Oh FFS! The one team I was waiting on, you could have called it nailed on. The away team were 12/1 to win! £1 to over £30 and all I needed was Chelsea to win.

G-MAN2004 · 3 Jan 2013 at 12:10

Same here. Useless.

Read on facebook on the official Skybet page that someone put £1 on Wright-phillips to score first and QPR to win 1-0. got 450-1 on it. :eek:

Nice one!

My bet for tonight:

~3/1

Sycho · 9 Jan 2013 at 15:12

I've gone with Real Madrid over 3.5 team total and Juventus vs Milan over 2.5 game total.

Kidge · 10 Jan 2013 at 20:45

Going to put an 8 fold on this weekend what do you reckon on the following:

Tottenham - qpr vs spurs
Southampton - villa vs saints
Swansea - everton vs swans
Draw - fulham vs wigan
Norwich - norwich vs newcastle
West Brom - reading vs west brom
Chelsea - stoke vs chelsea
Draw - sunderland vs west ham

Took the Newcastle advice I see

Stoke vs Chelsea will be a difficult one because Stoke have been generally amazing at home (against Saints was the only time they let in 3 in ages) and Chelsea are amazingly hit and miss, sometimes 8 are scored, sometimes they let in 3 and fail.

Sunderland will beat West Ham too... (they aren't bad and West Ham are over the run of their first few easy games)

Pighardia · 10 Jan 2013 at 22:29

Far too many favourites in there for me

... betting against too many teams that need a result

I don't know what I will do at the weekend...but what I do know is that it is classic Harry Redknapp to get a result against Spurs

pingwing · 10 Jan 2013 at 22:33

Yeah QPR to ruin the season and win against teams they should get a hiding from is quite likely

Though I am for Saints to beat Villa, no matter how much they need a result I think it will be Lamberts last game (or at least "you're going to be sacked soon" calling).

Ruining the 10/1 I got on Pards being the next manager sacked

HangTime · 10 Jan 2013 at 22:41

Can't see Pardew being next to be sacked as he has 7.5 years left on his deal so virtually unsackable from a financial perspective.

As for the above acca I'm not sure about Swansea to beat Everton as they only played on Wednesday night so not much time to prepare/recover for a Saturday 3pm game (Everton have an extra 2 days rest). Then again that is probably reflected in the odds to some extent (Swansea are widely available at 5/1).

In theory yes but I have a whole quid riding he'll be next sacked as expectations are miles out of performances so far.

At a guess I would expect Ashley to have a clause that lets him fire him for a decent amount instead of 8 years and a billion quid to just go away... Hopefully

Yeah cheers!. Also took a quick look at the table and hadn't realised how well Norwich are doing, plus the fact they're at home

Will also take up your advise on Sunderland but on a second list. I'll go for my originally posted one and then do a second list as well including Sunderland win and Everton win.

Good shout, think I've put too much faith in Swansea to win against Everton away from home haha
