HOW many times do you put on a line absolutely convinced you'll be picking up winnings a few hours later? It happens to me most weeks and especially with the enhanced top treble.
I've had more losers than winners with this bet during the season and that's been disappointing.
It does seem as if it's jinxed with sides on long unbeaten runs suddenly playing like rabbits in headlights when they appear here or teamsseeing the red mist descend with an incredible number of reds shown to teams on my treble, such as Falkirk who went down to 10 men last week and promptly conceded three more goals at home to Dumbarton.
It's a new year so I'm hoping for a change of luck in 2013. I'm wary of a lot of the FA Cup ties while team news is still developing because loads of managers, especially those in the Premier League, will rest players so it's vital to know who's doing what.
I'm starting my treble with a Derby side who have no reason not to give it their best shot at home to League One leaders Tranmere in the Cup.
Derby have been strong at Pride Park all season with just two defeats and easily beat Middlesbrough last time out. Tranmere could be heading for the Championship but their form has dipped after getting off to a flier.
The Prenton Park men have recovered from a 5-0 spanking at Swindon to win three in a row – but all have been a struggle and by one goal and Derby will be tough.
Talking of Swindon, it's difficult to ignore Paolo di Canio's men at home to a Carlisle side who have lost four in six.
Swindon have recorded back-to-back 5-0 victories and confidence will be high as they step up their bid for promotion to the Championship.
Complete the treble with runaway Scottish Second Division leaders Queen of the South who should be even shorter than 1-3 for the visit of Arbroath.
Allan Johnston's side thumped Ayr 5-1 at Somerset in midweek and are 11 points clear of second-placed Alloa and 21 ahead of Arbroath who went down 6-0 on their last visit to Palmerston.

I like the look of Hull, Forest and Doncaster for a tasty 3/1 home treble or a more adventurous 12/1 shot my 3 x away wins are Norwich, reading & burnley.
Mr F – i know they have been poor but surely Dumbarton are too highly priced at 5/1 at home to Dunfermline after their latest 2 performances winning 4-3 at Falkirk & 3-0 at top of the league Morton??
Muzza, I fancy Dunfermline to be honest. Dumbarton’s two wins came away from home and also teams will be more wary about them now. Don’t think Dunfermline will be caught out the way Morton were.
Thanks mate. I don’t know much about Scottish football was just looking at the stats & 5/1 at home looked incredible!
And you were right but only just! :0)

Fixit, do you have any idea why wolves are priced at over evens to beat luton? I know wolves have been poor of late, but Luton are 3 leagues below them, and they haven’t been the most reliable team this season! Thanks mike
Mike, I think it’s just because Wolves have been so poor of late. Luton were expected to challenge for the title but have struggled but probably aren’t much poorer than most of the League Two sides. I’m not touching this one and I know there’s been money for Luton.
Thanks Mr fix it , the first few days of this year has been good me doing four sets of doubles and winning at least two sets
Mike, I went to the wolves home games against Peterborough and Ipswich over Xmas and we didn’t even manage a true shot on target, we are shocking at the moment I think that’s why the price is so good. We should still be able to turn luton over but if they get stuck into a wolves team low in confidence we could see a shock, I’m leaving it alone mate, even though the price is tempting.
Thanks for the advice Scott and Fixit! To me it does just look so tempting especially with the gap in divisions! I’ll leave it alone after your advice! Really hope wolves don’t win now else I’ll be kicking myself!
Mike, if you believe in Wolves back them. They’ve been poor the last couple but beat Blackpool away a few weeks ago and played well. For me it’s a no bet but it doesn’t mean I’ll be right.
Hard work getting a treble these days so Im on teams regarded as ‘certs’ at home!!
RANGERS
Queen of the South
MAN CITY
short odds but a treble all the same.
Sunderland 6/4, Reading 7/5, and Sheff Utd 11/10, Stoke 6/4 all look value at odds against prices.
Treble is Blackburn Aston villa Berwick
Swindon, QoS, Nottingham forest
Mike, its up to you, the price is excellent I agree and when you look at the wolves team it’s got a lot of prem experience and also a few international players in Doyle, ward, foley and Berra. I am just giving you my views from watching the last couple of home games and trying to justify the price, if you feel it’s right get on it, for what it’s worth I think Norwich are a great bet to beat posh!
Scott, I’ll be on Norwich but again I’d like to see them put out a strong team.
Man City
Spurs
Chelsea
Fixit, I think any prem team home or away playing lower league opposition at evens or above are worth a punt to be honest, I wouldn’t go big but definitely worth including in your Acca.
The problem is when they start messing about with the starting eleven which is normally teams involved in the champions league, but its the fa cup at the end of the day and I would be very surprised if the majority of premiership teams don’t go full strength this weekend.
Scott, it’s a good assessment. You don’t get those prices often. I was looking at Cardiff at just under evens at Macclesfield byt Malky Mackay is playing a full reserve side.
