Barca? Perhaps, perhaps. If I did it'd probably be -1.... not betting a large enough amount to make 1/4 attractive value.

Pretty much set on Newcastle -1 Bordeaux ..and someone else, for tomorrow.

They have several players who drive/dribble into the box at pace at force the defenders to make mistakes. It's not a coincedence tbh. CONSPIRACY THOUGH! They do get a lot of penalties, and some of them are dubious yes. But yeah, ultimately since they have so many players who are so direct and get straight into the box at pace means they'll invariably get more decisions.

Apart from the fact it was onside, it not counting would have still put Inter through, and that Chelsea were outplayed, he's got a point.

Dunno why I bet on Sevilla, and it's indeed them who have fucked it up for me.

Drogba loves the CL.

"Dubious pen for West Brom". 1-0.

Villa 2-1, Barnsley 2-0.

A few weeks back when Boro scored: "Err well Jeff Boro have scored but I dunno who cos I wasn't paying attention"

Derby 0-1 Boro.

Forest behind.

Gateshead 1 up at home to Forest Green.

Ah go away, Ben Burgess and Ormerod will kick shit up.

I still find it fairly incredible that Swansea are 4th despite being the lowest scorers in the league. I know they haven't conceded many but still, it's crazy.

Loved him when he was here. I was very disappointed when he left, fairly sure he'll be back like.

Must say, didn't fancy either of them - flat out don't fancy Sheff Utd, and 4/6 seems shite value albeit Southampton are excellent at home recently. Admittedly I'm not the one who's made £1000 in a month.

£5 on: Sevilla Villa Leicester Stevenage pays £46.57 and £1 on 3 draws: P'boro - Donny Sheff U - B'pool Swansea - WBA pays £33.28.

Absolutely love him. A sad lack of managers like that in today's game - his charismatic, arrogant approach to football is highly refreshing and welcomed IMO. I'd go along with the one criticism, of him perhaps coaching some of the flair out of players but ultimately, his statistical record is sensational.

3-1; Loven, Nolan, Best.

It's not even funny anymore. He just, won't.

Is this the game for £3,450?

Howay Getafe. I like to see them do well - always struck me as a bit of an underdog team. I've liked them ever since they were cruelly knocked out of Europe by Bayern a couple of years ago. Athletic Bilbao as well, (as well as Barca for their ridiculous football generally).

I really do need an online betting account - some of the in-play odds are ridiculous. Lyon for example I saw, with about 20 minutes to go against Real, were something like 7/1 to draw the game. Outrageous odds.

Adam Johnson I hope. That would be a quite amazing turnaround. In the Championship in the autumn, in the World Cup by summer. He's never got a callup, however, will Capello put in the squad a player that he's never worked with? It's a big ask. But I'd like to think Capello will judge him purely on his form in the next 8 weeks. My concern is he won't get enough game time to impress.

Adam Johnson I hope. And his cause can only be strengthened with Lennon's apparently slow recovery at the moment. There's usually one who comes from 'nowhere' and Johnson looks like being this year's late entry.
