FEB 24: MAN CITY v BARCELONA BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 23 Feb 2015

I’VE never been an Oasis fan but boy did Noel Gallagher talk some sense on MoTD2 on Sunday night. Don’t think Jose Mourinho will be buying any of his records though – or any Man United fan for that matter. I always like to hear fans’ views on their own team – celebrities or not – and two things Gallagher […]

FEB 24-25: MR FIXIT’S FOOTBALL CHAT

Posted on: 23 Feb 2015

I TRIED this a couple of weeks ago but most people stuck to putting comments on the top tips thread. So let’s see if it’s more of a success this time so we can keep the top tips to betting chat, tips, team news, etc. It’s a busy week of football after a dramatic weekend which saw everything in the […]

FEB 22: CELTIC v HAMILTON BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 21 Feb 2015

IT’S difficult to know how Celtic will react to their thrilling 3-3 draw with Inter Milan as they welcome Hamilton (1pm). I was delighted with Xherdan Shaqiri netting first on Thursday to justify my “tips don’t lie” claim but Ronny Deila’s did well to recover and keep the tie alive – even though I can’t see them progressing. I’d be […]

FEB 22: PREMIER LEAGUE TIPS AND TEAM NEWS

Posted on: 21 Feb 2015

CHELSEA’S draw against Burnley summed a day of shock results in England. Man United’s loss to Swansea wasn’t a huge surprise the way the Red Devils have been playing though. Down the leagues we saw the likes of Middlesbrough, Reading, Bournemouth, Bristol City and Swindon all lose. Hopefully Sunday will be a better day and here’s the Premier League team […]

FEB 21-22: SPFL STATS PACK AND BETTING SPECIALS

Posted on: 20 Feb 2015

THERE’S been another debate about the merits of lifting the alcohol at football grounds in Scotland ban since minor trouble at the Old Firm League Cup semi-final. I can see the pros and cons but feel most clubs should be allowed to serve drink to supporters – but not at high-profile or games regarded as a security risk. McBookie go […]

FEB 20: RAITH v RANGERS BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 19 Feb 2015

WE’VE all made packets backing against Rangers this season and opposing them at 9-2 will tempt many. There’s no doubt the price – from bet365 – is too big but bookies will always be reluctant to offer value on sides such as Rangers who will be backed blindly by many people outside of Scotland. I confidently backed the Ibrox men […]

FEB 19: CELTIC v INTER MILAN BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 18 Feb 2015

CELTIC have sold out Parkhead for the Europa League clash with Inter Milan and let’s hope fans are not disappointed when Shaqiri and not Shakira strolls on to the turf. And hopefully the tips won’t lie as I expect a match with both scoring and ultimately Inter qualifying for the last 16. The Italians may sit 10th in Serie A […]

FEB 19: CELTIC v INTER MILAN SPECIALS

Posted on: 18 Feb 2015

CELTIC have sold out Parkhead for Thursday’s visit of Inter Milan and to celebrate William Hill’s Owen Scott has put together some early prices and specials. The Scottish champs are 2-1 with William Hill to carve out a first-leg lead with the Italians a best 31-20 at McBookie and BetVictor and a draw 5-2 with boylesports. This is of course […]

GOLF: ACE VENTURER’S TIPS

Posted on: 17 Feb 2015

I DON’T know what I have to do to get that elusive win this year. With Nick Watney finishing second at the AT&T on Sunday that’s five seconds in four weeks. Watney was a 35-1 pick so there was a still a good return for anyone taking the eachway advice – but I’d prefer to land a winner. The European […]

FA CUP DRAW AND BETTING LATEST

Posted on: 17 Feb 2015

LIVERPOOL were the big winners when the FA Cup quarter-final draw was made and are now 2-1 favourites with firms such as bet365 and BetVictor to win the trophy. Brendan Rodgers’ side were handed the home tie they wanted and are expected to see off Championship outfit Blackburn. The Reds are desperate to give Steven Gerrard a Wembley send-off and […]

BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL – IT’S ALL OVER

Posted on: 16 Feb 2015

SCOTT LAIRD ended Long-Shot Lee’s futile attempt to prove his way of betting was better than doing short-priced favourites. Lee claimed he wins big on bets priced 10-1 or over but was left clutching at straws as the last point in his betting bank went on Marouane Fellaini to score first for Man Utd at Preston in the FA Cup. […]

FEB 16: PRESTON v MAN UTD BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 15 Feb 2015

AFTER another weekend of FA Cup surprises I’m not sure how many people will rush to back Man United at Preston tonight. Louis van Gaal’s side continue to split opinion – they sit third in the Premier League but haven’t won over many fans with their style of play. A squad packed with superstars such as Robin van Persie, Angel […]

FEB 16: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 15 Feb 2015

IT’S last-chance saloon for Long-Shot Lee whose luck was summed up Sunday’s events. He tried an anytime-scorer double and saw Adam Rooney denied a perfectly good strike with a shot that was a couple of feet over the line and then his other pick, Middlesbrough’s Patrick Bamford, was subbed after a quiet display at Arsenal. Lee is down to his […]

FEB 15: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 14 Feb 2015

ONCE again Rod (Punting For Fun) won on Saturday but there was no hard-luck story Long-Shot Lee who is moving closer to the exit door. Rod went for a simple travel at just under evens with Real Madrid, Sevilla and Crusaders while Lee managed one out of three (Crewe) on a 39-1 attempt. It means Rod is on the verge […]

FEB 14: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 14 Feb 2015

ONCE again Rod (Punting For Fun) won on Friday and once again Long-Shot Lee was unlucky. Rod needed a 90th-minute goal from Volendam to bring up a 4-5 over 1.5 goals treble but Lee was a Rangers goal shy of landing his 11-1 treble. It means Rod has more than doubled his betting bank while Lee is two or three […]

FEB 14-15: SPFL STATS PACK AND SPECIALS

Posted on: 14 Feb 2015

PREMIERSHIP leaders Celtic are first up today with a lunchtime showdown at St Johnstone – and I’d check team news before having a bet. Hoops boss Ronny Deila says the side that will play in Perth won’t be the one that tackles Inter Milan in the Europa League on Thursday. He hasn’t said how much he’ll rotate but if makes […]

FEB 13: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 12 Feb 2015

ROD (Punting For Fun) did a little football/rugby double on Thursday and came up trumps. He took Anderlecht not to lose and St Helen’s to win and they absolutely smashed it – so once again his betting bank is looking healthy. Long-Shot Lee was unlucky with his fourfold – only Adrian Lewis’s defeat in the darts prevented him from hitting […]

FEB 13: HIBS v RANGERS BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 12 Feb 2015

RANGERS’ defeat by Celtic in the League Cup semi-finals won punters fortunes and I see another opportunity to boost the bank balance tonight. The Ibrox side are in a state of disarray on and off the park after following one cup exit with another against Raith in the Scottish Cup last weekend. They went down in both games with barely […]

FEB 12: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 11 Feb 2015

ROD (Punting For Fun) is back on track after landing a treble at just under evens – Celtic, Man Utd and Chelsea draw no bet. That puts his betting bank back up to 25.3 points while Long-Shot Lee is down to six and could be days away from losing. Rod and Lee are playing to see which type of betting […]

DAY 11: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 11 Feb 2015

ROD (Punting For Fun) has followed four winners in a row with three losers to prove what a strange game betting can be. He was one goal short in the Algerian Cup game at ES Setif so that’s another 11 points off his total. Rod is back in the red and will be hoping to address that situation on Wednesday. […]

FEB 11: PARTICK TH v CELTIC BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 10 Feb 2015

RONNY DEILA is 2-1 with McBookie and BetVictor to collect the Treble in his first season but it’s easy to forget his side remain locked in a title fight with Aberdeen and Dundee United. Celtic are incredibly short at a best 1-20 at William Hill to retain their crown and to do so will want to pick up maximum points […]

DAY 10: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 09 Feb 2015

THERE were no winners for Punting For Fun (Rod) or Long Shot Lee on Monday with Rod losing on tennis and Lee missing out by a Lazio goal – his Devante Cole first-scorer pick was void. Rod’s followed four winners in a row with two 10pt losers and will be hoping to get back on track tonight. Lee’s still searching […]

DAY 9: BANK BUILDER v LONG SHOT TRIAL

Posted on: 08 Feb 2015

THERE was no joy for Punting For Fun (Rod) or Long Shot Lee on a frustrating Sunday of too man draws. Rod’s run of four winners in a row ended as Bruges lost at Kortrijk while Lee also fell at the first hurdle with Man Utd failing to beat West Ham. Rod and Lee are playing to see which type […]

FEB 8: SCOTTISH CUP TEAM NEWS AND TIPS

Posted on: 07 Feb 2015

THE William Hill Scottish Cup threw up just once shock on Saturday with holders St Johnstone crashing out at Championship side Queen of the South. As predicted there were fairly routine wins for Celtic, Falkirk and Hibs and I also tipped non-league Spartans not to lose at home to Berwick and their hopes remain alive after a 1-1 draw. Inverness […]
