Sunday games,

Newcastle v Villa, going for the draw

Fulham v Man Utd, I can't see 7/10 Man Utd lasting too long but they are goal handicap kings and I like United -1 goal at 1.96

Cheers Brent, that was indeed a good price.

Here's a wrap of the rest of Saturday's games, most of which look pretty open contests.

German Bundesliga - my first ever stab at a webcast, not sure that that the pros have anything to worry about but good fun

Brilliant Chris, really enjoyed that - lets see it on the home page mate!

Will have to get the GFTG caps and shirts on order....

Like the look of the following bet this weekend. Spurs will not be putting out their best 11 when they play Stoke, due to their surprising 3-2 loss to young Boys. The second leg will be taking preferance next week, and it has been confirmed that the following spurs players will not be involved against stoke ( Defoe, Robbie Keane, Palvychenko, Modric, Woodgate and dos santos) Stoke are usually quite tight at the back, and with the majority of Spurs` attacking force out, under 2.5 @ 7/10 looks a decent shout.

I was originally going to go for Stoke Double Chance knowing that Spurs has such a hectic injury list, but at odds of just under 6/10, it just does not appeal to me at all. I may throw in a cheeky Stoke Draw no bet though Brittania stadium is a really tought place to go to with your best XI, let alone having to worry about injuries to key players at such an early part of the season.

brum/black cats double.  easy as pie 

I hope you are right Cats as I'm battling to find a secure unit that will take you after you made that call 

  Shot South, brilliant acca mate.

shot lads! 

With these big priced acca's you're constantly waiting for the last minute goal to scupper it, couldn't believe it landed, will be trying those tactics again next week!!

Mackem i think that is 1 out of 1 for the webcast best bet, overs landed in the Hamburg game? Nice!

Glad you got on Chelsea BB, a thumping win as I hoped for and piles the pressure on Martinez in the 1st Manager to go market. 

See Wigan have Spurs next week South, they had 9 put past them there last season. Your man must be worried.

I'm slightly in front with Arsenal goals, overs in Germany and unders in the Swallows Supersport game but Sunderland (overs) let me down and I needed Bloem to equalise against Chiefs last night.

I could do with Man Utd winning by 2 today!

Eish, thats a blow to my bet BB, even though Rooney has not been fit and firing. My moneys already down so no turning back.

Had a bit of change so went with a speculative acca bet
0.5 units on this:
Genk outright 13/20
Rangers HT 13/10
FC Utrecht HT 15/20
Newcastle draw HT 11/10
Man United to win 2nd half 15/20
Sheffield Utd Double Chance 13/20

Good times seem to be back at St. James` park, go magpies!! They definately played better than what the scoreline suggested last week against Man Utd. Who needs Shearer when you have a scoreline like this before half time!

mackem,
The handicap is warming up to me again, United are usually perrenial slow starters, but have come out flying this season. With Chelsea adding another 6 yesterday to their Goal scoring tally, United will surely need to keep their GD relatively close, should it go down to the wire-which is more likely to happen. I still fancy the Man Utd to win 2nd half bet, I reckon it represents decent value. May just throw in United -1 as well
As for you manager market, Hope that works out for you, as Im relatively sure Bruce will not see the end of this season!

We should have backed him for first goal mate! 1 up half time but work to do, first 20 mins was all Man Utd but Fulham back into it a bit.

Sick about that late penalty miss, credit to Fulham for the comeback.

Back in midweek for another go, cheers guys

I heard about that stat Brent,
not sure if this is true but apparently some poor sod layed 0 corners for £14 at 1000/1 with Betfair!

cmon the Reds tonight!! Only thing is that I don't want Mancini to be on rocky ground and get the sack before Martinez.    Gone 1 unit Ngog 1st goalscorer @ 9/1 (in better form than Torres).
