I had a bad one tonight, Sparta Prague being the main culprit losing 1-0 away at Kralove and having a man sent off! Not had a decent win for a bit so am due one.

my much heralded overs bet in the dutch jupiler league never fails to amaze me!!

tonight i bet on over 2.5 goals and over 3.5 goals in each of the nine games

there were 7 games over 2.5 and incredibly 32 of the 36 goals needed for the over 3.5 goals per game total, its mad how many goals get scored in that division, still no win, but its a gold mine if we can just work out which ones will be the high scorers!

so i was two goals away from a 45/1 win, and a mere 5 away from 1640/1 acc!! theres usually a flurry of goals approaching the end of these games, but tonight it just didnt happen, it was fun trying so roll on next week!!

anyway, tomorrows another day, i finally had to top up my account after a very good 2012 so far, fingers crossed that i get back on track again this weekend!

fiver on us yesterday at 4/1

this morning we're 33/1 to win the league, and 9/5 for promotion, crawley still 1/2 so the bookies think they'll sort out this stumble soon, all reports suggest they were toothless yesterday but outplayed the shrews on tuesday

the aldershot game now and we're obvious favourites to win at a generous evens, reflecting the shots great current form as you would expect. they're priced at 11/4 with the draw 12/5

I've gone for Chelsea, West Ham, Rotherham, Hibs & Sheff Wednesday on my main bet and another acca on Villa, Huddersfield, Saints, Swindon, Arbroath & Alloa. I'll have a bet on the euro coupon later on bix. I usually avoid the french teams as i can never seem to get them right, however i do really fancy Lyon at home to Lille. They were so poor in midweek against APOEL in the CL and need to bounce back. Fingers crossed for a lucky days punting!

Yeah i know mate. West Ham are really pissing me off at the minute and i hope they don't go up and the same applies to Huddersfield but i'm not bitter! 8/

Lazio getting right on my tits as they are 2-0 down with 10 men now and it another case of last team needed. They are third and at home for fecks sake! Having said that i think Bologna beat Inter away a few weeks ago so they can cause upsets.

Football betting tips .............

Take a £20 pound note, tear it into small pieces, and flush it down the toilet.

It saves the anticipation and the subsequent grief and disappointment.

Exeter fans find this ritual much more beneficial than addicted gamblers! :lol:
