  1. Draw for me. Loads of injuries. Brighton I guess. Dont see them going down
  2. Scored too early. Plenty of time for Leeds to turn their efforts up one notch and score a few goals now
  3. Had a combination of the best betting evening in a few years and also the worst ever. Best as I won about 850 quid across multiple bets Worst as I missed out on a crazy accumulator by one goal in the Jong PSV - NEC Breda game (had SPAL -1, Fenerbache -1, Arsenal -1, Hamburger -1, AC Milan -1 and over 2,5 goals in Jong Utrecht - Jong Ajax). That goal would have yielded 2200 quid.
  4. My thoughts exactly. Seems like a big part of the fanbase has stuck with their initial stance after PIF publically pulled out in the hope of getting some kind of bragging rights when the saga concludes. You dont get bragging rights for toxic negativity or irrational exuberance... There have been so many twists and turns to this saga that it should be impossible to be so categorically confident on any of the potential outcomes. Just be cautiously optimistic like the majority of the fanbase and stop arguing over any small development. Its tiresome and embarrassing.
  5. Put £10 on an acca today @75/1. Checked it now and all I needed was a Besiktas win. Game ended 2-2 and their opponent had only 2 shots on target
  6. Needed Man Utd to win by 2 for £450...
  7. Finally a good day making 350 profit on City-2 and City, Juve (+BTTS) and Barca. Covered my losses from betting against NUFC with handicaps the last 3 rounds
  8. Pardew for me. He had the best players to work with, but for some fucked up reason he decided to switch things around and settling on whatever yielded the worst results. For example going from an attacking 4-3-3 to a slow predictable 4-4-2 (playing Sissoko/Gosling/Gouffran/Cisse on the wings instead of HBA etc). I was always so disappointed to see the line-ups before games as there was so much potential going to waste. He was also content with micro-budgets every transfer window as he knew he could use that as an excuse down the line. This, in a period where player prices were almost doubling every year. Clubs who invested heavily in that period could really go to the next level, but we were left with players like Amalfitiano and loanees.
  9. FFS got Vardy © and Maddison on FPL + a few bets on us losing by at least 2. Not overly happy that was offside
  10. There are probably 50 000+ players who only care about getting the top score for each round, either by creating a new team so they can bench boost / 3x captain or by taking hits to create a new team. Its fkin annoying as youll only rarely see the top score of a "real" team
  11. FFS if Matip had waited 30 seconds to get off the pitch he would get the clean sheet
  12. what a fkin goal Great example that fuck all is being done on the training ground. Bruce just picks 11 players and tell them to play ball
  13. Anything less than 3-0 City will be really annoying. Usually we always do pretty well when I need us to lose big though Think it was under Pardew when we got beat 0-4 at home to Man Utd giving it an under the breath get in and clenched fist, in the stand, as it brought my -3 home. Was that the spring 2014? If so thats my worst betting memory. Think we had been beaten 4-0 two games in a row (Soton being one of those) before that game. I was 99% sure that trend would continue into the Man Utd game so an hour before the match I was going to place 10 pounds on 4-0 Man Utd an amazing 100/1 on bet365. I wasnt able to place the bet as my account wasnt verified (had been working fine up to that point) and I needed to send a picture of my passport. I decided to drop it as I didnt think it would be enough time to get it through. In the 2nd half my flatmate and I decided to go downtown for some drinks and I checked the scoreline just before entering the subway. It was 3-0 Man Utd with few minutes to go so I was hoping it would end that way. When we got off the subway my friend showed me it had ended 4-0 and I was gutted for days.
  14. Anything less than 3-0 City will be really annoying. Usually we always do pretty well when I need us to lose big though
  15. The way the defenders/keeper moved on the 2-2 goal.. Looked like a goal from football manager
  16. Looked like Fred was aiming for his arm
  17. Ah cheers. NUFC should be 5000/1 for me to entertain that
  18. What does odds outright mean? Like what kind of bet is that
  19. Many red cards in the recent gameweeks. Seems some players want extra time off for the holidays
  20. HBA has picked up an assist in the game vs Strasbourg. Thats 2 goals and 3 assists in 10 games for him
