Yes here it folks the eagerly waited return of my expert advice.
Bet of The Weekend[/u]
Newcastle to beat Bolton @ 11/10
I have come to accept that Newcastle are actually a very good team with an excelent team spirit and work ethic.
Now they are back to full strength and beginning to show their full potential and should have too much for a poor Bolton side.
Newcastle's victory was their first in 5 matches and Bolton have just won three on the spin so the less clued up members may be wondering why i'm so confident.
Bolton's three victories came against an awful wigan side, a fulham team who dominated them for 90 minutes (16 goal attempts to 5!) and against Everton who played as poorly as any team has ever played in the top flight.
Newcastle's winless streak only saw one (narrow) defeat and included the amazing comeback against Arsenall, tricky games to Fulham and blackburn and injury team equalisers agianst both Sunderland and Spurs.
This should be a comfortable victory.
---------------
searched the rest of the Prem and can't find much value tbh. Liverpool at odds against to beat a bad, bad WEst Ham team is a possibility. But the fact that Liverpool themselves are distinctly mediocre and will have played an extra game in midweek tempers enthusiasm somewhat.
Next Best[/u]
Bradford to beat Stockport @ 3/4[/u]
Bradford continue to underperform given their finances, and indeed, their players, but this is a perfectly acceptable price against a team so defensively awful they could be the French army (LMFAO).
Their victory against Wycombe gives a glimmer of what they're capable of, also they were reasonabl unlucky againt Chesterfield according to reports. Both teams, needless to say, are somewhat better than Stockport.
If Bradford play to their full potential - and they need to, for if Stockport were to win they would only be three points ahead of Stockport who currently lie in the relegation zone - it should be another comfortable victory.
Others[/u]
Lincoln to beat Barnet @ 11/5
Barnet have, almost unnoticed, slid to the bottom of the football league. Their main problem being an inability to find the onion bag, with just 4 goals in 8 games since they beat Bradford 3 nil.
They haven't being playing the big boys either, with only one of those games coming against a top 7 side.
Lincoln, on the other hand, have been in scintillating scoring form in 2011. The blank they drew at home to Chesterfield was their first for nearly three months.
They have lost three of their last ten games but they were all against the top 3 in the division and a trip to Barnet should hold no fears for The Imps.
Chesterfield to beat Morecambe @ 3/4
Again this is a perfectly acceptable price. Chesterfield have moved up a gear and should they maintain their recent form should dispose of Morecambe very easily. There is a wide discrepancy in the markets among the various bookies for this game with Chesterfield as low as 8/13 with some firms, which I believe to be a truer reflection of the gap between these two teams.
My £2 acca bet
Cardiff @ 19/10 Portsmouth @ 10/3 Bristol City @ 10/11 Swansea @ Evens Brighton @ 13/10 City @ 8/15 United @ 4/7 Bury @ 20/19
Got to come in sometime!
Good luck everybody!
I have searched the Premiership for a bit of value but I can;t see any. Liverpool to beat West Ham @ 5/4 might tempt me as WEst Ham really are a bad, bad side. Then again Liverpool are distinctly mediocre themselves so it's not that tempting tbh.

However i still think we could be value for a win, especially since Bolton have lost their last 6 away games in the prem, and our home form has slightly picked up despite letting the spurs game slip

i wouldn't have any of them in the first team.
Possibly an on-form Ireland, the rest wouldn't get close. That includes Shola and Taylor imo.
Thought Gosling was fit now anyway?

Post by morningglory on Feb 24, 2011 18:02:48 GMT
nah gosling came on for 90 secs against the mackems and has been injured since.
Ben Arfa would walk in the 1st team, S taylor would be close and Shola would probs start as well to be honest

Jonas has been improved the last month or so yeah, but i can see either him shifting onto the right, ben arfa playing on the left, and barton moving inside or maybe ben arfa playing off the forward. Yeah shola isnt the best, but he is above lovenkrands and best in the pecking order i reckon

Good league two picks tbh.
Barnet haven't slid to the bottom unnoticed, they've been there all season and are almost as bad as Stockport (who are the worrst professional side I have ever seen)
Its Peter Taylor's last game as Bradford manager and its a pound entry for Bantams fans so big crowd will pull them through. They are ridiculously defensive although should have enough to break the Hatters backline.
Chesterfield Morecambe should be obvious. I'm hoping they start wobbling again. Morecambe are generally quite good against the top sides however

Brighton have just cost me £1500. AS for my main bets, well just fuck the fuck off. Barnet scoring four for the first since Adam was a lad, some Geordie cunt being sent off for being a prick, Yorkshire knob heads unable to beat a nine man Stockport. Never see a poor bookie.

Bet of the Weekend[/u]
Manchester United to beat Liverpool @ 13//8
Excellent price even with the absence of Vidic and Rio. Suarez is already looking out of his depth and they don't have many other players who can cause damage. Gerrard will be well looked after by Fletcher. At t'other end, the on form Rooney should find plenty o chances.
the other...
Newcastle to beat Everton 2 @ 6/4 - everton's thin squad hit by injuries, not got a good record up there... with Saha fit we always have a chance though....
City & Arsenal to Wigan and Sunderalnd double - Easy
Aston Villa to beat Bolton @ 23//10- Keen to make amends after the debacle on WEds.. back to full strength, Bolton continue to be flattered by results.
My acca combined with the prem results above and one without. £1 on each.
Leeds to beat Doncaster @ 4/6] Forest to beat Hull @ 11/13 Huddersfield to beat Yeovil @ 13/8 Rotherham to beat Barnet @ 8/11 Morecambe to beat Southend @ 17/10 Millwall to beat Watford @ 9/4**
** Probably my best single of the day actually. Might have £10 on that.
