Mr Fixit's family have confirmed further details ahead of Paul's funeral on Monday.
Numbers are severely limited at the chapel and crematorium due to current regulations so the family have arranged for both ceremonies to be streamed for those wishing to pay their respects from afar.
You can click on the link below to access a live feed from St Jospeh's at 9.30am and Clydebank Crematorium at 11.30am.

There will be a planned stop at the home of Clydebank Football Club, Holm Park, between 10:45am – 11:15am for anyone who is local that wishes to pay their respects to Paul.
If you would like to make a donation in Paul's memory please read about The Bubble Foundation and St Margaret of Scotland Hospice and find how to donate here. Thanks to all who have donated so far.
Friday's Tips
The Premier League has been non-stop this week but it's the Championship that steps out of the shadows on Friday with Preston v Bristol City live on Sky Sports. KevMac has a go at trying to decipher that one in his match preview. At a push I'd opt for Preston to nick that one, they've lost their last two, both on the road but appear to have the greater firepower and have a good record in the head-to-head.
Arguably match of the day is in League One where the top two meet at the KCOM Stadium. Hosts Hull City have lost their last two but still hold a two point lead, with a game in hand over visitors Portsmouth. Hull have scored in all but one of their 17 matches to date, while Pompey are avergaing two goals per match on the road. Both Teams to score appeals at 4/5.
Both KevMac and SlipsTips have already started to tackle the weekand have already uploaded three match previews for Saturday.

French League 2 games all over 1.5gls 16/1
19.4/1 at PP Andy…👍
Wee update on the PP preseason bets.
Bruno Fernandes blew a blank tonight but has 16 shots on target after 12 games, 44 more needed. He needs an average of 1.66 a game. 30/1
Salah 23 Rashford 15 Werner 14 Aubameyang 12. Need 230 so 64 so far. 13 games played bar Man Utd. 166 more needed so 7+ a week between the 4 players will do. 6.64 on average not including Rashfords game in hand.
Still in with a shout on both but expected at least 2 from Bruno Fernandes tonight
2md one 175/1
I took Kane instead of rashford. Current total is 68 which is just below where it needs to be a 1/3 of the way thru. Aubameyang needs to get his finger out.
Aye defo Sean, Werner tae but Rashford was doing pish before last night aswell. Salah could be the saviour for us both…
Thanks for the update Alves, got on this as well. Will be close I’d say but fingers crossed 🤞🏻
Just the one game from me today, bundesliga action from Berlin where union take on Dortmund. Both sides last 5 matches have seen btts and I can see anything other than a repeat.
Btts/o2.5mgs 1/1 bet 365 NAP
Betbuilder
Both teams to be carded
Both teams to score
Both teams 3+ corners
12/5 bet 365 NB
Looks good mate. Any idea if Union are missing any key players up front? They are 2/1 for over 1.5tgs. Looking at their form and stats and Dortmund’s woes think that can easily sail in.
4 forwards out, most notably max kruse. however this is not these players 1st game out, they have been missing for a few weeks now, so union have still been scoring goals in their absence. Well done again yesterday mate, on fire just now. my mates been running riot on your tips this week.
Cheers mate. Taking a chance on them getting 2 for a longshot. Goodluck!
What are your thoughts on the Qatari cup game Sean?
hi pete, was waiting to see if i could get team news before posting anything. obviously if al sadd play their strongest side the should smash al arabi off the park given their current form.
Main bet today
Breda – Voledam BTTS
Other good bets
Union Berlin – Dortmund BTTS
Auxerre – Pau Fc 2-5 math goals interval
Regensburg – Hannover 1-3 match goals interval
I expect under 2,5 goals at Regensburg but 1-3 match goals interval is better
Voledam missed penalty and ruin by bets
blahh
Missed penalty by Voledam denied the BTTS mainbet. Great call Florescum
Caernarfon – Newtown am taking home to win pls anybody have any idea about wales league

Such a thoughtful thing for Mr F’s family to do so others can pay their respects, many tributes have been paid here to Mr F but id just like to add one thing that has struck me about him that must say so much about the kind of person he was. In the 10+ years i have used his site i never did know anything about his religion or political persuasion because at no time did he ever show any favouritism in any Rangers v Celtic banter that may have taken place in here at certain times and no matter who you were if you stepped out of line with any comments on the matter you received a verbal bullet from him, this for me says so much about the man given he was from a city that could at times be so divided and yet he always remained firmly on the fence. God bless you for that Mr F.
Sean
Great words about a great man
Will be sadly missed but never forgotten
RIP Paul
Here here Sean very true. Mr Fixit always remained impartial when just sometimes it looked like it could get out of hand. Great quality that to have. And that’s why the site has stood the test of time over the years. It was down to him and the others who made it that way. God bless him.
Been on skybets goals, corners and cards market recently…really like the look of the Dortmund game tonight for it
>1.5goals, >8.5corners and >2.5 cards is 2/1
>2.5goals, >10.5corners and >3.5 cards is 9/1
>3.5goals, >12.5corners and >4.5 cards is 50/1
I tend to treat it as a NAP, NB and long shot in terms of staking and aim to double my overall stake if only the NAP wins with the other two providing extra profit 🤞
7/5 winner with Manchester Utd to score in both halves but Sander Berge got injured after 10 mins and was subbed so the booking bet lost, still a profit though
Sheffield Utd v Manchester Utd
MANCHESTER UTD to score in both halves
7/5 william hill ✅
SANDER BERGE to be shown a card
5/1 bet365 ❌
Sander Berge bet should of been refunded mine was.
Yeah I got my stake back 👍
I know bet365 advertise that stakes on substituted players before half time will be refunded as a bet credit if a card hasn’t already been shown but because I haven’t checked all bookies rules I have put it down as a loser on my stats, hopefully everyone that backed him did so with bet365 or got similar with another bookie

Hi mates, been struggling to install oddschecker (very nice betting utility) app on my phone but no success. Keeps telling me it isn’t available in my country, even when I’ve used some Vpn app. Anyone had this experience and overcame, will appreciate assistance from you.tnx
Try using data instead of WiFi, that works in Spain with banned sites

Just to clarify, am I right in thinking that a ‘trixie’ is one treble bet and three doubles bets?…

Preston v Bristol City- 30+ BP’s for an interest watching
Quite like the chances of a few underdogs tomorrow in the epl and bundesliga. On paper the big teams should win but matches aren’t played on paper and the 4 home teams they are up against are all in decent form themselves, while the away sides aren’t exactly setting the heather on fire.
Liverpool-3 away wins in last 12 epl games
Man City- 3 away wins in last 8 games, just 4 wins in last 9 games and 2 of those were in Europe
Arsenal- no wins in last 6 league games, 1 win in last 5 away games
Bayern- 4 wins in last 8 games, 1 clean sheet in last 12 matches
As I say the away sides should probably all win with maybe the exception of arsenal but I’m quite happy to take them all on in a double chance lucky 15. The 4 fold pays 16/1 at bet 365. For singles doubles and trebles payout depends on your stake obviously. I like the chances of these 4 games as btts as well. It’s not a bet to throw the Xmas kitty at but I don’t see the away teams having it all their own way.

Hi Guys,
Just noticed over 1.5 goals in French National came in at around 38/1, hope some were on?
Also only 1 goal in the first half of Orlean’s game off the over 0.5 FHG also landing!
I actually had over 1.5mg, one goal away BTTS in all games too!
Salah is the Skybet EVENS for a shot on target….show in that
Should get a few shots in tomorrow Alves.
Should be Albee m8! £10 max but I’d be hoping for double my doh by FT.
