ENGLISH FOOTBALL TIPS: 1st MARCH

Posted on: 01 Mar 2011

ALL down the English card there are tough looking games to call, matches that could either way. It’s a minefield for punters but one side stands out. Portsmouth have found their feet in the Championship after a tough spell and have notched up four successive wins under Steve Cotterill. Crucially, all have been achieved with the help of clean sheets […]

EVERTON v READING: BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 01 Mar 2011

DAVIE MOYES must have cast an envious eye at fellow Scot Alex McLeish as he picked up his first piece of silverware in English football. Moyes has taken Everton to cup finals but still awaits his first trophy. The Glaswegian must feel he has as good a chance as any with victory in tonight’s FA Cup clash at home to […]

CHELSEA v MAN UTD: BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 01 Mar 2011

LET’S get one thing straight – if Chelsea beat Man United tonight the only side to benefit will be grieving Gunners. Chelsea – 15 points adrift with a game in hand – can’t make up that ground and Sir Alex Ferguson is right to say it’s a two-horse title race between United and Arsenal. And that could soon be a […]

SCOTTISH TIPS: 1st MARCH

Posted on: 01 Mar 2011

THERE are two games in the SPL tonight with Hibs trying to make it five wins in a row at Hamilton. I did Hibees a bit of disservice last weekend when I confidently backed Inverness. Hibs’ previous three wins weren’t that impressive and included two against struggling St Mirren. However, Colin Calderwood’s side are showing a bit of steel and […]

SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 01 Mar 2011

IT’S another busy midweek in the Scottish Football League – and another chance to beat the bookies! Our lower-league tipster Joe Wallace has been on the case again and we kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and Falkirk’s trip to face Morton at Cappielow. After a disappointing run of form the Bairns have got their promotion push back on […]

FEBRUARY 28: STOKE v WBA

Posted on: 27 Feb 2011

STOKE’S one of the toughest places to visit in the Premier League and tonight looks like being another miserable one in the EPL career of Roy Hodgson. The former Liverpool boss started life at the Hawthorns with a home draw against Wolves but could suffer his first defeat tonight – and he won’t be the first Baggies gaffer to experience […]

CARLING CUP FINAL AFTERMATH

Posted on: 27 Feb 2011

I FLAGGED up Birmingham’s Carling Cup value and my fears about Arsenal being able to get across the line proved spot on. Alex McLeish’s men were my final fancy but I played it safe with my Super Single. Bet365 offered City at 4-7 plus two goals and I hope it was an offer you couldn’t refuse. Bookies reckon the defensive […]

FEBRUARY 27: ENGLISH BETTING

Posted on: 26 Feb 2011

WHILE the Carling Cup Final takes centre stage in England there are two massive games in the Premier League. Kenny Dalglish’s Liverpool travel to West Ham while Man City entertain Fulham. Liverpool are unbeaten in eight in all competitions and Dalglish still believes they can sneak into the Champions League places. It’s a tall order as the Reds trail Spurs […]

RUGBY: SCOTLAND v IRELAND

Posted on: 26 Feb 2011

THERE is plenty at stake for both sides as Scotland entertain Ireland in the Six Nations. Scotland have suffered defeats to France and Wales in their first two outings while Ireland were beaten at home to the French last week. Irish skipper Brian O’Driscoll is also out to avenge a Croke Park farewell loss to the Scots that started a […]

WIGAN ON A DOWNER

Posted on: 26 Feb 2011

WIGAN are 2-5 with Ladbrokes to drop out of the EPL after being hammered 4-0 at home to Man United. They are the shortest-priced team for the drop with West Ham not far behind at 1-2. Wolves thrashed fellow strugglers Blackpool 4-0 and move to 10-11 with the Seasiders drifting to 2-1, leapfrogging West Brom (6-5) in the betting. Blackburn […]

CARLING CUP FINAL PREVIEW

Posted on: 26 Feb 2011

WHEN the Carling Cup Final line-up was revealed I started planning how much I was going to wager on Arsenal. The Gunners are still no bigger than 2-7 at bet365 to lift the trophy but you can’t rule out Alex McLeish’s Birmingham under current circumstances. Arsenal will be without skipper Cesc Fabregas and flyer Theo Walcott while Robin van Persie […]

FEBRUARY 26: SIX NATIONS

Posted on: 26 Feb 2011

THERE is no doubt the Six Nations has been lit up by Chris Ashton’s swallow dives. The England star performed the stunt twice in scoring four tries against Italy and Ladbrokes go 2-1 he scores and pulls off the dive against France today. I can’t see him avoiding the temptation and Ashton is also 9-2 with Ladbrokes to score England’s […]

FEBRUARY 26: SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 25 Feb 2011

LAST Saturday punters were laughing all the way to the bank as our Scottish Football League treble came up trumps. And once again our lower-league expert Joe Wallace has been on the case in the hunt for another winning line. We kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and the clash at Dens Park between Dundee and Morton. Despite being […]

WEEKEND: EARLY PICK

Posted on: 25 Feb 2011

QUEEN’S PARK may be amateurs but they are the side the professionals want to be one right now. The Hampden-based amateurs have won seven out of eight in the Third Division to climb the table at a rapid pace of knots. Queen’s have brought home maximum points from their last four away trips and landed the Super Single on Tuesday. I […]

WEDNESDAY’S BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 23 Feb 2011

THERE are just five games on the go tonight and all could end in home wins. That’s how the bookies feel and I can’t really argue. Arsenal are the shortest of the five at a best 1-3 with Coral to beat Stoke at the Emirates. Their last home clash ended with a victory against Barcelona in the Champions League so […]

FEBRUARY 22: CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

Posted on: 22 Feb 2011

IT was incredibly tight in the Champions League last week – with Arsenal providing the only home victory. There were one-goal away wins for Spurs and Shakhtar while Valencia were held by Schalke. Tonight it could be just as tight with Copenhagen hosting Chelsea and Lyon at home to Real Madrid. Chelsea would normally be regarded as sure things against […]

BLACKPOOL v SPURS BETTING

Posted on: 22 Feb 2011

IT’S another busy night in England with the focus on Spurs who go from the San Siro to Blackpool Tower. What a culture shock that must be for Harry Redknapp’s multi-millionaires who are strutting their stuff in the Champions League. Spurs stunned Europe by beating AC Milan 1-0 last week and will blow Blackpool away with a repeat performance. The […]

FEBRUARY 22: SPL TIPS

Posted on: 22 Feb 2011

IT’S crisis time for Hamilton who are now 1-2 with William Hill to drop out the SPL. Accies trail St Mirren by five points with a game in hand ahead of their trip to Aberdeen. I wasn’t the only who thought the Dons’ bubble had burst but they bounced back to top form with a 5-0 thumping of Kilmarnock on […]

FEBRUARY 22: ENGLISH TIPS

Posted on: 21 Feb 2011

I ENJOYED a mixed weekend with my Championship bets. Leicester, Swansea and Portsmouth provided me with decent wins but I felt letdown by Ipswich, Millwall and QPR. There’s a full card tonight and best bets must be Norwich at home to Doncaster. Donny have lost seven out of eight and conceded nine without reply in their last two outings. They […]

FEBRUARY 22: SFL TIPS

Posted on: 21 Feb 2011

A COUPLE of weeks ago I advised to back against Stirling at every opportunity. The Forthbank side have duly lost every game since and now trail Dundee who were handed a 25-point penalty for going into administration. However, they have a new boss in the shape of experience ex-Dundee gaffer Jocky Scott. And they put on an improved show as […]

WEEKEND REVIEW: HOW DID WE DO?

Posted on: 21 Feb 2011

NEARLY all of our tipsters produced winning lines over the weekend but pride of place went to sports betting expert David Jack. Deadly DJ was rubbing his hands in glee as his snooker and tennis outright tips both won. He went for 5-1 chance John Higgins in the Welsh Open and 10-3 Andy Roddick in the ATP500 event in Memphis. […]

FA CUP: WEST HAM v BURNLEY

Posted on: 20 Feb 2011

AVRAM GRANT is aiming for a third FA Cup quarter-final in four seasons as West Ham do battle with Burnley tonight. Grant reached the last eight with Chelsea in 2008 and took Portsmouth to the Final last season. He seems to love the tournament and will field a strong side against Championship Burnley at Upton Park. The Hammers have already […]

CELTIC v RANGERS BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 19 Feb 2011

HOPEFULLY today’s SPL clash between Celtic and Rangers will be so good everyone will forget about the Scott Brown-El Hadji Diouf feud. The spat between the Old Firm rivals dominated headlines for days after the 2-2 Scottish Cup draw a couple of weeks ago. Bookies have also focused on the pair with countless special bets featuring them in the build-to […]

SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 19 Feb 2011

WITH the winter weather relenting we should have a full card of SFL matches to bet on this weekend. And once again Joe Wallace is on hand to cast an eye over today’s clashes – and hopefully pick out a winning treble. We kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and Dundee’s trip to face Stirling Albion. The Dens men […]
