OVER in the Far East we have the True Thailand Classic at the beautiful Black Mountain GC where strategy and approach shots could be important. In the last couple of weeks of February one of my Six of the Best for this year, Peter Uihlein, has looked to come good. In Malaysia at the Maybank he finished T98 and followed […]

RATED one of the toughest par 71s on the PGA Tour the Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club hosts the Valspar Championship this week. Defending champion Jordan Spieth returns to the Copperhead Course hoping to get some sort of form back which has deserted him since he won the Hyundai Tournament of Champions in early January. Apart from the fact he is […]

OLD FIRM fans won’t need to wait until next season for the next Glasgow derby – there will be one next month. Celtic beat Morton 3-0 with the help of a Leigh Griffiths (above) goal and will now face Rangers in the semi-finals of the William Hill Scottish Cup. Scots firm McBookie predict a £10m betting bonanza and have pushed […]

IF Rangers beat Dundee today the chances of an Old Firm Scottish Cup semi-final will shorten. It’s a big if though because as long as Dundee are brave and don’t hide they should give Rangers a serious test at Ibrox today. McBookie.com go 3-1 on an Old Firm final and punters can also back a Highland derby at 25-1 or […]

IT’S another massive day in the English Premier League with Spurs v Arsenal at lunchtime and Watford v Leicester in the evening the two live games. In midweek both North London sides slipped up with Arsenal crashing 2-1 at home to Swansea and Spurs shocked 1-0 at West Ham. The beneficiaries were Leicester who remain three points clear at the top […]

CAN you pick a match result and both teams to win double on Saturday? If you can you could win hundreds of pounds for absolutely no layout. All I want is to see two match result and both to score tips and I’ll pick two doubles I like. Last week it was one out of four but only two goals […]

DESMOND would love to land a winner after a couple of barren weeks – and Saturday could be the day. He says: Two teams I like the look of at good prices are Sheffield Wednesday and Hearts. First up are an Owls side at home to Rotherham. The Owls have the third best home record in the Championship and with […]

SOME say it’s my age, some say it’s being a fan of the Bankies, but most will agree I must be a little bit crazy to deal with some of the mad hatters that frequent the blog posts and forums of this site. It’s all in a day’s work and I wouldn’t have it any other way but this month […]

THE Blue Monster Course at Trump National Doral is well named. It’s one of the longest courses on the PGA Tour (7543 yards) and has plenty of water. This week it hosts the WGC Cadillac with 48 of the world’s 50 top players taking part so expect to see some sparkling golf. It may not be low scoring though as last […]

DESMOND is back with 2+ goals tips and he’s also added a both teams to score double and over 2.5 goals treble on the forum under English tips. He says: After a disappointing Saturday we have another tough looking card tonight. The two teams I like though are Northampton and Dumbarton (pitch inspection 5pm and now postponed). That leaves me […]

FOR the past few weeks I’ve been doing a little experiment on Ladbrokes’ moneyback acca coupon and while I ended 0.6pts down I have a £25 free bet from Sunday’s 4 out of 5. The stats don’t take into account any returns from the three void bets – totalling 7.5pts so I think it’s been a success and I’m going […]

ENGLAND’S first trophy is up for grabs at Wembley today and two of the big guns have made it through. Jurgen Klopp will be delighted to have a cup final appearance in his first season at Liverpooland Manuel Pellegrini will want to stick two fingers up at club chiefs by lifting silverware in his final campaign at the Etihad. It promised […]

AT the start of the season Leicester v Norwich would have been regarded as a relegation six-pointer. It’s still a huge game today but the teams need the points for different reasons. Claudio Ranieri’s Leicester simply won’t go away and as we head into March they remain top of the Premier League. Arsenal’s last-gasp winner in their previous outing was a […]

MORTON pulled off one of the biggest shocks of the season in midweek when they beat Hibs 3-0 away. The Greenock men were as big as 16-1 so you can imagine the price they were -2. McBookie now go 2-1 that treble-cashing Hibs end the season empty-handed. The Easter Road side have rightly been picking up plaudits by reaching the […]

EVER wondered how bookies are sizing up the weekend card. Here’s the thoughts from inside camps at 188BET and BetVictor. There’s a look ahead to the Capital One Cup Final on Sunday and a good acca insurance offer from 188BET on fourfolds. 188BET View Sunday will see the first trophy of the year handed out in England as Liverpool and Man City […]

DESMOND’S due a piece of luck so hopefully he gets it this weekend. He says: One more Barnsley goal last week would have brought the double up but unfortunately it was not to be. Staying in League One with two teams chasing promotion. First up are a Coventry side at home to Fleetwood. With Coventry scoring 34 goals in their […]

BOOKIES are running scared of Celtic tonight after their 8-1 demolition job of Hamilton. Finding value for their trip to New Douglas Park is difficult when they’re priced up at a best 1-4 with Coral. Those odds force punters to look at the handicap betting but Celtic have won by more than one goal just once on their last eight […]

IT’S the second leg of the dreaded Europa League last-32 ties and there are 15 matches to consider. Here are my thoughts on the English teams involved – Liverpool, Spurs and Man United – and I’ve add some views on some of the other games. Liverpool must be cursing a calendar that sees them in Europe tonight and playing in […]

AFTER a couple of bad weeks it’s time I got back on a winning streak. Therefore I’m sticking with the Honda Classic as I never do well Down Under so will give the ISPS Honda in Perth, Australia a miss. The Florida Swing starts at the Champion Course at PGA National in Palm Beach. With the last two outings there […]

IT’S a massive night in the Championship with 11 games and as usual in midweek there are bound to be some shock results so go easy. Burnley and Hull are pushing ahead and will be hoping to further enhance their promotion hopes. Sean Dyche’s team take on Nottingham Forest at Turf Moor and should be a decent bet at just under evens. Victory […]

IT’S David v Goliath in the FA Cup tonight and if the giants are slayed it will be the end for Louis van Gaal. The Man United boss is on his way out anyway and for many the last straw was an abysmal 2-2 defeat at Midtjylland in the Europa League four days ago. At least the Reds have a second […]

CAN you pick a match result and both teams to win a double this weekend? If you can you could win hundreds. All I want is to see two match result and both to score tips for Sunday’s matches and I’ll pick two doubles I like. The bet will be placed – £1 trebles and a fourfold and any winnings […]
