Due a win?

30 pts down currently, try and overhaul the deficit with two trebles this week.

Treble number 1;

Tranmere V Huddersfield Away win 10/11 drew 1-1
Exeter V Charlton Away win EVENS won 1-0
Macclesfield V Cheltenham Away win 23/20 won 3-1

This returns 7.2/1 7 pts.

Treble number 2;

Hartlepool V Carlisle Away win 6/4 lost 4-0
Rochdale V Bury Away win 7/4 lost 3-0
AFC Wimbledon V Aldershot Home win 23/20 lost 2-1

This returns 13.72/1 3 pts

Current total -40 pts

Tomorrow's Cricket

Pakistan Vs England

For me the draw has been priced very, very short. Given the way test match cricket is played currently and the fact that there is absolutely no chance of rain, I cannot see why it is so short. The double chance on England or Pakistan at 8/13 seems like buying money. Neither side looks like they are likely to trouble the scorers too much and i'd be very surprised to see either side score 400+ in their first innings'. With this in mind the draw seems extremely unlikely and for me, the double chance has to be a fine way of making sure fire money.

I also think England will bat far better this test match and, although I am not overly confident I can see them coming away with the victory they need to give themselves the opportunity to go on and win the series. England win

Pakistan Vs England Away win lost by 72 runs (how i'm not sure)
Pakistan Vs England Pakistan or England double chance (lay the draw) Pakistan win

Still searching...

Poor day yesterday with 1/3 correctly selected.
Spending my last 5 pts until next weekend today in another football treble.

Man City v Tottenham Home win 10/11 Won 3-2
Levante v Zaragoza Home win 10/11 Drew 1-1
Real Madrid (-1 handicap) v Athletic Bilbao Home win 11/20 Won 4-1

The treble returns 4.64/1. 5 pts.

Current total -30 pts

Weekend number two

Still looking for that first win....
just one 10 pts treble this week.

Huddersfield v Brentford - Home win 8/11 Won 3-2
Stoke v West Brom - Home win 10/11 Lost 1-2
Colchester v Chesterfield - Home win 4/5 Lost 1-2

This returns 4.93/1 10 pts

Current total -25 pts

Let's try again

Disapointing start yesterday, try and pick it up with my last bet until next weekend.

1. Pakistan V England 1st test Away win 13/8 Lost by 10 wickets
2. Wrexham V Brighton Away win 7/5 Drew 1-1

Bet returns 5.3/1 on William Hill. Solid value. 5 pts

Current total -15 pts

First blog

My first weekend of bets is upon us and think i have produced a nice selection of results. I have 15 points to play with each week and will be using 10 of them on saturday, leaving 5 for sunday or later in the week.

1. Brighton & Hove Albion V Bristol City Home win Won 2-0
2. Derby County V Coventry City Home win Won 1-0
3. Bournemouth V Notts County Home win Won 2-1
4. Bury V Sheffield United Away win Won 3-0
5. Colchester United V Scunthorpe Home win Draw 1-1
6. Leyton Orient V Chesterfield Home win Draw 1-1

The sixfold returns 82/1 roughly. 2 pts. Loser; two draws.

My second bet is Sheffield United, Colchester United and Leyton Orient in a treble.

This returns roughly 8/1 and genuinly think it is a really good bet. 8 pts. Loser; two draws

Current total -10 pts
