But that's what you need in this division, that standard will see you go up. Aye, Cardiff had the better of it overall, but what real work did Harper actually have?

Blimey, a 10/1+ one that came off!

My question is; how is everyone so good at drawing!? I'm fucking atrocious!

Back of the net! how much and well done. £5 stake £278 returns. Bloody hell, where from? Those are amazing odds. I'd have classed Pool, Chelsea and WBA as virtually certs, with Blackburn, Sunderland and Boro all being very likely. Only 2 I'd have been edgy on.

Sorry. Think I was a bit rash, should've gone for something based on draws. I'm usually fairly accurate with Everton games but I haven't a clue on this occasion, whatsoever. Could easily go all 3 ways, identical points, just comes down to who turns up on the day.

That's freaky how accurate that is, haha. Very good work.

2005 then march 2007 then this one. Sometimes the stats don't tell the full story. And IMO they don't tell the story he's a fucking dirty bastard who's got away with loads in the past. Wigan a couple of years ago, last day of the 07/08 season I believe, sticks in the head.

Brazil-Zaire, guy came out the wall and smashed the stationary ball. I think it was Zaire anyway.

How wasn't it 2-1 Utd!?

Some real hunger from Man Utd's midfield, and Berbatov and Rooney causing havoc in between Spurs' midfield and defence.

Glorious from Giggs.

That's tonight's wine & cider paid for. Are you suggesting's it's 95% luck? Howay Jill. Think I shall be embarking on a series of small-ish stakes but likely ones. An empire will be created. Sure! Don't know whether to risk any bets for tomorrow, or hang fire for a few days. Quite like the Italian league, usually decent value, but there's only been 2 games so far.

Man City? No, my tip at the start of the season. Chelsea. But City beat Arsenal. City 1st, Spurs 2nd defz.

Man City?

Huh? Pool, Blackburn, Boro and WBA infront, Watford and Sunderland drawing, I'd expect Chelsea to... Chelsea 1-1.

1/18 of the way there. Rrrr.

Balls, I didn't see Sheff Utd kicked off at 1. I hope mine isn't over before 3pm! Got another one for £293 on though. Equally unlikely.

Just like shagging a prossie. You get your win but no-one's actually impressed with you. Money talks. They're stupidly rich and when they win something some people will, rightly, say they've bought it. But most clubs that have been successful over the years have spent a shit load. It's a canny rule of thumb - the more you spend on good players, the more you win. Doesn't always work out like that obviously but generally speaking... Yep. Ambition + financial clout = [/potentialcanofworms]

These are the only ones I can see definitely coming off. The rest is down to hoping the teams perform on the day. Erm. Leeds played tonight mate. ..........

Outsider? Fuck you all: Liverpool Chelsea Wigan draw Sheff U Leicester Preston Reading draw Watford WBA Carlisle Hartlepool Huddersfield Bournemouth Bury Dag & Red Notts County Shrewsbury 50p = £84,000. Rrrr.

Quid on: Monaco v PSG Cologne v Schalke Fiorentina v Cagliari Siena v Roma Genoa v Napoli Deportivo v Malaga @ 65/1.

Am trying to but KingDawson keeps taking it off topic. Don't respond to him. Or if you're that bothered about his responses, conduct the 'conversation' over PM. Am chosing the "no response" option. Sorry about that guys. No because he's shite and Joe Cole will play there if fit. Joe Cole over Aarron Lennon? Lennon hasn't fully impressed me yet, because I don't know if he can keep up a level of consistency. But, he's had a good start to the season, but I wonder, if Spurs start to trail off a bit in the near future, how will Lennon respond? Does have the capabilities of lifting a team on a downer? When is Joe Cole back for Chelski? Physio Room says this Saturday but I'm not so sure, haven't heard much about him recently.
