FIXTURE cards will become easier as the season progresses and already we're seeing some form trends.
It's still early days though and I wouldn't advise anyone tackle more than two or three of my top tips while the shop tips are for speculative gambles and to be played for loose change.
One guy criticised me for not getting the draws up last week but I don't expect them to win. A treble would be wonderful, a double passable and I only post them because I'm asked to. Don't stake any more than £1 unit stakes on the Yankees.
The tips to judge me on are the top tips and here they are. I'll post separate previews covering some of my selections. I most cases Betfred prices are quoted – in today's Daily Record you will see the best available odds at time of publication

Here we go again, wish you all lucky.
Good shout with Peterhead, I fancied them ante post to be Dunfermlines main challengers for the title, the bookies had Morton down as 2nd favs. For me Morton will be firmly mid-table.
One of the few grounds I’ve never been to is Peterhead but they seem to be turning it into a fortress. Good shout!
ChTheScot, it’s only a good shout if they win!
s
hard lines as usual southampton could not score ah well maybe next week
Like the look of those 5 homes, might put a tenner on it at 14/1, I already have backed a double of Chelsea and Southampton as my main bet of the day. Good Luck Everyone!
It’s gotta be a simple 3-0 Chelsea. Simples
Before I turn in are you serious about McCoist or on the wind up Mr F? I’m finding that one seriously hard to believe, what are the odds on that 100/1?
ChTheScot, it’s being reported that Palace are considering him for their shortlist but it would be a huge surprise to me if he got the job.
Mr F, may I ask why you’re taking Chelsea at 1/4 when to win to nil is at evens? Not questioning you, just a wonder (I’m not a fan of backing that kind of thing myself.)
Jack, because it’s on a treble and in 5 homes. And anyway while I don’t think they’ll concede they could so the win is less risky. They did of course concede at Burnley which was unexpected.
Yes, I figured that was the reason but I just wanted to know if you knew something I’d missed! Any winner is better than no winner. Again this may be something for you/others to look at further by 1st half being the most goals is decent at 2/1. Leicester will defend deep but if Chelsea get an early goal or two Mourinho will shut up shop.
No time for write ups sorry gents but here’s my thoughts on tomorrow’s card!
Rangers over 2.5 team goals 8/11 ( NAP )
Swindon, Aberdeen, Wigan, Dunfermline to WIN
Over 2.5 goals:
Port Vale v Notts county
Swindon v Crewe
Ayr v Forfar
Yeovil v Scubthorpe
Derby v Fulham
Going against your beloved Saints again Greg? I hope that line comes in! Ha. Hopefully we’re in for a good match today.
Not staking much in the opening few weeks of the season until we see how teams are performing. Today I’m on a treble, with a couple of other smaller stake acca’s which are worth a couple of quid
Swansea
Hearts
QOS
Treble returns 9/2
Add Dundee Utd & Afc Wimbledon for 16/1
Add Wigan & Bristol City for 56/1
And add Newcastle for 176/1
If any one kind find odds for tim sherwood to be next swindon manager . It’s worth backing it as I have it on reasonably good authority that this will be happening along with les Ferdinand as assistant
Danny T, probably won’t get the bet if it’s happening. I know Sherwood ruled himself out the Palace job though. Pulis odds of a return being cut too but surely not.
Cheers mr f . I try odds checker and google but to no avail
Maybe its only me (and BeardedGeordie) but the fact Newcastle are drifting is beyond me. I’m not saying they’ll win, but who’s seriously back Villa at home especially against an improved Newcastle side?
Jack, I’m on the draw. Villa look less vulnerable than last season and maybe the arrival of Keane has had an effect. Were pretty decent at Stoke last week.
Jack I disagree. I think Aston Villa could easily beat Newcastle with Philippe Senderos and Joe Cole the latest signings. Judging by Senderos performance last week he could be a surprise package as he done very well alongside the wall Ron Vlaar. Darren Bent and Benteke could easily score 2 or more if in the mood.
Understandable to be on the draw Mr F. Talking of the Palace job I noticed the shortening on Pulis, I just hope we don’t lose Drummy as much as I’d be happy for him.
Cooldude, I’m not saying they don’t looking better, but to say Villa could easily score 2 or more at home is a big statement. I’m not saying they can’t but they managed it last season vs City, Hull, Norwich, Cardiff and WBA. I really can’t see them winning, with everything going on around me, maybe I’m mad.
Jack, everyone has their opinion but I think Villa are stronger this season.
Jack, for past few years i’ve hated watching Villa. And always just stayed up too, wishing they just go down. Boring boring team. (No offence to villa fans)
cooldude, they’re definitely more solid and less likely to chuck in goals. Have been poor at home to course but this game will shed some light. Right, I’m off.
Signing “hasbeens” isn’t the way to stay up. Beware Villa, its going to be a hard season. Oh, and as for Chelsea, careful.. Leicester team spirit is high and they will be no 3-0,4-0,s ! (says the Leisceter fan )
Spenny agree don’t think Cole was a good signing for VILLA and don’t think Chelsea should have took back Drogba.Spirit may be high at LEICESTER but cant see them getting anything at the Bridge today this Chelsea team looks strong with a lot of options.
No, I agree, I don’t see a 4-0 either. Even if we get an early goal, I’d still call it only being 2-0. The longer you can hold on though you never know!
Good luck for the season ahead.
GARY BUSEY FOR CBB CHAMP 5/1 – Somebody mentioned this and if he stays in he’s a great price, he’ll probably walk or get flung out by BB becuase, let’s be serious, he shouldn’t be in there. Him or the guy gogglebox will win and if that Maloney wins I’ll be shocked!!
Anyway SUPER SINGLE ICT OVER 4.5 TEAM CORNERS EVENS, Celtic never get an easy time up there and with a crucial CL qualifier midwk bug Ronny’s no gonna take any chances
Gary, he’ll stay in because of the public but surely he can’t win!? I’d rather take Kellie at that price
True, been backing my team heavily from day one, as a pars fan I’m used to disappointment but if we don’t do Airdrie over tomorrow I’m giving up.
Atlante match- over 1.5 mg 8/13 over 0.5 FHG 1/1- smaller bet
**** I’ve just watched it the now by the way *** :)
Monarcas match- BTTS 5/6 & over 2.5 mg 11/10- smaller bet
Liga De Loja match- BTTS 4/5 & over 2.5 mg 1/1- smaller bet
BTTS DOUBLE- 2.29/1
Could be worse for Palace, Neil Lennon could get the job ahead of McCoist!
Haven’t checked the prices but Pulis comes across as being too proud and principled to go back, for me Martin Jol looks a fair shout.
I backed Jol at 10/1 after someone mentioned him…(can’t remember who) and Drummy, he came from out of nowhere but has done a fantastic job at Chelsea, perhaps will use him to get hold of Chalobah and Bamford. Could even shock everyone and get van Ginkel…
Judging on draws is just ridiculous. We all know it’s a long shot but still appreciate your tips being put up. If you were to stop then people would also moan. What I want to know is does anyone else do a straight 4fold on the draws. Just to show people how profitable draws are I’m going to show people that all it takes is for one 4fold a season for a very healthy profit. Mr Fixit gets at least one up per year and you don’t need to be a maths expert to show that it worth it in the long run. Just look at it like a long term investment. I personally stick £30 on the draws. It used to be £20 but now I bet £30. The bet returns well over £4k. Let’s just say 50 weeks of betting on draws will cost £1500. One return per year will pay a minimum of £4k so according to my calculations that’s a profit of at least £2.5k
I don’t like betting on draws, as I like the fun element of betting too and to be honest, who cheers on a draw!? But I did one tonight with 3 draws and it was 70/1…and they were in no way ridiculous, you get overpriced odds on draws because less people bet on them maybe?
Chris, I prefer the Yankee or 3 from 4. I usually get the fourfold up once a season but absolutely no guarantee it will happen. Goodnight all.
Chris, big fan of yours, but following lines like that is like putting a lottery line on and not being able to stop in case it comes in. Appreciated it’s all a gamble but that bet may not come in for years. Guaranteed week you miss BOOM!
I use to a £1 four fold on the draws sometimes use to get over 130/1 had it come in a couple of times a season ,definately worth doing as a fun bet
Shaun Tanner,
Here is the line-up for the Dallas match
FC Dallas Starting XI: Fernandez, Benitez, Hedges, Loyd, Watson, Michel, Ulloa, Castillo, Escobar, Perez, Akindele
Bench: Sanchez, Acosta, Cabrera, Luccin, Hollingshead, Garcia,
Salt Lake starting XI ; Rimando, Beltran, Borchers, Schuler, Wingert, Beckerman, Mulholland, Grabavoy, Gil, Plata, Findley
I hope it helps you with your scorer bets I got it from FC Dallas twitter
I know there’s no guarantee Paul but I’m more than happy to take the risk. Just keeping backing the draws until I get a winner.
Chris, can totally understand your call mate. You may only get one a season but its totally worth it as draws are over-priced. I used to do it with out of form-ish Championship/League One teams. Lost a lot of cash last season but then had a 90/1 and a 64/1 winner in one weekend haha. Not that I’d recommend it.
Chris, Mr f has to factor in not everyone betting balance is large enough for those bets although as you say money can be made if just 1 lands
Chris, you are the man that has won many of us plenty on this Bet365 risk free in-play bet. I eagerly await your inplay bet mate, you value finds are brilliant
Icasa match- BTTS 4/5
Dallas match- BTTS 4/6
BTTS DOUBLE 1.99/1
NICE 1
With 3 or 4 selections being minimum 1/1 you can’t go wrong with perming them. All you need is 2 to get your money back, 3 for a little profit or all 4 for a healthy win.
Don’t usually back draws but take 4 teams min that the bookies can’t split and perm them every week.
Tomorrow it’s Arsenal, Motherwell, Seville and Burton.
You’re maths do make sense though but it could end up as a massive outlay on the premise that eventually you’ll get 4 from 4, a bit risky but he who dares deserves a few K’s return
ChTheScot, good luck for tomorrow pal, Sevilla and Arsenal draws I’m backing tomorrow :)
FC Dallas v Real Salt Lake 2am
Castillo anytime scorer 15/8- main bet
Smaller bets on Castillo first TEAM goal 10/3 and Plata (RSL) anytime scorer 3/1.
Sods law means they’ll both probably lose now lol
Blancos- thanks for taking the time out to get the teams up mate, much appreciated, :)
Shaun,
I have Michel anytime @ 7.00. I have never bet Castillo although he sure has beat my first scorer a few times. I have also taken Dallas/BTTS @ 4.00
My Pleasure, the least I can do for you, considering the amount of time you spend researching the stats.
Easy cover now in the first BTTS double posted, Loja match- BTTS NO 13/8- small bet.
Shaun, a player I rate highly in MLS is Portland Timbers Darlington Nagbe. For an attacking midfielder you could argue the 17 goals he scored from 117 appearances is not great but theres no denying his flair and ability on the ball. Just seen a documentary of him on youtube and his wife is almost as good as his football skills.
Blancos- Dallas have been in good form at home and in general but it must be noted their home fixtures have been very kind recently. Saying that weaker teams than RSL (in my opinion) have breached their defence recently. RSL do all their good work at home but their away record isn’t the worst. Recent form however hasn’t been good on their travels but I still feel they have enough up front to nick a goal here.
I agree with you, I just feel that Dallas has a momentum going at the moment that can cope with conceding a goal in this match. But on paper everything seems plausible. then within a spit second all my theories can turn to dust. Fingers crossed.
I did your BTTS double inc. Dallas
cooldude- Nagbe is highly thought of at Portland from what I can gather. He’s a great box to box midfielder and while he’s not prolific in front of goal his golscoring record has improved gradually over the past 3 seasons. He’s still young as well, just turned 24.
Shaun, did you see the spectacular volley he scored that earned him goal of the season? Either way I would love to see him play in England whether it’s for a championship team or league 1!!
Yeah the one against Kansas, he’s scored a few nice ones over the past couple of seasons.
He could definitely play at Championship level I’d say, I could see him at a team like Middlesbrough.
Atlante match- over 1.5 mg 8/13 over 0.5 FHG 1/1- smaller bet
8/13 WINNER!!!
1/1 WINNER!!!
Atlante match- over 2.5 match goals 5/6- small bet.
Good win Shaun, where is Harpreet when you need a Boom
Shaun,
what are your thoughts about Alberto Moreno signing for your team?
Your Atlante tip took LESS than 4 minutes to come in !!
Atlante match- over 2.5 match goals 5/6- small bet.
5/6 WINNER!!!
At the back end of last season I started 2 series bets (Over 1.5 Team Goals and Over 2.5 Match Goals), following the success of Greg’s series. I’ve decided to have another crack at it starting today.
Over 1.5 Team Goals
Single – AFC Wimbledon 1/1
Double
+ Nott’m Forest 5/6
Pays 2.67/1
Treble
+Shrewsbury 6/4
Pays 8.17/1
Over 2.5 Match Goals
Single – MK Dons/Coventry 8/11
Double
+ Wolves/Cardiff
Pays 2.45/1
I’m also doing small stakes on a 4 fold (Minus Shrewsbury Town Over 1.5) which pays 11.67/1, and then loose change on the full 5 fold (30.67/1)
I’ve also looked at a couple of away wins, but haven’t been able to look at odds yet (access blocked at work), so not sure if I’m doing them as singles and doubles or just a double:
Morecambe
Shrewsbury
I’ll also be on my usual 10 fold BTTS for BetFred‘s Goals Galore Bonus (300/1 so its worth a crack), plus Greg’s, Raal’s and The Chief’s selections.
Best of luck with whatever you’re on.
Liga De Loja match- Loja to win 4/1- small bet.
Blancos- in all honesty I really haven’t seen enough of him to give my judgement, he played under 50 games in total for Sevilla so would like to see how he copes with the demands of the PL and the physical aspect as he’s only a small guy, I’d say a player with potential but jury’s still out for me.
I am off to bed. Good luck with the rest of your bets Shaun and anyone else still up.
Thanks for the great tips as usual Shaun.
No worries mate. Good night to you. :)
Moreno is adored by Sevilla fans and will be sorely missed. He has an amazing turn of speed, coupled with being tactically astute. He will become an asset for Liverpool. He senses when to attack & when to defend.
Well if thats the case I’m a happy man right now and the 12 million could well end up being a bit of a bargain, :)
Chelsea
Brentford
Wigan
Watford
Preston
8.8/1 5fold
Best of luck to everyone.
Monarcas match- BTTS 5/6 & over 2.5 mg 11/10- smaller bet
Liga De Loja match- BTTS 4/5 & over 2.5 mg 1/1- smaller bet
BTTS DOUBLE- 2.29/1
5/6 WINNER!!!
11/10 WINNER!!!
4/5 WINNER!!!

Hi
Paul
bonkers bet – correct score
odds with 138.com
st johnstone 0 – 2 aberdeen
17/2
That is if you are doing the contest as I could not see it on your site
Alan, admin deal with the contests so the only place to put entries is on the correct thread. This won’t get picked up when they’re being checked.
Hi Paul
Thanks for letting me know
Unfortunately when I went on to your site on saturday morning bonkers bet was not showing at that time
Would it be possible to have the bonkers bet on the site before Saturday morning
Reason for asking is not always able to access online
Alan, I don’t do it and admin I know put it on as soon as possible.
My six draw bet is on for today. 20 trebles and one £1 ACCA. Three up makes a profit and my draws for today are Palace, Ipswich, derby, forest, Wolves, Huddersfield. Three up in midweek and the others were 1-0s! Villa were my alternative choice.
I always do 5 or 6 draws either in 10x trebles or 20x trebles with £1 stakes. As you say, a treble gives a high percentage profit and you can still have have 3 or 4 losers and still get a profitable return. Example for me was Wednesday’s games. I did 10x £1 trebles on 5 draws and only Lille and Fulham stopped me from getting over £400 instead of just under £40.
Good luck.
Teams start level and certain teams hardly ever score more than one goal (not mentioning anyone but Stoke- Sunderland- C Palace, Northern Ireland etc). These are the boys to look out for when they play other dull teams. My treble in midweek was on the MR/btts coupon and paid £47 with the other two finishing 1-0. I just picked five matches I thought would finish 1-1 or 2-2. Draws are the way to go and as someone said the bookies usually overprice them- apart from William Hill 19/10 indeed!
Thanx mrfixits today looks a good day my selection for today .
Chelsea-win
zenit-win
salzburg-over
steau b-win
Rangers-win.
Good day lads.
Good morning guys…
Hope your all well Not much of a surprise with Real Madrid going out for me last night…I think they were poor.
Anyway. ..That’s a done deal so moving on hey. Yesterday was another BTTS BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM for me and I really do hope u guys got on – ££££
I will he very busy today. No tips will be posted by me as I’m of to York races. My mates stag and whole bunch of 20 of us are going wearing HAWAIN SHIRTS. The shirts wasn’t my idea by the way.
Will be home late so will jump on what u guys post if I can.
Good luck all for today – Have a brilliant day. I will be checking the horse tips on Mr Fix it’s horse racing page hoping for a YORK BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM lol
Good luck
I have decided to attempt to instil some much needed discipline into my Saturday betting. To cut down from placing numerous singles and accumulators, not forgetting tweaking other tips that always seem dead certs at the time.
Usually I come online after lunchtime with 4 or 5 bets in my head, only to come on here and see 12 varying types of bets which, on paper are all rich pickings. Alas come 5.45 I have approximately 10 winning teams to my credit, only to notice that my account is still down or only showing a modest increase. That is because often the 10 winners are accompanied by 7 or 8 losing teams.
This is my only football bet until later this evening.
DERBY V FULHAM @ 1.80
MIDDLESBROUGH V SHEFFIELD 1.95
PRESTON V OLDHAM @ 1.65
Treble @ 5.80
Good luck to anyone who follows this tip and to everyone for their Saturday foray.
3 HOME WINS @ 5.80
I don’t understand what it means or how to perm the bets.
georgeb1984, it’s very simple. Google permutations and give yourself a lesson.
like the look of todays tips mr f especially the aways
two that stand out for me are Portsmouth who you’ve tipped & Wimbledon against a poor Hartlepool who cant buy a goal (they scored in the cup v port vale who always concede)think 10/11 is a great price
did you look at them?
double pays 7/2
geesaclue, I mentioned Wimbledon in my English preview. They were close to being the Super Single.
Bern playing it v cautiously since start of the season but still losing due to silly results. Today it stops.
Acca – chelsea over 1.5 team goals, southampton, millwall, rangers over 1.5 team goals. Just under 5/1.
What’s people think of this for a strong treble? Swansea, Southampton and watford all to win just over 4/1? Any better suggestions?
Big Col I’m with you on your shout!
any reason for leaving qos out off the 5 homes mr f?
you have them in the top treble
geesaclue, QoS are just under evens so they’re not a banker bet. But they’ve been playing well and I wouldn’t read to much into their cup defeat by Livi at the start of the season or Livi’s win against Hearts reserves in midweek. If you ever doubt a team don’t bet on them.
thanks mr f wish we could find bankers every week!!!
First post on here after looking at this site most days during the football season. I usually do a couple of ambitous accas when there’s a decent amount of games but i prefer looking for value in play. Will be looking at red bull, barca and real matches in play hoping to back them to score 3 or 4 or more at decent prices. My two accas are derby millwall orient swindon wimbledon homes and palace hull wolves draws. Good luck all.
Good morning lads :)
I’m looking for 4 or 5 score & win predictions for today. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
matt i like the look of celtic, southampton, partick and millwall for a result and btts.
Bets for today
Stranraer win and BTTS 10/3
BTTS double Stranraer & Port Vale
W/W singles and double Berwick & Swindon
Madness bet (0nly £4 to £30,000)Trixie & singles
H/T L/W Ipswich, Birmingham & Wimbledon
Good luck for the day…..
Looking at doing a ‘double chance’ coupon today. In people’s experiences, is it worth it as I’m looking at around 4 home favourites to avoid defeat for even money?
Morning guys, I like the look of millwall today, good start to campaign, good manager, good squad too. Rotherham, shaky start and dodgy away. H2h favours millwall although not played for years. 21/20, good super single contender!!!
5/6 btts ict v Celtic with skybet.
Price seems big given how Celtic struggled last year after European midweek matches. Early kick off today also doesn’t help tired legs and minds at the back.
tam, your btts should be helped by the news Ambrose is starting.
Irish league expert treble today Linfield,ballymena and cliftonville
Super single arsenal 13/8 skybet
Neil Lennon will be new PALACE manager by end of week 4/5 now
Alan, I hope not or my golf club will lose a member!
My tips for today
Atalanta
Jablonec
Ulsan hyundai
Benfica B all To win
Unproven at the highest level, his experience at managing a club (much bigger than palace) at the highest level and on a tight budget is precisely what palace are looking for. Lennon had fantastic scouting staff and attracted some great buys that have since gone on to better things and I think he would be perfect for palace.
Especially now so many have ruled themselves out! He deserves a chance in the premiership and I think he would be fantastic there. Just a shame it couldn’t be with Celtic!
Thanks James, might have a wee go with them. Cheers mate
matt with b365 it comes in at 208/1
Anybody following the Western Australia Premier League, it just went 5 from 5 both to score. Not big odds but paid just under 3/1.
Derby,millwall,hearts and az anythoughts 15.49/1
Super single Arsenal and btts 7-1 with ladbrokes until first goal in villa-Newcastle game
Hi
your tips are similar to mine but a slight diffrence
Chelsea
Swansea
Middlesbrough
QOS
Dundee United
8.63/1
DON, I like Middlesbrough but prefer Watford – hopefully both will win.
Valerenga to win and Over 2.5 Goals (17/10)
I was going to take the Win and BTTS (Brann should score) but this is safer and Betway have this overpriced in my opinion – the Win and BTTS is 15/8.
Valerenga have only failed to score 2 or more goals on one occasion at home this season and Brann have netted in all but one of their away games. 5 out of 6 of the most recent H2H have seen over 2.5 goals with Valerenga winning 4 of them.
Any 1st goalscorer tips?
LFCCRAZY, there are some on the end of the English preview.
I normally do a write up regarding Leeds United but to be frank… I can’t see anything else other than a lose today.
*Watford Win*
Everton game-BTTS & draw-10/3 Lads.& Boylesp.Find another draw with Everton game & you have a 10/1 dble.
I’ve lost a lot throughout the week going for a high stake 5/6 fold would like any advice if I should avoid any of the teams
Swansea
Wigan
Dundee utd
Fleet wood
Dortmund vs Leverkusen o 2.5
grumpy, you shouldn’t so high-stakes sixfolds. If you have are staking big make it trebles maximum.
For small interest
JEONBUK MOTORS VS. SEOUL
BTTS
11/10 (WilliamHill)
bravo
Meant to add Palermo as well
Yokohama M.-Kawasaki BTTS single
Nagoya-Kashiwa BTTS single
seems that these are the only two games where there will not be BTTS in j-league
What a plonker am I
Hi all big fan of the site (but don’t tip) just a question for the scottish scholars! How are celtic away from home, should they beat Inverness? I have put them in a treble with two other winners and the generous odds of 1-2 for by far the best team in the spl seemed to good to pass up.
Question is , I guess, will they win lol?
Cheers for any replies
Solomon
Ps anyone’s opinion will be greatly appreciated!
Solomon, Greg has answered you and agree with him. At full strength Celtic would almost certainly win but they’re playing a weakened side without the likes of Gordon, Johansen, Berget, Stokes and McGregor so plenty of changes from the Maribor match. They can still win but it won’t be easy and remember Inverness have started the season well and lead the table.
Raal great stuff down under sir!
Solomon, they should win and even with a reserve team id expect them to do the business but it will be a close match!
Greg, Celtic’s team is close to what was expected – loads of changes but all regular first teamers except Zaluska and McConnell. As you say it should be close.
Al enjoy your trip to the shire mate :)
I donfancy you to beat us , we only seem to win the big games against you, haha! Decent price for the dons and will be roared on by 3000 reds!
Should be a great atmosphere!
Ha, was about time you beat us in a cup tie to be fair! Think it’ll be a close game, fancy us to nick it 2-1 which would do me nicely!
Was in the club shop this morning on the way down and we’ve sold around 2700 with just under 500 pay at the gate, which I’m sure we’ll sell. Enjoy the game mate, hopefully you and Mr F have a successful day, which will mean a Dons win! Ha
Danske Bank Irish Footy Predictions:
Dungannon v Ballymena…Away win @ 8/5
Close game on the cards expected today with early pace setters Ballymena topping the table after 2 wins and a draw,BTTS is a definate in this one as has happened in last 6 meetings and 12 of last 13,Away side welcome back Tony Kane and Gary Thompson after serving suspensions…Prediction 1-2
Cliftonville v Glenavon…Home win @ 8/15
Cliftonville are a side i always perm into any trebles or 4folds and they very rarely let me down,My faves for the title this season should have no problems dealing with a Glenavon side they have scored 5 against in each of last 2 meetings,this side usually score for fun and very rarely concede as can be seen in keeping 6 clean sheets in last 7 premiership homes,given the stats the value bet is Cliftonville to win on a -1 handicap @ 13/10
GOOD LUCK.
After last weeks success in getting four from five of a MR+BTTS bet, I’ll be on these today.
Chelsea (2/1) Bournemouth (9/2) Forest (11/4) Hearts (13/5) Malmo (21/10)
I do: 10 x 30p trebles + 5 x 30p fourfolds & a 50p acca. (£5 total stake)
WOLVES V CARDIFF
MK DONS V COVENTRY
BTTS DOUBLE PAYS AROUND 2/1
Hi Raal is that your main bet for today because I have a dedicated account for your bets and just wanted to know before i place thanks mate
Dee, that is it for this afternoon mate but will post another btts tonight from South America and other far off shores :)
Comon Renners keep the faith! MOT!
….but yeah, probably a hiding :(
C’mon the Mighty Whites :)
raaljaca, enjoy your game – I don’t have one today. Sorry about the song but if I leave it up you know what will happen – we’ll get more songs than tips.
PS. If you’ve bought a Record today check out the restaurant review – The Jambo Grill in Falkirk. Apparently they tried to open it in Easter Road!
Will have a look at that Mr F. No problem with the song as I had sang it twice at the top of my voice as the pup howled along!
Just back off holiday here’s my btts double for today Southampton v West Bromwich Albion and Bury v Plymouth Argyle. Raaljaca thanks for Hearts tip last week all proceeds handed back temporarily of course to Ladbrokes on Hearts to win the Championship!! Once again many thanks and good luck.
Excellent reinvestment Wednesbury mate :) clock is ticking on Rangers, watch this space ;)
Cheers Greg, nice to have a view from one of the best ;) just wanted some reassurance i guess lol.
“@celticfc: Celtic team to play @ICTFC Zaluska; Ambrose, O’Connell, Mulgrew, Twardzik; Henderson, Bitton, McGeouch; Griffiths, Commons, Pukki”
OVER 4.5 ICT CORNERS EVENS @BET365
Craig, just back in. It’s obviously well short of their strongest but should still get the job done. A few players with something to prove including Commons. Going to watch the game in the pub so will take Commons to score first for a bit of interest.
A treble for me today
RB Salzburg -2
Rangers -1
Chelsea
Also on Raal’s BTTS Double
Keeping the amount of bets I do to a minimum now, learning that too many bets = lost profit (better late than never I suppose)
:-)
Ral is this just a guess from you or do you have a high up position at ibrox mate
Not a guess Tony mate but a very good friend of mine was once your Chief Executive and also bought Dundee sometime later. September 1st is D-Day mate for loan repayments. You have no worries as you will soon become a Jambo ;)
What about derby to beat Fulham mr F ? Fulham have been woeful so far
Kev mcc, Derby haven’t been much better and according to their fan Nathan they were woeful in midweek.
INVERNESS VS CELTIC TIPS
Time for big Efe Ambrose to get on the scoresheet. This may be a tight game for Celtic but they should get plenty of opportunities with set pieces. Back Efe Ambrose to score first goal and anytime.
Recommended Bets:
Efe Ambrose First Goalscorer @ 33/1 various
Efe Ambrose to score anytime @ 12/1 various
Good luck everyone
Chris, thought you’d have tried Mulgrew or Biton but good luck anyway. Right off to watch it.
Free Saturday Mr F?
Greg, yep. We had a friendly but it’s been called off then league starts next weekend. Going for a pub lunch and will watch the Celtic game then head back to keep an eye on the scores. I see we’re both on the Dons so I don’t know if you’ll enjoy your match.

Bye
Some thought’s for today:
France:
*Reims – Caen BTTS @1,87 looks interesting, but since Caen’s top scorer Duhamel (2/4) is absent, I would advise against it.
*Bordeaux to win at Nice@2,35 may be something to think about, especially after their 4-1 win against Monaco, but Nice is not bad either.
*Lille at home to Lorient @1,75 is probably the safest bet coming from France today, as they will be eager to get the three points at home after their unconvincing season debut.
In Belgium, ZULTE – MOESKROEN BTTS @ 1.78. ZULTE (F5 A6) has scored in every game since May last year, MOESKROEN (F9 A7) scored 5 last week against Standard and 1 in Anderlecht.
In Russia, ZENIT to win to nil against AMKAR PERM @1.83 is tempting since Amkar has scored only one goal in seven games.
Best of luck!
Mr f, what are your thoughts on derby at home to Fulham today? 8/11 seems a decent price? Apologies if you’ve already mentioned this in previous comments but using old phone so what I can see is limited!
frago, I’m not betting on it. Derby should win but both sides are off the boil.
Arsenal wigan double lump on
Ral a hope not mate but we will soon c. Not a chance of me supporting hearts only when yous play hibs or Celtic, hope that is good enough mate
That will do fine Tony mate
im putin a score on newcastle @2-1 keanes a tool and villa are poor
Celtic Zaluska; Ambrose, O’Connell, Mulgrew, Twardzik; Henderson, Bitton, McGeouch; Griffiths, Commons, Pukki
Subs: Fasan, Stokes, Berget, Denayer, Johansen, Kayal, McGregor
daz, what’s that 9 or 10 changes from the Maribor game? It’s hard to figure out if Celtic will be bad or brilliant. They have not surprisingly drifted in the betting with McBookie now 3-4 for anyone who fancies them. Going to watch it with Commons to score first at 9-2 with bet365 and Billy Mckay to net at any time at 11-4 with Betfred my main bets. With a makeshift defence over 2.5 goals is also likely.
Aberdeen aswell mate don’t like that shower of ****
No one does Tony.
Celtic game BTTS evens @ Betway.Half/full-time draw/Celtic 4/1 @ Hills.Small interest.

NAP
Conference Premier
Nuneaton Town v Barnet
I liked Barnet in pretty much every game after the appointment of Martin ‘Mad Dog’ Allen at the end of last season, and they started this season brilliantly. Nobody can explain what happened last week when they lost 2-1 at home to Lincoln, who are decent. However, despite not showing up for the first half, they fought back from 2-0 at half-time and, by all accounts, were unlucky not to at least equalise. All the noises from Allen and the team are positive and focused, and I think we can trust them to get back to winning ways at Nuneaton. Nuneaton have one point from their three games so far, and, worse, haven’t scored a goal yet. Nuneaton boss Brian Reid has brought in three players, one a 6’5” defensive midfielder, Exodus Geohaghon, whose long throws are better than corners, plus a winger and striker, both former loanees, because as Reid points out: “We need to get goals, as that is how you win games.” Logical, no doubt, but that kind of throwing everything at the wall to see if it sticks method seems unlikely to be a match for a motivated Barnet side, itching to put right last weekend’s blip.
Barnet are 11/10.
NB
Conference South
Havant & Waterlooville v Staines
Staines finished last season like a train, coming from low midtable/flirting with relegation to finish a respectable 8th. In their 13 games from the 10th March to the end of the season, they won 8, drew 3 and only lost 2. It’s worth noting they didn’t win a single away game before Christmas, but won 4 of their last 5 aways – including at Havant & Waterlooville, who they beat 2-0 in March (before beating them again a fortnight later 1-0 in their rescheduled home tie). They’ve started the new season in good form, winning two and only losing one of their first three. Last week, they beat Boreham Wood, currently third, who had been F8 A0 in their two previous games. Manager Marcus Gayle says in the Non League Paper that he’s starting to see from the team what he’s been looking for, and his im is to at least establish Staines as one of the big boys of this league. (He says ‘a Goliath’ of the league – a tad unfortunate as we all know what happened to Goliath.) Meamwhile H&W, who finished last season 6th, have no points from their three games. They’re F1 A5. Their boss, Lee Bradbury, points out that these three games have been against the three best teams in the league – Bromley, Sutton and Ebbsfleet – three definite Goliaths – but a losing run is a losing run, and one goal in three games isn’t confidence-inspiring.
Staines at 21/10 look a seriously tempting shout.
. . .
OVER 2.5 DOUBLE
Conference North
Gloucester City v Hednesford
Gloucester have scored and conceded in all their games so far – three games in, they’re F6 A7. Hednesford started with a 0-1 defeat, but they’re F4 A4 in their last two games. These teams played twice last year. Two home wins: 5-1 and 4-1. Gloucester were F36 A34 in 21 home games (avg 3.33 goals per game) Hednesford were F32 A33 in 20 away games – don’t ask why they only played 20 away – in any case, that’s an average of 3.25 per away game.
Over 2.5 is 3/5
Southern Premier League
Cirencester v Dunstable Town
Two teams that are good for scoring and conceding, both played 4. Cirencester are F8 A6. (Avg 3.5) Dunstable are F9 A6 (Avg 3.75). Dunstable have scored and conceded in every game. Three games have been 3 goals, one was 6. In three of their games, Cirencester have scored and conceded. Two of those were 3 goals, the other was 8. However, the fourth game that bucks the trend was a goalless draw against table-topping Corby. They play it a lot tighter than Dunstable, though.
Over 2.5 is 4/7
That double pays at around 2.5
. . .
Good luck today, everybody!
Great stuff UHT, all the best mate.
Cheers, Raal – you too, sir. That BTTS/O2.5 method is a tip of the cap your way!
I kept quiet ahead of the derby last week, but actually we did better than I was fearing…
As ever, keep up all the good work!!
Simple double today for me eastleigh and Portsmouth to win 4/1 oh and a first scorer tip Matt tubbs 4/1 for Wimbledon

Challenge Cup Final preview
The first piece of silverware will be decided at Wembley this afternoon as Leeds Rhino’s, face off against Yorkshire rivals Castleford Tigers. It will be the first time these two famous old clubs will have met in the final. It also guarantees that the cup will be going to Yorkshire for the first time in 8 years.
These two sides shared a 24-24 all draw a couple of weeks back and that game will be remembered for Kevin Sinfield red card for a head butt on Luke Dorn. It was Sinfield first red card of his long career. Rhino’s named their team on Monday, it wasn’t really a surprise as most people new he would pick the same team that beat Warrington in the semi final. Castleford have had big doubt over Craig Huby, the prop was named in the squad and my guess is he will play, but I would be amazed if he lasted the full 80mins.
Castleford are the Cinderella story of Super league and everyone bar Leeds fans will want them to win this. They have an opportunity to pile more Wembley heartache on the Rhino’s and the first opening exchanges I think will be brutal. As I said the neutrals at Wembley will get behind the Tigers and they will outnumber the Rhino’s fans. It makes for a special occasion this afternoon.
Who wins? My heart says Castleford, my head says Rhino’s end 6 years of Wembley pain. We will find out by 5pm whatever happens it should be a cracker.
What happened to the Euro Treble Mr F? Ideal day for one today
Any thoughts in your beloved Hearts Raal?
mitchymitch, think we will win mate but they are capable of scoring.
3 quick fire corners brings it 3-3 so only needing 2 more, early ICT double corner hopefully :)
Villa game over 1.5 evens-two bob.
Anytime goalscorers;
GAYLE (PALACE) 5/2
BERAHINO (WBA) 7/2
BONY (SWANSEA) 7/5
MARTIN (DERBY) 11/8
4 x 2p Trebles and 2p Roll Up = 10p :)
Ral cheers for the reply mate a think your boys will draw
4-1 to your boys and 3-1 to ours Tony ;)
Challenge Cup final bets
There are plenty of markets and specials to look at, so check with your bookie to see what they are offering. Cup finals are usually tight affairs, and with this being a derby, it could pay to split your stakes on a Leeds penalty 10/1 and Castleford penalty 12/1 William Hill to be the first scoring play. Sinfield and Sneyd are prolific kickers and an early two points maybe taken just to settle their respective sides down.
In the try scorer market I like the look of both wingers on a big open pitch. The Rhino’s as I have said before on the site have the best backline in the competition, and anyone of them can score. For a single I will be on Tom Briscoe. He was the star of the show in their semi final and is often over looked in favour of Ryan Hall. He is 5/4 Betvictor. For the Tigers “the beast” Justin Carney as been more of a bad boy recently, but he is back from suspension, he has 17 tries in 19 games. He to is 5/4 again at Betvictor.
As I say there is a lot of specials out there, and out of the ones I have seen, the best one could be at William Hill who offer Ryan Hall to score and Leeds to win 11/8.
The man of the match is a not a market I play in as they are the opinion of one man, but the Lance todd trophy is a prestigious award and is always a fun bet. In the office sweepstake I drew Carl Abblett and I may get a run for my money if it is a low scoring game. I will pick a player from each team.
For the tigers to win they need to dominate in the forwards and allow the likes of Marc Syned and Daryl Clark to get the ball out quickly. Luke Dorn was man of the match in the semi final win and another big game is needed from the try scoring full back he is 14/1 Stan James and it will be small stakes for me.
For Leeds Jamie Peacock won the man of the match against Warrington as he dominated their pack and if Craig Huby isn’t fully fit which I think he wont be then JP tussle with Andy Lynch becomes even more important. However I will be on Kevin Sinfield. “Sir Kev” as he is known by the Rhino’s faithful is big game player and won two Harry Sutherland awards which is the award given to the man of the match in the Super league grand final. As I said in my preview he was sent off the last time these met and will surely be up to writing that wrong and ending Leeds Wembley woes. He is 7/1 Stan James.
LEEDS PENALTY FIRST SCORING PLAY 10/1
CASTLEFORD PENALTY FIRST SCORING PLAY 12/1
BRISCOE TO SCORE 5/4
CARNEY TO SCORE 5/4
HALL TO SCORE & LEEDS WIN 11/8
Lance Todd Trophy winner
SINFIELD 7/1
DORN 14/1 (smaller stakes)
Good luck if your having a bet
Celtic RT7 10/11
nice one craig. i got rt7 celtic 13/10 b365
Afternoon Guys, only two bets in the afternoon games as I will be glued to the Rugby Challenge cup. I am doing to goal scorers as single and a double paying just over 9/2.
Swansea first home game of the season after a win at Old Trafford and I like Wilfred Bony here. He as scored 5 in his last 5 games. He is 5/4 Bet365. My second selection is Darius Henderson of Leyton Orient. He should score a bagful in this league and as started of with 2 in 3. Walsall have conceded in the last 6 meetings and 5 of the last 6 Orient home games have seen O2.5. I will be on Henderson who is 13/8 Betvictor. The double pays a shade over 9/2 Bet365
BONY TO SCORE 5/4
HENDERSON TO SCORE 13/8
BOTH TO SCORE 9/2
Good luck if your having a bet
Bhoys saving themselves for Tues.? I`ll take the draw at 13/10 to cover my BTTS small stake.
Norwich v Ipswich under 6 match corners at 5/1 so far theres only been 1 at 32 mins in
Bet lost 73 mins and 6 corners :-(
treble at just over evens. zenit , st gallen and malmo. first two start at two. seems a safe wager on stats and form.
25 mins gone . zenit 2 up and st gallen 1 up malmo still to play.
Into them Bhoys,get our BTTS bet up!
Celtic’s priorities lie elsewhere at present!!
I see Raal is also on Bony, what can go wrong :)
I have only got 20p Raal but I will risk it on your acca :)
Good luck today lads, hopefully a early penalty in the cup final will be the start of lots of winners ;)
Good luck Chief ;)
Challenge cup final Leeds v Castleford
Won’t bore u with write up as the chief has done an excellent job, one guarantee today is in the build up to the show it will show sheffield eagles beating Wigan in the biggest shock ever, I blame myself as it was my first cup final as a teenage lad and was wigans first defeat in a decade at Wembley but I digress….
Leeds big match mentality will be enough to see them overcome cas so couple bets for me
Leeds (-8) evens
Ryan hall wincast 11/8
Sinfield MVP 7/1
Daryl Clark anytime scorer 23/10
Good luck and enjoy
Nice 1 Craig theres the 5th corner
FIDDLER’S BEST BET OF THE DAY
14.30 HOFFENHEIM VS. AUGSBURG
Hoffenheim to win
1/1 (PaddyPower)
Home team impressive in preseason matches, really offensive minded and decent squad I expect strong start from them in the league. Both teams played their cup games recently, both away games, only difference is that Hoffenheim won 9:0 whereas Augsburg lost 0:1 to not that strong Magdenburg.
Anyway SUPER SINGLE ICT OVER 4.5 TEAM CORNERS EVENS, Celtic never get an easy time up there and with a crucial CL qualifier midwk bug Ronny’s no gonna take any chances
WIN :)
Dundee Utd v Ross County home win Single
Fleetwood Town v Chesterfield btts Single
Milton Keynes Dons v Coventry btts Single
Celtic RT7 10/11 LOSES :(
good shout mr f regards celtic game watch the team they put out didint see any game sounded on radio both teams had chances
alec, just back from watching it. Celtic had chances in the first half but were poor after the break. I hope people took my advice to wait for the teams then back Inverness on the handicaps if Celtic were weakened. Deila’s focus as we knew would be on Tuesday and that’s quite right.
Rangers minus 1
Chelsea minus 1
Dunfermline
My only bet today pays just under 5 to 2….good luck all
Cheers Harry, think ICT ended up wi 7 corners so well overpriced. Shame Celtic couldn’t win the RT7 especially after going behind but main bet was on ICT corners. Also waiting on Chelsea Wigan & Preston for 9/2+ 4fold with ICT corners already up

HAVING A PARTY IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE :)
Best Super Single today is without doubt Nottingham Forest to beat a dire Reading side. Reading have lost le fondre and relying on the talentless simon cox to score. They lost 2-0 at home to managerless huddersfield midweek whereas Forest are in unbelievable form and look like world beaters under pearce. Sell out at the city ground expect a lot of noise when forest win again and stay top of the league.

raaljaca, good day for you so far. Wasn’t sure about your boys without Sow but Keatings is decent at that level. I’ve got Hibs down for a draw and btts so need them to score.
Hoffenheim 2:0 up at half time, cash out for nearly 90% although I’m leaving it since can’t really see Augsburg doing much :)
Bradford match- over 0.5 fhg 5/6 & Peterborough over 1.5 tg 12/5 -smaller bet
West Ham RT9 11/10, 6-1 up on 42 mins but west ham just scored

janowicz-rosol 2 2.30
leicester holding chelsea could be a shock result
Chelsea are shocking so far.
I hope everyone took note on my Forest Tip. Absolutely smashing Reading!!
There we go Assombalonga on the score sheet! 4-0 Both tips have now come in. I hope you all got on them :-)
any body any thoughts betting arsenal or everton tonight
GREAT NAP GREG CHEERS
Cashed out that 4fold for over 3/1 as 3 of the teams are only winning 1-0, chelsea wigan & preston should all still win but 1-0 too dodgy for the sake of £6

We should get paid out on Monday guys :)
raaljaca, did Hearts ew so basically the same thing. A QoS winner away from a decent day and got the late winner I wanted at Peterhead but it went the wrong way.
I still maintain we will win this league Mr F. Next 2 weeks off the field could go a huge way to deciding that with our main rivals. Also Stubbs must stay!!
raaljaca, you’re looking good and I’m happy to have tipped you each-way. As you say Rangers’ biggest battle is away from the pitch.

On the Arsenal corners craig fingers crossed 4 another winner!

From Jamie Borthwick of STV;
@jamiekborthwick: Hearts genuinely surprised me today. Some of their football was unbelievable. Blew Raith away today.
:)
I was at the games today and would agree Raal; Hearts performance today was about the best I have seen from a visiting side in probably a decade or so.
Hearts played football from front to back and not a single high ball.
David, I gave my ticket to a mate as it was a sell out but guys just back reckon we were buzzing the whole game. Neilson beat Rangers and Hibs by playing proper football and going by what you are saying it has continued today. So good to see a side doing that. Just saw Keatings free kick!! We also have Sow available next week so great selection ‘problem’ for Neilson. I said before the season started we could win this league and I stand by it as we will score goals for fun.
Also David your post has made me so proud to be a Jambo ;) thank you mate.
Hey raal congrats on the 2:55 16/1 on the horses i must have missed that one Damnnnnn :-( lol
Thanks Dee mate and top stuff Danny T :)
Cheers raal it pays to know your enemies (Everton) lol. I like Everton really I always want Merseyside one two in the league but it’s been a while
Seamus Coleman any time 9/1 :-) :-) win
everton looking good arsenal to many good players on the bench

What annoys me is I tried to place on hills both bets max stake exceeded…so I had to call them to then be left on hold for 9 mins…While the traders decided if they would take bets…They did but a company of that size disgrace traders took so long.
jazza, unfortunately it is something we have to put up with mate. A very decent bet these days can mean spreading it over several accounts and walking round the shops to get cash on. Hills in shop are quite good though as up to £1,000 can be taken no questions asked on reasonable odds.

Not going to plan with Arsenal corners, 0 corners at HT and not even had a shot on target, now that they’re 2-0 down Wenger should make changes but big ask
Everton match- BTTS 8/11 & Giroud anytime scorer -smaller bet.
I have decided to attempt to instil some much needed discipline into my Saturday betting. To cut down from placing numerous singles and accumulators, not forgetting tweaking other tips that always seem dead certs at the time.
Usually I come online after lunchtime with 4 or 5 bets in my head, only to come on here and see 12 varying types of bets which, on paper are all rich pickings. Alas come 5.45 I have approximately 10 winning teams to my credit, only to notice that my account is still down or only showing a modest increase. That is because often the 10 winners are accompanied by 7 or 8 losing teams.
This is my only football bet until later this evening.
DERBY V FULHAM @ 1.80 *WON*
MIDDLESBROUGH V SHEFFIELD 1.95 *LOST*
PRESTON V OLDHAM @ 1.65 *WON*
Treble @ 5.80 *LOST*
Good luck to anyone who follows this tip and to everyone for their Saturday foray.

After a promising start to the season Middlesbrough it would appear has reverted back to last seasons form.
Can anyone tell me the best placeto find out who was man of the match
Arsenal without one corner in 60 mins
Conference & Scottish 2 tips
Sorry no write up no time
Eastleigh win 1/1 LOST (dunno how??) :(
Halifax & Montrose 0/2.5 double 2/1 LOST (unlucky) :(
Namaste fellas
God bless Sergio Garcia ! He tries so hard but the poor guy really does have sh*t for brains ! He chokes even worse than arsenal !!
AEK Athens doing well against Roma maybe worth a punt at 5/1
After last weeks success in getting four from five of a MR+BTTS bet, I’ll be on these today.
Chelsea (2/1) Bournemouth (9/2) Forest (11/4) Hearts (13/5) Malmo (21/10)
I do: 10 x 30p trebles + 5 x 30p fourfolds & a 50p acca. (£5 total stake)

Shaun Tanner,
you get off line , you need to lie down and rest so that you are focused for your late shift on here for MLS.
I posted this yesterday, a day early.
FC SEVILLA V VALENCIA 20.00 La Liga
Sevilla to win @ 2.15
Sevilla (-1) @ 4.00
Sevilla/BTTS @ 4.10 smaller bet.
Sevilla has had a great pre-season, had a high intense build up as was playing Real Madrid in the Super Cup. Although losing the match, Sevilla had a good fitness level and subsequently played a full strength team 3 days later after that defeat and raised the game enough to win.
I am convinced that Sevilla’s home advantage and sharpness can see a comfortable victory against the team it eliminated from last season’s Europa League. Valencia has a new, foreign owner and a new manager, who has had a total clear out. 10 players out and 10 players in.
For me, I think it will take Valencia a few games to settle, as it has has lost the core of its team. I strongly believe that 10 new players are too many and starting a new season away to Sevilla is no mean task as Sevilla has made some shrewd signings and loans and is expected to finish fourth for CL qualification.

Good luck anyone who follows my tips.
Steua game all over away side nearing half time 1/2 for home win always seem to get the win get on happy betting
Raal btts in Peru would have been in first half but a missed pen denied us that so 45 mins for the home side to bag us a great end to the day :-)
Saw it Danny and would have preferred the home side to score first but here’s hoping mate. Cienciano rarely keep a clean sheet but Los Caimanes are a very poor side but do score a few goals.
It’s been quite a one sides first half the goal was against the run on play so fingers crossed we get that goal on second half . The crowd however must have forgotten what time kick of is as I think there may be 3 people there in total:-) . Great win for hearts today also which is great just hope Liverpool can take man city on and we can sneak a point to make it a great weekend ;-)
Going for Seville over 6.5 corners at 10/11 based on last years form.
Craig Alves,
that’s a good shout.
ICT corners came in easily enough, thanks for that shout.
Huracan RT5 8/11 1-2 after 34 mins
Any golf experts on ? If so how likely is it that either Sergio Garcia or Rickie Fowler can win or place in the Barclays . I had a pre tournament small each way punt on them thanks
Sorry Danny can’t see it happening both well back and too many quality players in front of them who will push the scoring lower.
Ricman thanks mate. I don’t understand golf properly so cheers for that . Not to worry it was only loose change bet to have a go at .
Danny T, I haven’t checked today’s scores but anyone within a few shots of a place will still have a chance. There’s big money at the top of the leaderboard and FedEx points so no one will give up.
Cheers mr f I will keep an eye out on proceedings
After red bull come on the Peru team…
Craig unlucky on the arsenal corners mate. Agree on sevilla corners…they love corners givimg and taking lol
Sevilla vs Valencia 20.00
Carlos Bacca 1st scorer @ 6.55
Carlos Bacca anytime scorer 2.75
Just back from the St Johnstone v Aberdeen game and the Saints fully deserved the 3 points today. Aberdeen were poor, probably the worst performance I’ve seen from them under McInnes. Early days but we really lacked any creativity today, hopefully something that will look to be rectified before the end of the transfer window,
How we went in level at half time I’ll never know with McLean hitting the post when clean through 1 on 1 with Clangers, who then almost gifted Saints a goal a few minutes later. Think we only managed 2 decent attempts on goal all day, Considine hitting the bar & Goodwillie’s attempt just after he came off the bench.
Good 3 points for you today Greg, and fully deserved!
AL, just back from watching Everton. The Dons cost me my aways treble and I rue looking at team news before replacing Hearts with Aberdeen. Shrewsbury, Portsmouth and Hearts would have been a nice treble.

Shaun I must have won almost 10 different bets, all from your tips.
Mon and Shaun tanner . That’s some going that well done some great work there. I have also had a little of at your bacca anytime tip after landing a tidy some from Coleman earlier. I have also a few spare pennies on what I tipped up earlier with nani that’s it from me until the btts machine (raal) pops up with his next offering . Been a good day guys considering it’s the Saturday mine field
what u think tomorow mr f man utd win minus a goal
alec, I’m not tempted after seeing Man Utd last week. They’ll come good under van Gaal I’m sure but need more players. Won’t be easy at Sunderland.
Shaun T when will you be posting your Mls picks for tonight mate?
I was thinking NY Red Bulls win, New England win , and Toronto over 2.5 in a treble?
Not such a great day. At least the nap came in with Barnet coasting in 2-0. The NB was a longer shot, so, even though Staines failed to keep up the momentum and lost 3-1, it wasn’t a disaster. However, the O2.5 double managed two fails with a goalless draw thrown in for good measure. Poor.
Apologies DougieC – appreciate your enthusiasm! Stick with it! ;-)
Your victory is right around the corner. Never give up. :)
Raaljaca my man, can you give out a nice wee dbl btts for 2mrw ? Ive been knocking on the door with btts tbls, missing out on 1000’s by 1 goal over the last 5 days..Help me out mate :) :) :)
I will tomorrow alasu mate. Will post something by early afternoon ;)
UHT – many thanks for the Barnet NAP. Greg B and AL thanks for your picks today, did a few trebles and a couple of larger accys and had a good day on the back of that. Thanks guys.
Mr f does the Dane or Alex the Bournemouth fan still come on not seen anything from them for ages ?
Danny T, The Dane sometimes emails but people come and go and the vast majority of users don’t comment either.
Dont want to be awkward mate, but im out and about early morning, you got anything on your mind that I could have now.??
alasu, not yet mate as I want to see if there is any money for the market before putting anything up. Games wont be until late afternoon onwards.
Thanks Danny,
which bookie have the Nani bet with?
Bet365
Didn’t go chasing my loss after Southampton v West Brom let me down on btts but congratulations Raaljaca, Fiddler, Shaun Tanner and anyone else who successfully tips on here and well done. Mr fixit unlucky with your 3 away teams there’s always one !!!!!!!!!! And your left thinking if I had done this or if I changed that……….oh well
Bog thanks to Raal and Greg, saved me from the disasters that were my own tips again!
Cheers yesevil mate ;)
And to that list I forgot to add The Chief, Greg Browning aaaaaaaaaand Harpreet! If I have forgotten to add anyone else I humbly apologise! Thanks
You’re welcome Raal, but, unfortunately I’m going to try with my own tips again tomorrow. I’ll just make sure I cover with yours and Gregs tips
Yesevil, level stakes mate and you will be fine.
My usual level stakes on yours and Gregs Raal, then slightly less on my own until I find a rhythm and research that pays off.
Get in there shaun on your o higgins btts
Level stakes are important. The below 3 rules are as well:
1) Have a clearly defined staking plan,
2) Do not chase losses (increasing stake after a few lost selections is definitely not recommended) – that’s not easy
3) Analyze statistics and team news before going ahead with selection – obvious one :)
4) Back Hearts every week blindly :)
Backed raals glorious hearts but put them in a dbl with port fail ,should’ve gone with my heart& stuck them with the mighty imps,…thinking of putting a few £ away each week on a bet for the end of the season ,was thinking of hearts to win league any other ideas
Daz, outside of us playing Rangers and Falkirk back us -1 to win any game and you will make money.
Valencia down to 10 men, then Sevilla bring on ex-Valencia man Banega, who valencia feel they were robbed of a decent transfer, class move. The fireworks should start. Banega to get a card for certain.
Raal, great win for your lot today mate and a great BTTS :)
look forward to your selections tomorrow, i have a feeling Hearts / Derby / Atletico Madrid could be the 3 banker teams for the season
BG, a great win but the football they played was outstanding and that is what matters. Rangers are 8/13 and we are 7/4 to win the league and I still say anybody should get on us as we will win it I am certain. Our side has really gelled and with 3 or 4 first choice players still out we will only get better and better. League Cup is to be avoided as it means nothing to us and even the Scottish Cup won’t matter unless we draw Hibs, Celtic or Rangers.
yea im gonna avoid for sure after your advice the other night mate but ill deffo be on you boys next weekend.
i got on atletico 14/1 the minute you mentioned raal, its great odds for a team full of Work Horses, give me a team with the work hard factor then a team worth 400mil
Shaun T, good shout mate on Nublense. Was on it on Hills and at 1-0 they were betting on over or under 5.5 goals but not BTTS, strange quotes.
Bearded Geordie,
less of that talk !!
Hearts and Atletico in the same sentence will have Raal salivating.
Blancos, it did indeed mate!! On Atletico at 14/1 as it is ridiculous odds as well.
Blancos, lets be honest mate they will both dominate in there respective leagues…
atletico are 1/2 to win Monday night i know its alil short but surely a great addon to any acca
I agree they are both good additions to accs especially Atletico with Mandzukic. It will take teams a few months to even have an angle on how to contain him.
Independiante CA v Velez 00.30 KO
over 9.0 asian corners 1.850
Independiante RT7 small stake
yea im gonna have him on FGS on monday if he starts, ive always liked Mandzukic, would of loved to see him in the prem
Petrolero match- BTTS 8/11 & OVER 1.5 FHG 13/8 smaller bet.
Betting suspended for a while now and supposed to start at 8 but still not kicked off.
8/11 WINNER!!!
1-1 after 54 mins :)
Small stake in Lobos BUAP RT5 at a decent 9/4 for an outside chance
Blancos- thank you very much mate for the nice post. No worries though, you just caught me at a good time! :D

Brazilian game ended 1-1, Nublense match currently 1-1 :)
Mr f and Raal,
I expected Sevilla to get a few goals tonight, especially with Valencia having a player sent off.
A had Sevilla to win & sevilla (-1). You both, among others have helped me to have the discipline to use cash-out when appropriate. I cashed out Sevilla to win because I was offered around 60% profit. Then when Valencia went down to ten I was offered a cash-out for the other bet too.
I took it because I have learned on here that profit enables you to increase your balance and to bet another day.
Hey guys,
Read the tips and profited today taking Watford as a single. Ended up placing the modest winnings on a Lille and Las Palmas double which just came in (didn’t put it up as I don’t post stuff I’m unsure about) so tripled my money today.
Just wondering with all the chat of level stakes and a betting bank, how do people divide it up? For example and ease of explanation, if I had £200 as a betting bank, would people divide that into 50 equal blocks of £4 to bet with on each bet, 40 blocks of £5, 20 blocks at £10 etc?
You guys are knowledgeable about this sort of thing and wanting to know the best way long term that even if I go through a dodgy patch, it won’t hurt me.
Thanks in advance for the advice guys. Tommy
Tommy, I divide my own bank into 100 units and never bet more than 10 on one day which means I need 10 losing days in a row on every bet before I need to start again and it never happens.
Mr F, that’s the sort of advice I was hoping for. Before you said that, I was looking at 50 equal units, but 100 will give me far more longevity. Thank you, much appreciated.
You are too modest Shaun, just don’t allow the praise too affect your tipping………..
Tommy, regarding a betting bank. Most people will bet a percentage of it. So the more you win, (therefore the more you have in your account) the more you bet. Generally speaking, 5% of your betting balance should be a maximum bet. This allows you to control the amount you stake, so even if you are chasing loses, any further loss wont make too much of a dent (in theory).
Thanks Jasper, sound advice. Appreciate the help mate.
Fortaleza match- over 1.5 mg 6/4 & BTTS in 2nd half 10/3- both small bets.
One other thing Mr F – if I increased my betting bank through a good run, and say went from £200 to £250, would you increase the unit stake from £2 to £2.50, or would you keep the same betting unit value divisible from the starting bank or the bank you now have?
Tommy, what I do is withdraw every time the balance goes above starting point.
Superb. I’ll follow your lead. Thank you for the advice. Looking forward to seeing your tips tomorrow too. Off to watch Match of the Day now and toast Watford on the Football League Show! :-)
Tommy, me too. Footie and a big bottle of Leffe Ruby, reduced to £2.50 in Tesco. I walked out wearing a mask as I felt I was robbing them.
Speaking of the Dane, if he or anyone else is clued in about this guy Sloth that Leeds have signed I would be interested to hear if he is any good?:)
Ken he was a key player in the goonies ;-)
Kendog, young player with 5 caps for Denmark so hopefully not a bad signing. Around a dozen new players in so far but probably take a while to gel. Delighted they got Billy Sharp as he will score a good few I reckon.
Nani missed a pen :-(
Fortaleza match- over 1.5 mg 6/4 & BTTS in 2nd half 10/3- both small bets.
6/4 WINNER!!!
10/3 WINNER!!!
1-1 just over 10 minutes gone in 2nd half :)
Great stuff Shaun T :) keep it up mate.
Shaun!!! How do uol do it???!! Literally ten mins after you post all the fortaleza tips rolled in lol
InterYerNan, he’s got a time machine. Right I’m off to 2025.
Atletico MG match- BTTS 1/1 & over 2.5 mg 11/8- smaller bet.
I took Sporting at HT and gave up after he missed Danny, he stopped thinking the keeper would dive then hit it keepers bottom right and he saved it but got lucky wi a last min gl
Craig shame like but good that you got the win in I thought 3/1 was good price for something that seems to happen a lot goal for the club on return nearly paid off I guess
Lol Danny T
To be honest I would still be happy with that compared to what we have!!!! :) :)
Ken isn’t your chairmen the guy who dropped paddy kenny because he was born on the 13 and doesn’t like purple ? It’s a shame to not have leeds united in the top flight
Haha I need to borrow it ;)
Rory do you mind me asking where you are from mate
Inter- its just luck mates thats all. :)
Thanks raal mate. :)
Cheers Raal, its baffling the effort Cellino has put into signings and left Hockaday in charge!
….,though it does look like that might change very soon with rumours tonight he is on his way out…
The only thing is top managers that could get Leeds up like say Pulis or Mackay probably wouldnt be prepared to work with Cellino wanting to pull the strings! Though he obviously a passionate guy and is putting his money where his mouth is..
Kendog, quite feasible Cellino wanted to sign whoever he wanted without interference from a manager so he appoints Hockaday who won’t open his mouth about anything until all his targets have been brought in then empties Hockaday and appoints a new manager to work with his new recruits. A very clever and shrewd way to go about his business.
This isn’t my main scorer bet in this game but I think it’s over priced and will be having a small stake on it if he starts the game.
Ethan Finley (Columbus) anytime scorer 9/2- small bet.
6 goals in 19 league games this season. Box to box midfielder, in the mould of a certain Steven Gerrard- not in the same class though! Scored in his last home match v LA Galaxy.
Kendog- sorry for the late reply. Your treble looks good mate, though i don’t usually do straight wins myself. GL with it all. :)
Mr f- your trip to tesco’s post.fantastic,bloody fantastic
MLS scorers-
Wright-Phillips (NYRB) anytime scorer 5/6

Nyugen (NE) anytime scorer 9/4
TREBLE 13.89/1
Defoe (Toronto) anytime scorer 21/20
4-FOLD 29.53/1
PLEASE BARE IN MIND THERE ARE QUESTION MARKS OVER DEFOES FITNESS AS HE HAS MISSED THE LAST 3 GAMES SO HE MAY NOT START. MAY BE BEST TO LEAVE UNTIL HE IS A COMFIRMED STARTER OR NOT. :)
Few MLS picks from me tonight! Usually go all out with scorers but gotta few fancies in the overs department.
New York V Montreal
By now everyone knows New York are becoming a really good team more so attacking, a lot of the time they know they can out score teams with the likes of Henry, BWP and Cahill, although most of the time they are sloppy when defending which gives the opposition a chance of breaking and scoring which has happened often this season.
BWP is short for this game at 5/6 but I will put him in a double/treble possibly. My pick for this game however is NYRB WIN AND OVER 2.5 goals. this has come up in the last 3 H2H also with red bulls being the home side.
Toronto V Chicago
My pick for this game is straight forward again Toronto have great attacking power but not very strong defensively, Chicago have a few good attacking players and I feel they will find the back of the net at least once as Toronto have been leaking a lt of goals lately BTTS has come up on there last 5 home games and also the last 4 times these two teams have met with Toronto being the home side. BTTS 8/11 is my pick!!!
Last 2 picks no real explanation, I feel the attackers will do the talking with the likes of Dom Dwyer for Kansas City I feel over 1.5 Team goals has good value 8/11
Also Columbus at home with the goalscorer Higuain in great form I feel they should net twice Over 1.5 Team goals 4/5
Sorry to go on! Just a quick summary of all my picks!
New York win and over 2.5 goals – 6/5
Toronto v Chicago – btts – 8/11
Kansas City – Over 1.5 team goals – 8/11
Columbus Over 1.5 Team goals – 4/5
I will be playing singles/doubles
Four fold also pays 10/1 for anyone interested !
That was good timing Mr Tanner! Have mentioned both the players in your double and will be on that! Glad you agree, I’ve put up my thoughts on the games, good luck tonight pal! Will catch up tomorrow more than likely!!! Good luck mate.
I know I’m a bit late but just managed to check so
A treble for me today
RB Salzburg -2
Rangers -1
Chelsea
****WIN****
Yes raal your right don’t back minus 1 against the mighty bairns….rocked up at easter road today at around 3 to 1…i was no baby enough to put any on…We played rangers off the park for 80 mins
jazza, I said at the beginning of the season us, Rangers and Falkirk would be the top three and I stand by that. Good young side you have like ourselves and no reason why you should not be up there at the end of the season.
Brave enough ha hate pre text
TEAM GOALS MLS

No singles taken, just the lines.
My apologies Shaun, as I did say if I was held to pick I’d go with Newcastle today when you asked. They did dominate it seems but didn’t quite do enough. However I did tell you not to go BTTS so I hope I saved you losses at least. I’m sure you’ll bring me some winners tonight :)
Raal..yes I wasn’t sure but Houston was a good appointment..and the team are gelling well. Not quire as well as hearts but yes definite should make playoffs again this year. Blair Alston especially good player for falkirk this year and con or Mcgrandles has raw talent. Loy will knock the goals in all season..

Shaun, maybe Im been biased but a bet on Darlington Nagbe to score first 9/1 and anytime 11/4 could be a just reward. The guy is long due a goal and tomorrow could be the night.
I know zero about MLS football, but I know thins that are long over-due have good odds! Also DC United are 0-3 up at half time and ‘only’ 1/14. I know LA Galaxy won from 2 down at half time a couple of days back, and they’re short odds, but why only 1/14 may I ask? I thought they were both decemt sides.
It would take a big effort for Kansas to turn that around Jack. The price is possibly based on Kansas being top of the league and they are usually pretty decent at home to be fair, like I say it would take a big effort on their part. This is Kansas 3rd game in 7 days aswell.
Cooldude- your right he is due a goal! Would like to have a better look at the game before lumping on anything.
Yeah saw NYRB goals, Henry pulled them out of a tight spot, they were very unconvincing 1st half.
