MR FIXIT’S NPOWER CHAMPIONSHIP BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 14 Sep 2010

THERE is another busy night in the English Championship with a load of tight games in prospect. Backers of draws might be advised to perm three from five or four from six from a number of selections including Ipswich v QPR and Middlesbrough v Burnley. The team I want to be on most is Cardiff who again did us a […]

IS HARRY GAME?

Posted on: 10 Sep 2010

Harry Redknapp has been installed as bookies favourite to be next England manager after Fabio Capello confirmed he will step down after the Euro 2012 finals. Paddy Power make the Spurs boss a well-backed 3-1 favourite with Martin O’Neill next in at 11-2 ahead of 6-1 chances Roy Hodgson and Stuart Pearce. Other names in the frame at this early […]

ENGLAND v PAKISTAN ODIs

Posted on: 09 Sep 2010

By David Jack England and Pakistan are back in action today in the first of five one-day internationals at Chester-le-Street in Durham and it’s hard to see beyond another victory for the Three Lions. The hosts eased to a 2-0 series victory in the T20s and are 4-11 with totesport, 888sport, Coral and Boylesports to win the opener, with an […]

HIGGINS CUT FOR CRUCIBLE

Posted on: 08 Sep 2010

JOHN HIGGINS is 6-1 third favourite with Paddy Power to win snooker’s World Championship next year after escaping a lengthy ban. The former champion had been 8-1 as bookies and punters awaited the long-delayed verdict from snooker authorities. Higgins is likely to return in November after being cleared of match-fixing alegations. Ronnie O’Sullivan is The Crucible favourite at 7-2 with […]

RYDER CUP LATEST

Posted on: 08 Sep 2010

Tiger Woods is 4-1 favourite with Ladbrokes to be the USA’s top Ryder Cup points scorer after being handed a wild-card pick by skipper Corey Pavin. Phil Mickelson is 5-1 second favourite alongside Steve Stricker but the man I’d look at is steady as a rock Zach Johnson who has been in superb form. Johnson is 12-1. Others Jim Furyk […]

US Open: Latest Betting Tips

Posted on: 07 Sep 2010

Our resident tennis expert David Jack gives us the betting lowdown on the latest action at the US Open. Stanislas Wawrinka dumped Andy Murray on Sunday night and tackles American Sam Querrey today for a place in the US Open quarter-finals. The No.25 seed from Switzerland, despite the need for injury time-outs, was impressive in ending Murray’s bid but I […]

WILL WAYNE SAY SORRY?

Posted on: 05 Sep 2010

WAYNE ROONEY is 6-4 with William Hill to face divorce proceedings before Christmas Day. He is 33-1 with Hills to score – a goal – when England face Switzerland on Tuesday and unveil a T-shirt bearing a “sorry” message to wife Coleen. Rooney is 1-10 to start against the Swiss and 11-2 not to. Meanwhile, David Beckham is 7-4 with […]

ANDY MURRAY’S LAST STAN

Posted on: 05 Sep 2010

DON’T say we didn’t warn you. Andy Murray’s out of the US Open and tipster David Jack feared the worst. He knew the Scot would be in a for a tough time from Swiss star Stanislas Wawrinka and how right he was. The world No.27 polished off Murray in four sets and David rightly predicted there would be a tiebreak […]

ANDY MURRAY US OPEN LATEST

Posted on: 05 Sep 2010

Tennis Tips By David Jack British No.1 Andy Murray has comfortably reached the last 32 at the US Open and returns to court today against his good friend Stanislas Wawrinka in the Louis Armstrong Stadium. The pair met in 2008 at Flushing Meadows in the last 16 when Murray won in three sets on his way to the final. But […]

MURRAY v BROWN US OPEN

Posted on: 03 Sep 2010

By DAVID JACK Andy Murray (1-50, William Hill) is back on court in the US Open tonight against world No.123 Dustin Brown (25-1, boylesports) and another comfortable work-out beckons for the Scot at Flushing Meadows. The world No.4 began his Grand Slam bid with a straight sets victory over Slovak Lukas Lacko and I would be surprised if 25-year-old Jamaican […]

US OPEN TENNIS BETTING LATEST

Posted on: 02 Sep 2010

By DAVID JACK I RECKON Nicolas Almagro’s experience will be too much for the unseeded Guillermo Garcia-Lopez in the all-Spanish second-round battle. Fourteenth seed Almagro, who has won two ATP titles this year, is available at 8-13 with William Hill. Another seed, No.29 Philipp Kohlschreiber of Germany, is rated the underdog in his clash with Frenchman Gilles Simon. But Kohlschreiber […]

STOKES CHASES MILLER

Posted on: 01 Sep 2010

THERE wasn’t much transfer business done yesterday but Celtic did clinch the signing of Anthony Stokes from Hibs for £1.2million. The former Hibs man netted 20 SPL goals last season and McBookie.com go 6-5 he beats that tally. McBookie.com have cut the Irishman from 7-1 to 4-1 to be the SPL’s top scorer but remember he is already four behind […]

SWINDON GAMBLE LANDED

Posted on: 01 Sep 2010

MAYBE you can afford to paint the town red after I picked three winners for the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy. These games are notoriously unpredictable and my tactics of giving most of the favourites a wide berth paid off. My headline selection Swindon won 3-0 at Southampton at best odds of 9-2. They formed a winning treble with 11-4 Shrewsbury at […]

TENNIS TREBLE TRAPS

Posted on: 31 Aug 2010

Guest tennis columnist David Jack served up a cracker with his first men’s tennis treble on the US Open first-round matches. He tipped wins for Kevin Anderson, Janko Tipsarevic and Taylor Dent and it paid £33 to a tenner stake with William Hill. And we know plenty of you backed it with your comments – so DJ is back with […]

JOHNSTONE’S PAINT TROPHY AUGUST 31

Posted on: 31 Aug 2010

ANYONE planning to paint the town red tonight might be best advised not to punt on tonight’s football card. Unfortunately for anyone who fancies a bet all there is on offer is the dreaded Johnstone Paint cup clashes. Now there is no way to gloss over this – these games are sometimes impossible to predict. Many clubs are interested in […]

DAVID JACK’S US OPEN TENNIS PREVIEW

Posted on: 29 Aug 2010

Guest tipster David Jack gives us his exclusive lowdown on how the US Open at Flushing Meadow will shape in both the men’s and women’s tournaments. All eyes will be on Andy Murray as the US Open gets underway at Flushing Meadows tomorrow but I reckon the Scot will be left heartbroken again, this time at the hands of world […]

WATSON’S WINNING START

Posted on: 28 Aug 2010

European football expert Paul Watson – and we can quite rightly tag him that now – got his new column off to a flyer with a 3-1 headline tip. Paul’s Euro Super Single was Edin Dzeko scored two or more goals for Wolfsburg against Mainz in the German league. Dzeko’s double landed the gamble with Bet365 in the opening half […]

SUPER SUNDAY AUGUST 29

Posted on: 28 Aug 2010

SPURS ensured it wasn’t a super Saturday for thousands of punters but hopefully it can be a smashing Sunday. The Champions League new boys suffered one of the surprise defeats of the season when they went down to a Wigan side who had conceded 10 goals in their opening two games. It was a shock of seismic proportions but hey […]

MASTERCLASS: PERM OF THE WEEK

Posted on: 28 Aug 2010

HAVE had several requests to resurrect the perm of the week feature. I used to do this in the Daily Record every week but lack of space brought it to an end. But if there’s demand from the punters I’ll feature one here every week. So let’s start with one of my favourites and if you give a go let […]

EUROPEAN SUPER CUP PREVIEW

Posted on: 27 Aug 2010

IT’S European Super Cup night and it’s super tough to predict a winner. Let’s face it, this Monaco bash is nothing more than a glorified friendly. They won’t say it but Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid will see this an unwelcome distraction that has forced them to delay the start of their league campaigns. As Champions League holders Inter are […]

EUROPA LEAGUE ROUND-UP AUGUST 26

Posted on: 26 Aug 2010

While the Scottish clubs give it their all to reach the Europa League group stage questions must be asked of English sides’ commitment to the tournament. Liverpool are playing a weakened side in Turkey tonight, Aston Villa drew in Austria with a young team and Man City didn’t go hell for leather in Romania. The second legs take place tonight […]

CHISHOLM SACK RACE TIP

Posted on: 25 Aug 2010

Gordon Chisholm has been cut from 3-1 to 11-8 by McBookie.com to be the next IRN-BRU First Division manager to leave his post following Dundee’s CIS Cup shock at the hands of Brechin City. It is the second time this season that pre-season title favourites Dundee have been knocked out of a cup competition by lower-league opposition following their Challenge […]

SCOTS IN EUROPA LEAGUE AUGUST 26

Posted on: 25 Aug 2010

CELTIC usually get a nosebleed when they travel south of Watford but tonight they can buck the trend of losing away ties in Europe. Neil Lennon’s team seems to be shaping up nicely and head for Holland with a terrific two-goal lead. While the Hoops would be foolish to throw everything at the Dutch they must be positive and Lennon […]

ENGLAND FULL HOUSE

Posted on: 25 Aug 2010

Bet365 go 8-11 about Spurs, Aston Villa, Liverpool and Man City all coming through their respective second legs unscathed over the next few days. Spurs are 5-1 to win a major trophy this season and 6-1 that Harry Redknapp’s men win more silverware than rivals Arsenal after the signing of William Gallas. Three of the EPL sides go through pays […]
