Got Ash to thank for this good run I'm on. His St Helens pick from last Thursday properly got it all going, and it's gone from strength to strength since then. Approximately £500 up in 5 days. I must've followed the only bet that didn't come home. The Sanchez one? Genuinely the one bet I had that didn't come off. I honestly think posting your bets in here is a curse. Had: £30 on PSG over 1.5 team goals, paid £71 £25 on Messi and Ibra anytime, paid £110 £20 on PSG -1, paid £84 Stand by the Sanchez bet still being good value. Got it refunded anyway, not sure I've ever had a particularly significant win on this b365 in play offer, but it's too good an offer to refuse.

£200 up from tonight.

Going on Sanchez in play anytime.

Grow the fuck up.

A brilliant 1/33. Terrible value but for once, the odds actually don't really matter for that bet.

One word of caution - it says in the T&Cs that any attempt to 'guarantee a profit' might result in them not paying out. That's why I'm putting the 0-0 bet on with another firm. I haven't actually been denied a payout from doing this before but just in case do they catch on, thought I'd point that out.

Fitness more than anything I think. Pienaar is probably seen as more 'reliable'. I think also too much is put into the whole Baines/Pienaar left wing relationship which, while it's been mint for us, hasn't been as prevalent under Martinez (mainly due to the development of Cafu on the other wing). I'd definitely give McGeady some more time, though. G-Def is fucking class IMO, really hope we can get him for next season, but again he's just working his way back from injury. He was starting to get some regular game time before he got injured. Pienaar reminds me of Cahill in terms of his position at the club. Used to be really good and incredibly useful for us, but increasingly can't do it. Still has some good games but not enough to suggest he'll be a big player for us anymore. Remember getting shot down by all and sundry on Everton forums for suggesting we should've got rid of Cahill a good couple of years before we actually did. He was a mint servant for us but his time was coming to an end and if we were to progress, we'd have to improve upon him. Pienaar, while a different player footballing-wise, is slowly going in that direction. Not gonna give up on him just yet and I expect him to contribute between now and the end of the season but he's just not on the same level he was previously.

He is, and has been for 6-12 months. Sad to see but simply isn't good enough to regularly be very good at this level.

You place a pre-match bet up to £50. Then place an in-play bet up to £50. If your in play bet loses, it's refunded. Currently there are no rules about your pre-match bet having to be over certain odds, so for me: £50 on over 0.5 match goals £3 lay on 0-0 @ 16/1 with Boylesports Then you have what is essentially a free £50 in-play bet, knowing that your original £50 is safe. If your in-play bet loses, oh well, you get it back. If it wins, jackpot.

Oh I know he isn't. He's still painfully terrible. He does have an ounce of finishing ability, though. I'm genuinely unsure if Lukaku would have got onto Taylor's mistake yesterday and finished it, he hasn't looked sharp for a while.

Think I'm begrudgingly going to have to admit Steven Naismith, in the penalty area, is actually not that disastrous. I maintain he's a terrible footballer but he's slightly more useful than I was willing to give him credit for. We were poor today I thought. Have no idea what combination of Class A drugs some of our players were on; Pienaar's lofted pass out of play for a Swansea corner was the pinnacle of fuckwittery. Don't expect us to get through but think we've got a better chance against Arsenal though than Liverpool, purely because of how consistently shit we are against the latter. Arsenal could turn up and rip us a new one on their day but I think we've got more than enough to trouble them and hopefully at least get a replay, and if Arsenal are having an off day there's no reason we can't capitalise and win. That would however involve playing well, something we've rarely done in the past month or 2.

This sums up the majority of Argie games I've watched in the past year or 2. And in many ways, this does too.

Nice one.

Classic. Sevilla down to 10. Ref has delivered a vintage "must make it up" performance these last 20 minutes. Sevilla should've had at least one more penalty but the ref's basically refusing to give anything else. Ah well, not to worry. On to South America again. Gone for a BTTS double in the Boca and Medellin games.

Been a very good weekend's betting, about £300 up. Small in-play bet on Sevilla to score.

Man, you can get some silly in-play odds on South American football. Just by seeing how the games went and combining it with form, made over £200 profit in the early hours of the morning just from bets such as scoring a goal before 80:00, scoring the next goal, etc. Often odds against which they just shouldn't have been. This thread is cursed though, I'm sure of it. With that in mind: over 1.5 team goals for Hoffenheim and Hapoel Tel Aviv @ 21/10.

Just stuck £110* on BTTS in a Chilean game and it went from 0-0 to 1-1 in 2 minutes. Mint. Winnings from earlier tonight, admittedly. Didn't just think, aye, yknow what I need? A £110 BTTS bet.

Rollernonce. :lol: Dying.

:lol: It's in the delivery.

Tragic waste of talent. Should've been one of your finest players in a decade. Arguably still was in terms of pure talent, terribly managed.

+ combined x100

It was 100% his sort of goal too. 35 yards out, had a look around, couldn't be fucked passing so decided he fancied blasting it in from way out. So casual, which is why I love him. It's also why I can't see him becoming a truly class player. Really do think he has it in him to be among the world's best one day, if he put in just a bit more effort.

Got on Milan to score the 1st goal too. Mario. Earlier double was nowhere near mind. Istres v Tours the culprit, had over 2.5 goals - the stats HEAVILY suggested that but it was apparently a terrible game.

Concurred. RIP.
