Just looked at the Champ games this coming weekend and it looks like a decent shout for a sort out at the top. Very strange - apart form the Blades, all the top half teams are playing each other - Us at Boro, Leeds at the Wurzels, Wolves play Preston, Fulham at Villa, Ipswich v Norwich and even 12th and 13th Derby and the Wendies play each other. I'll stack them below if anyone wants to have a go at predicting that lot............ they all look like draws to me. Wolves v Preston......Draw Wurzels v Leeds........Draw Boro v City................Draw Villa v Fulham...........Draw Ipswich v Norwich.....Draw Derby v Wendies.......Draw
Sheepy - you shouldn't say bloody things like that to me pal - you got me thinking about it!.... I've just looked and gone and done it. Money where my mouth is. 6 draws in a £1 Heinz. Wolves v Preston......Draw @ 13/5 Wurzels v Leeds........Draw @ 11/4 Boro v City................Draw @ 5/2 Villa v Fulham...........Draw @ 5/2 Ipswich v Norwich.....Draw @ 13/5 Derby v Wendies.......Draw @ 5/2 That's 57 quid on - let's see what comes back. Only thing that worries me is I've now backed City not to win.....
Well that's a tin of soup down the ****ter. 5 results and no draws - even we couldn't manage it......... The sixth draw forecast is the East Anglian derby tomorrow - bet they bloody draw!
Correct Dai - I used to have a go on the pools every bloody week for 30 years and won sod all. I had a go at a Heinz on this occasion just to back up my OP - it was all Sheepy's fault for suggesting it........ I only needed 3 draws out of the 6 to get me a profit - about £85 return for the treble and 3 doubles. If 4 or 5 had come in it would have been a very, very good day, and if all 6 had drawn I was on for well over 9 grand.
Sense has never been my strong point BT......... EDIT............but despite not backing City to win yesterday for the first time this season I did have a go at my usual theory about the good odds on our midfielders getting a goal. When I saw Bamba had dropped back to make a back five just leaving Bryson and Ralls in there I had my usual £8 on each getting one - Bryson was 9/1 and Ralls 17/2. At least I got my money back on that Heinz.....
Can't believe none of those 6 games will throw up a draw so I've just stuck £20 @13/5 on the draw for the Ipswich/Norwich game now playing. Noted that if Norwich win, they'll go top 6 displacing the Wurzels - don't know what result to hope for really.......
Crappo At least the bonus is the result put the Wurzels out of the top 6 and they don't bloody like it either - they won't speak to me on their board........
