APRIL 13: SCOTTISH TIPS

Posted on: 12 Apr 2011

THE Old Firm have won their last three games 1-0 – and that’s a sign of how tense the SPL title race has become. Celtic edged St Johnstone 1-0 on Tuesday after their equally-fraught 1-0 success against St Mirren at the weekend. Rangers battled past Hamilton 1-0 on Sunday and I’m sure will settle for a repeat result at Aberdeen […]

US MASTERS AFTERMATH

Posted on: 11 Apr 2011

RORY McILROY’S US Masters collapse was painful to watch and sore on the pocket. He was one of my tips to win at Augusta and for more than three rounds the 33-1 shot looked unstoppable until his game went to pot. Drives were pushed miles left then the Irish youngster lost all feel for the greens and missed a succession […]

LIVERPOOL v MAN CITY BETTING

Posted on: 11 Apr 2011

MONDAY’S English Premier League game will showpiece plenty of talent but the match itself may struggle to live up to the hype. Sky Sports must have thought they had a good one on their hands when live TV coverage was scheduled for this Anfield clash but last week’s defeat at West Brom means it’s not the Champions League qualification showdown […]

APRIL 10: ENGLISH FOOTBALL

Posted on: 09 Apr 2011

ARSENE WENGER reckons finishing second in the English Premier League will be no disgrace – and that’s about the best it’s going to get for the Gunners. Arsenal go into Sunday’s clash at Blackpool 10 points behind Man United and the title now looks a lost cause. However, there is no way Wenger’s boys will be giving up lightly and […]

APRIL 10: SCOTTISH FOOTBALL

Posted on: 09 Apr 2011

RANGERS need to be at their Sunday best to keep on the trail of SPL leaders Celtic. The Hoops eased five points clear at the top with their narrow win against St Mirren but the gap should be back to two by 2.30pm. Walter Smith’s men travel to a Hamilton side now 12 points off safety and without a home […]

APRIL 9: SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 08 Apr 2011

IT’S Grand National weekend – but don’t let that stop you having a flutter in the Scottish Football Leagues. Our man Joe Wallace has been on the case – and let’s hopes we don’t fall at the first hurdle this time around! We start off in the Irn-Bru Second Division and focus on Airdrie’s away clash at Alloa. Airdrie have […]

MACCLESFIELD v ACCRINGTON TIPS

Posted on: 07 Apr 2011

I’VE been all over Accrington like a rash in recent weeks – and they haven’t let me down. Last week they were one of my featured homes and beat Northampton. And in midweek they helped bring up a 22-1 five to follow win with victory against Southend. They say all good things must come to an end but surely it […]

WEEKEND EARLY PICK

Posted on: 07 Apr 2011

DUMBARTON are a side whose results I always watch closely. Being a Clydebank it comes with territory. What I’ve noticed recently is their incredible lack of consistency – but on their day they should be too strong for Peterhead. The Sons ended a decent run by being routed 6-0 at Brechin but bounced back with 2-2 draws against Stenny and […]

ROONEY BAN BLOW

Posted on: 07 Apr 2011

MAN UNITED are 25-1 to fire blanks during Wayne Rooney’s ban. The Old Trafford star, who has netted four goals in two matches, had his two-match suspension confirmed by the FA for swearing during last Saturday’s clash at Upton Park. Rooney will miss games against Fulham on Saturday and the FA Cup semi-final against Man City the following weekend. United […]

PLAYER OF THE YEAR BETTING

Posted on: 07 Apr 2011

GARETH BALE is the 4-11 favourite with Paddy Power to be crowned this season’s PFA Player of the Year. After the shortlist was leaked, the Irish firm revised the market to make the Welsh winger a clear market leader to win the vote of his fellow players. The timing of the vote in February is likely to enhance Bale’s chances […]

GOLF: US MASTERS TIPS

Posted on: 06 Apr 2011

PUNTERS have lumped on Phil Mickelson to make sure he starts hot favourite to win a fourth Green Jacket. The US Masters, the first Major of the season, tees off on Thursday and last week’s Shell Houston Open champion is a best 7-1 with Ladbrokes. Woods is his biggest starting price for a Major in more than a decade at […]

APRIL 5: CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

Posted on: 05 Apr 2011

THE Champions League exploded into action with four intriguing quarter-final ties. I would have said explosive but there is every chance the first legs will be cagey with most of the thrills and spills saved for the second meeting between the sides. Tuesday’s ties see Real Madrid v Spurs and Inter Milan v Schalke. The Bernabeu bash could be memorable […]

APRIL 5: SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 04 Apr 2011

THERE are not many games to bet on in the Scottish Football Leagues this midweek – but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth having a flutter. And our lower-league man Joe Wallace has been on the case in the search for a winning treble. We start in the Irn-Bru First Division and Morton’s home clash with Stirling Albion. In the […]

GOLF: US MASTERS COUNTDOWN

Posted on: 04 Apr 2011

FOR the first time in a decade Tiger Woods is out to 10-1 to win the US Masters. William Hill have reported a massive gamble on Phil Mickelson who has been cut from 9-1 to 13-2. Mickelson, who won the Shell Houston Open on Sunday night, is 4-5 to finish above Woods who is 21-20. Hills spokesman Rupert Adams said: […]

QPR v SHEFFIELD UTD BETTING

Posted on: 03 Apr 2011

IT was a super Sunday with three correct calls out of three – wins for Fulham and Man City and a draw at Hibs v Hearts. I also tipped Bobby Zamora at 4-1 to score first v Fulham and a red card in the Edinburgh derby at 9-4. Some of my profits will be going on QPR in tonight’s Championship […]

PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE LATEST

Posted on: 03 Apr 2011

MAN UNITED  are 1-5  favourites to win the Premier League title after a weekend when results mostly went their way. William Hill who also offer  9-2  Arsenal, 14-1 Chelsea and 66-1  Man City who beat Sunderland 5-0 on Sunday. Hills are also betting on who will finish runners-up in the table and make Arsenal 6-5 favourites with Chelsea 13-8, Man […]

GOLF: US MASTERS LATEST

Posted on: 03 Apr 2011

TIGER WOODS is no longer the favourite to win The Masters – for the first time in 11 years. The former world No.1 was overtaken in the betting last night by Phil Mickelson who was all the rage last  night after winning the Shell Houston Open with a final round 63. William Hill have installed Mickelson as 15-2 favourite with […]

SUNDAY’S ENGLISH TIPS: 3 APRIL

Posted on: 02 Apr 2011

MAN CITY have a chance to cement their Champions League place on Sunday when they host Sunderland. Spurs’ draw at Wigan means City will move seven points clear of the fifth-placed men as well as climbing above Chelsea with a win. It’s a massive incentive and I can’t see City slipping against a Sunderland side that’s lost five out of […]

HIBS v HEARTS BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 02 Apr 2011

LAST time Hibs played Hearts it was a banker win for the Jambos. Colin Calderwood’s side were in a mess and their Edinburgh rivals were flying. Hearts are still up there in third but for Hibs there has been a dramatic turnaround. Caldo brought in four or five of his own players during window and has made his side difficult […]

APRIL 2: SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 01 Apr 2011

IT’S a difficult weekend for picking winners in the Scottish Football Leagues. But our lower-league man Joe Wallace has once again been doing his homework in the hunt for a winning treble. And we kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and focus on Dunfermline’s away clash with Cowdenbeath. Jim McIntyre’s men go into this match two points ahead of […]

APRIL 1: DUNDEE ARE CHAMPS (FOOLS)

Posted on: 01 Apr 2011

BOOKIES have caused a storm by deciding to settle on Dundee as Scottish Division One champions. Dundee-based Taybet insist they won’t pay out to anyone who backed Dunfermline, Raith Rovers or Falkirk – even if any of those sides lift the title. And major firms are set to follow their lead as the move will save them tens of thousands […]

WEEKEND EARLY PICK

Posted on: 31 Mar 2011

I TIPPED up Accrington against Hereford on Wednesday and as long as their players have the legs they should see off Northampton on Saturday. Stanley are making a late charge for the League Two play-offs and hammered Hereford 4-0 to climb to ninth – just three points off sixth While they head in the right direction it’s been all downhill […]

APRIL 1: PETERBORO v BOURNEMOUTH

Posted on: 31 Mar 2011

PETERBOROUGH let us down big style when they were thrust into the spotlight last Monday for a live TV showdown against MK Dons. Everyone and their granny tipped goals galore but almost inevitably it was a damp squib of a game that ended 1-0 to the Dons. Darren Ferguson’s third-placed side are back in the limelight on Friday night with […]

ANDY MURRAY BETTING LATEST

Posted on: 30 Mar 2011

JOHN McENROE is 9-1 with Ladbrokes to be Andy Murray’s next permanent coach. Following his split with Alex Corretja the firm have opened a book on his replacement and make Darren Cahill, Bob Brett and Tony Roche 7-1 co-favourites of three. Greg Rusedski is a 14-1 chance with Jeremy Bates the 25-1 outsider. The firm also have Murray at 1-3 […]
