I SAID I would leave Airdrie out when they let me down on this line but they’re back in favour. They netted the goal last week that brought up the fivefold – and for good measure went on to score two in the last five minutes in a 6-2 Scottish Cup defeat at home to Dundee United. Now they travel […]

LAST weekend we helped pay for all those Christmas presents with a winning SFL treble that returned around 4-1. So let’s hope we can make it a double and beat the January blues by beating the bookies for a second week in a row in the Scottish Football Leagues. We kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and focus on […]

TUESDAY: Real Madrid, Sheff Utd, Fleetwood. WEDNESDAY: Spurs, Espanyol, Roma. THURSDAY: Barcelona, Napoli, Athletic Bilbao, Academica. Three days, three trebles and a fourfold. All correct. I’ve been on a good run and wouldn’t it be great to make it four in a row. Normally I wouldn’t put a treble up with it being such a quiet night but four in a row […]

SCOTTISH football continues its Friday night experiment with a game from the First Division that’s tough to call. Hamilton and Partick Thistle had contrasting results in the Scottish Cup last week but in the league it’s the Jags who have looked better. However, with Accies welcoming back keeper Tomas Cerny who has been a big miss and skipper Alex Neil they […]

IT’S been a decent week highlighted by two Super Singles and two winning top trebles. Buoyed by that success I’m taking on the four games in Spain, Italy and Portugaland Italy tonight and offering up another Super Single and treble. Barcelona are in Spanish Cup action away to Osasuna but how will Pep Guardiola approach the match with his side leading […]

LIVERPOOL are 1-3 with William Hill to reach the Carling Cup Final after beating out-of-sorts Man City 1-0 at the Etihad. Kenny Dalglish’s men are 4-7 favourites to win the trophy with City out to 5-2. City are 9-4 to come back and qualify for the Final at Anfield and 7-2 to win the Cup and Premier League. Meanwhile, Spurs […]

Etihad, Wednesday, 7.45pm, live on BBC1 MAN CITY’S fortress Etihad was breached by Man Utd in the FA Cup on Sunday – and they’ll be determined to avoid a repeat against Liverpool. After 15 home wins a row and a year unbeaten, United blitzed their neighbours with a three-goal salvo before hanging on after the break. Premier League leaders City are […]

THERE is one game in the Premier League with Spurs a biggest 6-10 with William Hill to beat Everton at home. Spurs can move level on points with Man United if they win and it’s a great chance for Harry Redknapp’s men to put down a marker as serious title contenders. David Moyes’ Everton will battle hard but don’t score enough – […]

I HAD some decent success on this market at the weekend so hope to follow up with another win. There aren’t too many games in England and Europe tonight so I’m settling on a fourfold. I’m going to start with the Blue Square Premier and the clash between Cambridge and Grimsby. Both teams are in good scoring form with Grimsby hitting […]

CARDIFF go into Tuesday’s Carling Cup semi-final at Crystal Palace hot favourites to reach the Final but they may have to settle for a first-leg draw at Selhurst Park. The all-Championship showdown looks close to call but I’d slightly favour the Welsh who have been more impressive in the league so far this season. The Welsh side are a best […]

IT could be all about Thierry Henry when Arsenal take on Leeds in the FA Cup. The Gunners legend recently had a statue unveiled outside the Emirates but the Leeds defenders can be sure he won’t stand and admire it. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has said 34-year-old Henry will play some part but hasn’t confirmed whether he will start so […]

MARK HUGHES is already the odds-on favourite to take over at QPR according to Ladbrokes. The bookies make Hughes a 1-2 shot to replace axed Neil Warnock with Gianfranco Zola 4-1. Steve Bruce is 6-1 chance to return to top-flight management. Ladbrokes betting: Hughes 1-2, Zola 4-1, Bruce 6-1, Dave Jones, Roy Keane 10-1, Gordon Strachan 12-1, Lee Clarke 14-1. William […]

THERE weren’t any Scottish Cup shocks on Saturday barring a couple of draws and there won’t be any on Sunday. Celtic and Rangers travel to Peterhead and Arbroath respectively and ahead of the ties William Hill were offering 8-13 on one of the big two lifting the trophy. That sums up their dominance and a Celtic v Rangers final pays […]

IT’S a mixed bag for the Scottish Football League this weekend with some clubs on league duty while others take part in the Scottish Cup fourth round. But that hasn’t stopped us from doing our homework as we look to bash the bookies with a winning treble of SFL teams. We kick off in the Irn-Bru Third Division and focus […]

IT’S Scottish Cup weekend but I’m kicking off with a Division Three game. Montrose and Stranraer have met twice this season with a 6-0 win for the Blues at Links Park being followed by a 4-4 draw on the south-west coast. Last season both teams scored in all four meetings between the sides including a 5-4 win for Stranraer and […]

MAN CITY bounced back well from defeat at Sunderland by thrashing Liverpool and Man United will be looking to do the same at Newcastle tonight after thier Blackburn shocker. The Reds are unbeaten in 18 against Newcastle and have kept five clean sheets in a row away from home. You can have 3-4 with Paddy Power on an away win […]

Roberto Mancini and Kenny Dalglish go head-to-head tonight as Man City take on Liverpool. To add to the excitement Bet365 are offering customers a free In-Play bet on this Premier League match. All you need to do is place a pre-match bet on the big game, then once it starts place another bet on any In-Play market. If your first […]

THERE are three Premier League games tonight and two more tomorrow as the hectic run of festive games continues. Man City are one of those sides who have suffered from a packed card and will hope to get back on track at home to Liverpool. City failed to score in a 0-0 draw at West Brom then lost 1-0 at […]

THERE is virtually a full card to choose from on Tuesday and I’m taking a mixed English and Scottish line. I’ve said I’ll stick with Airdrie until one of their games fail to feature both teams scoring and it shows no signs of happening. The Diamonds visit an Albion Rovers side to whom they lost 7-2 in November having thumped […]

FIRSTLY, a Happy New Year to all readers and I’ll keep this short in case you’re still blurry-eyed from last night’s celebrations. There are two games in the EPL today with West Brom kicking off against Everton at 12.30pm followed by Sunderland v Man City at 3pm. I’ll start with the second game which will provide Martin O’Neill’s men with […]

WHEN I started looking at the weekend card I was really struggling to pick homes, not just value ones, but homes of any sort. It wasn’t until I noticed the amount of games arranged for Friday that I began to realise why. There are matches scheduled tonight and at first glance I saw as many homes from them as from […]

IT was a busy midweek of football and we had three £10 bets to give away over the course of Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. There were only 11 winning tips with some real beauties among them. I went for Bury at 9-4 to beat Scunthorpe on Tuesday. But on Wednesday Inverness at 21-10 just missed out against Hibs. On Monday Malcolm […]

IF you could only have one bet tonight it would have to involve goals at Carrow Road. Norwich entertain Spurs and that should be the right word to describe a game which should be in direct contrast to last night’s no-score between Stoke and Aston Villa. Paul Lambert’s Norwich have been a breath of fresh air, scoring plenty but not […]

I’M hoping the festive card gets off to a bang with loads of goals on Boxing Day. My both teams to score fivefold starts with Bolton v Newcastle in the Premier League. Owen Scott’s side got the win they needed against Blackburn last weekend and should go into the home clash with Newcastle in better spirits. I reckon they could […]

THE SFL takes centre stage on Boxing Day north of the border – so let’s see if we can deliver a knock-out winning treble to floor the bookies. And at this festive time let’s hope our coupons don’t turn out to be turkeys! We kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and focus on Dundee’s home clash with Morton. After […]
