Scottish related in a way but I fully expected Alex Neil to hve Gary Hooper back in the Norwich line up today as its a player he would have been very familiar after his time up here. As a result I meant to back Hooper in my anytime lucky 15, sadly I I forgot to place the bet earlier. I'm literally rushed off y feet had to go do a big shop today, the Mrs is having her pal and man over for dinner which inevitably eans I had to cook as well. so from 9 - 12 ish we were shopping, from 12:30 - 2:49 (alarm was set) I was placing a few bets. Only remembered the lanytime lucky 15 when I heard the ping on sky sports app as I was trying to make lunch at same time for the niece. FML.
The upside is I never backed Airdrie as a single, but I did have them in my muggy acca. WP me.
Nice wins for Dundee/Morton. Shame about the other games being off. I have made a smallish profit but had the anytime scorer got on we'd have been quids in.

Celtic have approached Dundee United over a pre-contract negotiation for Gary McKay Steven, could be a good signing for us. But our record from signing other Scottish clubs in recent times isn't great.
Happy to be corrected but only Agathe, McNamara and Brown stand out. There are far more failures imo.

Probably. I think Commons wil go to Bolton, I've thought this since Lennon got the job. GMS has loads of potential, I hope he turns out to be as good as McNamara/Agathe and not a Willo Flood/David Fernandez type for us. |

Quite a few games postponed today, and even in places were games go ahead conditions are likely to be tricky.
I'm stickiing up a few bankers to start with and I'll pop up a few lively bets that should get us a sweat. even in such cold conditions.
As a small single, I think there might be a bit o value in backing Hamilton against Celtic in the live game at 12.45, I thought about 13/2 was the right price for Accies and can see there is 15/2 available. Celtic never managed to win any of their bounce games in Gran Canaria last week. Remains to see if there will be a bit of rust there as there hasn't been a competitive match in 12 days. Hamilton obviously suffered the loss of their manager last week and they were caught cold by Dundee United mid-week and after going down 2 - 0 fought back to 2 - 2. From a betting perspective I'd hope they have snapped out their self pitty mode and give Celtic a game. As a Celtic fan I obviously want us to win by a few but at 15/2 Coral need punished.
Aberdeen are probably the biggest banker in the SPL at the moment but I think they are actually plenty short enough today and would struggle to back them at the prices.
I quite like Thistle away to St Johnstone, Thistle haven't played near as bad as the results suggest according to my season ticket holding former colleague. They have been struggling with injuries but appear to have a full compliment to chose from today PTFC @ 12/5 With Coral/Baldy/Tote.
Big game in the Championshp for me is Falkirk v Queen of the South. I must admit I was surprised to see The Doonhammers at 9/4. Seems plenty generous. I'd have made them a good bit shorter. They are a decent footballing team but a tad inconsistent and if they turn up today the 9/4 could look pretty big at full time.
The last outsider of the ones I think will provide a sweat today is Airdrie, I expect them to bounceback from last week against the inconsistent Dunfermline. Airdrie have done relatively well for me in games I have backed them. 18/5 still seems a bit big. I have been impressed by how Gary Bollan has turned things around after a pretty horrendous start to the season. I expect to see him land a bigger job in future.
The Bankers:
Morton 5/6
Peterhead 3/4
Stranraer 5/6

This is going pretty bad today. Should have just left it. I almost did.
If we somehow get lucky and escape this I may start believing in the Holy one again.
