I've got £35 on WBA at 9.4 (8.4/1) on Betfair. I reckon we'll win but I think WBA have a better than 8.4/1 chance of winning (I'd have priced them at 5/1). I did the same last season and backed WBA at 10/1 even though I thought we'd win and I made a very big profit on the game.
I know some people have issues about betting against yer own team but as a "value punter" I back on-or-against whoever I think represents the best value.
I think I would agree with you if we were challenging for trophies. I could never see myself backing against us in a hugely pivotal game where a loss would really hurt (even more than usual) because I wouldn't want to win money because my team have just royally fucked-up. If it's a standard league game and our chances of winning the league are remote (as they are at present) I don't have a major issue with it.
I'm not sure why Carlisle are priced so high to beat bottom of the table Bristol City, so i've backed them at 3.25
It's a surprisingly big price but I'm gonna give it a miss because I think it could be a low scoring game and would price both teams at about 2.9 and the draw marginally above 3.0.
I'm struggling to find anything to get overly excited about; I have a few quid laying Chesterfield at Bristol Rovers and a few quid on WBA but that's about it (apart from 1st goalscorer bets). I might invest a bit more at half time.
great betting
Cheers SO, I got £110 back from the over 6 goals because a mate of mine came around to watch the game; I told him about my bet so he asked me to stick 10 on for him and I decided to up my stake to £10 too
The betfair site went down at 2:30 which stopped me placing any other bets on this afternoons games. Normaly this would infuriate me but I was struggling to find too many games to get my teeth into anyway.
I got £15 on Graham 1st goal Hull v Stoke to win £130
I won £25 on a Cardiff and QPR double today, the only other bet i've got on is over 3.5 goals in the Barca-Villareal game
For some reason Roma were about 12/5 to beat Ac milan who haven't been winning much. Put £12 on them to win £30, Destro has made it 1-0 already
Just put a big chunk on Mackay for next WBA manager. Price is dropping like crazy!
Following you in on that over 2.5 looks a cracking bet the way Sherwood sets his team up.
Good job done it with b365 at least I get the 11 bets.
Was thinking 5 ta 2 was too good to be true.
Was too hungover to do any studying this morning.
Ah well at least it's a profit.
Having a few quid on Villa tomorrow at Goodison.
Everton are crippled with injuries and Villa will be full of confidence after the comeback against West Brom the other night.
Having a bet on Villa to win at 6s.
Also having a small bet on Villa to win and both teams to score at 11s.
Looks like value to me.

Atletico Juve and Madrid treble
Yeah Notts Co should be too strong for Yeovil, I like their line up and Yeovil look limited as an attacking force. Also, Exeter v Shrews features 2 of the better teams in division2 and despite their poor start to the season Exeter are coming into form............with home advantage they have every chance against Shrews and 3/1 is a great price.
I stand by my Middlesbro "no bet" because Wigan seem to have a stronger team out than they have in recent weeks.
