HIGHLIGHT of my night was completing my £25 to £250 challenge – lowlight was two low-stakes losers on the top tips.

On a night dominated by international friendlies and FA Cup first round replays I didn't put up much but having said there were plenty of goals about and well done everyone who posted winners.

Those included Greg whose overs series bet landed thanks to Spain's late show at Wembley and his goals bet on the Scottish Development League was also a winner.

My challenge needed a 1-9 winner and that's what I went with although Newport not to lose wasn't as straightforward as it should have been.

Tonight there is one FA Cup replay – Brackley v Gillingham – and Northern Ireland League Cup ties which someone might give us a steer on.

I've had a look at stats on the games and come up with a double – both to score at Brackley and over 2.5 goals at Glenavon v Cliftonville.

Brackley and Gillingham drew 2-2 at Priestfield and it could be another high scorer as the Gills' only clean sheet this season was against West Brom Academy in the EFL Trophy. National League North Brackley have netted eight goals in two games since the original tie and while they're playing at a lower level they've shown they can score.

I've seen plenty of tips on Brackley to win at 13-4 with Marathonbet. Three seasons ago they drew at Gillingham and won the replay and I may have a punt on them not to lose at 1-1 with Betway.

My second pick is taken purely on stats. Eleven of the last 13 meetings between Glenavon and Cliftonville have gone over 2.5 goals so I'm taken a chance on another high-scoring quarter-final.

Again I'm only doing this double because I'm in profit and if anyone with better knowledge of the Irish game reckons it will go under 2.5 goals please comment.

      I was looking forward to hearing the song John and have to say its pretty good. Come on everyone and buy this record. Help a great cause, make a few quid yourself and keep that x factor shite off the number 1 spot. You know it makes sense.

    Evening all, back to football, it as been brilliant week for me and my followers, having posting 3 tips over 2 England games, all have landed. We were the better team against Spain, and our counter attacking play was superb. Get Southgate appointed now.

    Tuesday’s Repost

    I don’t think this is a game to get involved in for big stakes, and for me a 2pt stake on BTTS is the way to go at 19/20 Hills.

    England – Spain BTTS 19/20 (2PTS) WON :-)

    I doubt I will be posting any tips on tonight’s card, but it isn’t just here I am tipping winners, check out my NFL tips on the sports thread. I wish everyone all the luck today with your punts.

    Anyone who had over 2.5 and btts in the TNS game should check their accounts. Bet 365 voided this bet . I had to contact livechat this morning to get them to sort it out. They said it was voided in line with their abandonment rules. Happily when I explained that the bet was won before the game was abandoned they agreed to pay out.

    Interesting game in Bulgaria that looks good for Over 2.5 Goals.

    Beroe v Ludogorets Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.8

    As we saw when Ludogorets played Arsenal they are capable of scoring plenty but very leaky in defence.

    10/11 Ludogorets games gone Over 3.5 Goals
    Conceded in 8/10 matches
    Ludogorets scored 36 goals in just 12 league games but let in 13.
    As for Beroe 3/4 gone BTTS

    Likely try small stakes also on:
    BTTS and Over 2.5 and Over 3.5

    Watched the Panama v Mexico last night 2am. Don’t quote me on this but if there was ever a game that was rigged to be a draw then this was it. You could see it in the players eyes Nothing more to be said about qualifying in this group which includes USA I believe.

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      Don’t know what the relevance is with USA. They lost 4-0 last night and to Mexico last week.

  19. HullShaker 7 years ago

    JAMALCO VS. MONTEGO BAY UNITED – just in and this one kicks off at 20.00 so no time to write up:

    BTTS…4/5

    Good luck with all bets ?

  20. HullShaker 7 years ago

    Just to reiterate Crane and Wax, the TNS game was called off due to fog late on (77th minute I think) with a scoreline of 2-2.

    Check your accounts and slips if on a goals-based bet and get in touch if not paid out.

    I contacted Coral last night and was told catergorically it was a loser, etc, etc. It was near midnight which is when their staff knock off so to be fair he maybe just wanted to get to the pub to meet his mates.

    Rang again this afternoon and trading team acknowledged the goals were all in before postponement and winnings duly funded into account.

    Moral of the story: always get a second opinion…especially from the bookies ?

    • wax 7 years ago

      I got paid out this morning after contacting them. They told me my bet was voided in line with their abandonment rules. Told me that any game abandoned will be voided except for those bets the outcome of which has already been determined at the time of abandonment. When I pointed out that my bet had actually came in before half time he agreed and got it sorted. Wasnt massive returns but I hate letting them away with anything.

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      That’s the norm – all bets already in when a game is abandoned should be settled.

    • HullShaker 7 years ago

      ?

  21. craneguy 7 years ago

    aye hull, always best tae contact them an check they’re good at takin it in but no always good at payin it back oot………..

  22. craneguy 7 years ago

    not very often a bet in northern Ireland but looks like I’ve picked the nite goals in short supply normally loads too…………

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      Been following the Glenavon game on twitter – lots of chances but no goals unlike the Brackley match.

    • dc john boy 7 years ago

      I’m waiting on warren point game to go over 2.5mgs but been a red card & currently nil nil so can’t see it happening now

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      1-0 Glenavon – 2 more goals needed.

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      1-1, let’s hope for a winner.

    Brackley
    Warrenpoint

    Both Over 2.5mgs Returns 6/4 **LOST** goal short in warren point game, ruined by a red card to home side

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      Same here – goal short at Glenavon. Should have done a btts double but stats said overs.

    • dc john boy 7 years ago

      H2H certainly suggested overs.

      Small stakes tho but never nice to lose

      Can’t wait for Friday for some real football again

  26. geoff50 7 years ago

    A couple of small punts on the games in ET.

    Gillingham/Cliftonville to win in ET double around 1.7/1
    Over 0.5 goals in both games double around 12/1

    • geoff50 7 years ago

      Odds the wrong way around sorry!

    • geoff50 7 years ago

      There’s a goal in the NI game, shame it went to Glenavon.

    • geoff50 7 years ago

      Well I got the goals I wanted to land that bet but unfortunately for the wrong teams. The other bet was pretty speculative.

  27. craneguy 7 years ago

    load of crap tonite not enough goals in NI should of stuck with brackley btts&overs would of been a nice 3/4

    WD all with winners………….. if any

    • dc john boy 7 years ago

      I was gona do brackley over 1.5tgs think it was 13/8, should have just stuck with it. Would have been in early doors to

    • HullShaker 7 years ago

      Yup, Jamaican bet was more brown stripe than red stripe ?

    • Mr Fixit 7 years ago

      I see Bury have binned Flitcroft. Move fast and you might get Southgate – leave it a bit and you could Strachan.

  28. craneguy 7 years ago

    a 3/4 wins far better than a 3/1 loss…………..
