Fulham at 5/2

    £10 on liverpool and Sunderland to draw at 4/1

    I genuinely believe will be there or thereabouts. Making some quality signings and more to come. I cant see us being anywhere below the top 3!

     West Ham,Dagenham & Redbridge. Skybet paying 104/1 for outright win double,bigger elsewhere.Dagenham might be speculative but West Ham will stroll it.

    Splashies is right about Northampton, Gary Johnson is a good manager with a point to prove after it went pear-shaped for him at Peterborough. I think they're a good shot for the title and as i've said on another thread i think Leicester will be the team to beat in the Championship, 'West Ham will stroll it? I don't think so!!

  • edited July 2011

    Thank you both...

    will be lumping on both for promotion too before it all kicks off.

    Some of Northampton's better signings so far....

    Bayo Akinfenwa
    Jake Robinson
    Aaron Davies
    Paul Turnbull

    Loanee Prem keeper TBA
    Loanee Prem Left Back TBA

    But i really hope we keep hold of 19 year old Wonder Kid Michael Jacobs. Remember his name folks.

    MP !!!!

    Watch out, NO WAY ARE VILLA BEATING FULHAM!!  unless man city give them 100 mill & 3 loan players!!

    word is Jol has settled in well !! WILL macleish???? Villa losing couple players & fans just waiting to get on back of board & manager, couple of bad friendlies & it all goes wrong!!

    Conversley Fulham got early start in europa league, won first easy 3-0, and will play i think  4 or 6 easy, but competive, games before that match, instead of Brentford, Hayes, etc No Offence Bees or Hayes!

    two years ago after early europa start we got off to fler early then tired after Christmas I predict the same!!

    SOO!! BANKER Fulham beat Villa & we top leage after 6 games!!!!! LOL

    REMEMBER!! The only other time I put FULHAM BANKER up here was when we won at sunderland 0-3 !!


    ONE BIG THING!!

    This will be the first time Zamora & Dembele, have played together fully fit!!

    Just watch the money offered for Dembele in the Christmas window... 15..20...25 MILL...SERIOUS !!

    Ok so add to this list is goalkeeper Sam Walker from Chelsea, so hopefully a safe pair of gloves in goal. He looks huge by the way!

    I will probably be putting a bet on us to be top scorers in league after Jake Robinson tweeted.....

    " squad is looking very good in training, we are gonna score alot of goals this season"

    have gone for these teams to be promoted.

    west ham
    huddersfield
    swindon

    £10 treble returns £193
  • edited July 2011
    For what its worth here are mine, got the ew treble last year,
     
    Championship -Brighton
    Ist div Chesterfield
    2nd div-Accrington stanley

    ok so two have got to win promotion 2 years in a row but still fancy them.

    Also new handicapped Premier League looks good, Ive gone for Everton +24 points and Norwich +45

    Good luck all  
  • edited July 2011
    been looking at transfers and think west ham look very strong especially for championship so have put on £40 @ 9/2 to win league. 
  • edited July 2011
    I'll be waiting until next week before putting mine on. The problem with the season starting so early this year is that's there's still so many transfers to be done.

    FWIW, at the moment I'm tempted by Man Utd, West Ham, Huddersfield (or Preston) & Swindon. League 2 is a nightmare to call imo.
  • edited July 2011
    I've gone for two pre season bets.

    I've had a few quid each way on my main one:

    Prem - Man U @ 13/8
    Championship - West Ham @ 4/1 (as if I'd bet on anyone else!)
    League 1 - Huddersfield @ 5/1
    League 2 - Swindon @ 9/1
    Conference - Luton @ 11/4

    The 5 way returns 2952/1 should they all pick up the silverware

    I've also gone for a very small 50p each way on a real long shot

    Prem - Man City @ 4/1
    Championship - Middlesbrough @ 14/1
    League 1 - Preston @ 13/2
    League 2 - Northampton @ 18/1
    Conference - Stockport @ 12/1

    These 5 return an eye watering 138937/1

    Of course, I don't actually expect those 5 to win their respective divisions but they do represent great value as each way bets. It's 1/3 odds for top 2 in the Prem & 1/4 odds for top 3 in the other divisions.

    how are Birmingham only 5/1 to be relegated from the Championship when they are 7/2 to be promoted surely this doesn't make any sense?

    I maybe wrong but i think their owner is in hot water with the authorities back home. So I'm guessing the 5/1 factors in the fact he might be found guilty of something and therefore affecting funding at the club.

    I shall be lumping more wonga on Northampton and Leicester before next weekend is up. I want a big payday in May :P
