^ If that happens I'll give you the money myself
(but tbh, it is probably more likely than some of mine)
I had one if those dreams were I seen the results
Saints to win at 8-1 is almost too good, really hoping we keep the role from battering Villa but Everton are a decent side (and we hardly ever go there and do well)
William hill for me, only because the site works consistently adding teams to an accumulator...

The first time I read that I thought you wrote 'Saints to win 8-1'!

i have been using betfred,i work for ladbrokes so cannot bet with them,there prices are too skinny for me anyways 
I have accounts with most major bookies and use www.oddschecker.com to find the best odds. It also lets you build your own accumulator and ranks the bookies with their cumulative odds for your selections, although I mostly bet singles.
It is really quite interesting seeing how much value you get from different bookies, as it fluctuates over time. This season, BetVictor seems by the far the best, with WillHill improved on the past and Ladbrokes also getting a few bets from me. Betfair is always worth considering of course. Those are the four main ones I've been using. Then a few other random bets elsewhere, for things like goalscorer markets there tends to be more variety. Bet365 have some decent promotions from time to time.
Last season I found Stan James very competitive, but they have gone off the boil of late.
If I had to choose one bookie I would use BetVictor but it is quite surprising the benefit from playing the field, you are probably talking increased winnings of at least 10% on average.
Been doing Corals £1 free bet booklet since start of the season, and this week is the turn of the Handicap coupon. The returns for my six selected teams are a little mad!
Newcastle -1 > Reading
Man City -1 > Fulham
Stoke -1 > Swansea
Huddersfield -1 > Watford
Brighton -1 > Birmingham
Celtic -1 > Motherwell

I hope so, but Birmingham got battered in their last game, so will probably keep it pretty tight. Brighton are playing well atm though. I will be going for a tight Brighton win.
I only really use Betfair now. Tend to use the cash out feature a fair bit.
Shame it wasn't Vertonghen
I am honestly not just saying this..... If there was decent reception at the Amex, I would have put a tenner on him, as I had it in my account from an earlier refund.
Would personally think a draw (3.45)
Both teams to score (1.82)
and Sam Allardyce to have a head resembling a swollen swede (1.01)
