I enjoyed the festive one by Boldedge and made a decent profit from it, and ive been studying ahead of tomorrows games, but its not the festive period anymore so thought id start a new thread to ongo.

So what does everyone think about tomorrow.

I was saddened to see Silo and Bandit ignore my tip for Hartlepool the other day and put Leeds in their coupons, as we were very lucky to get a last minute equaliser, and i would be tempted to tip Swansea tomorrow, but am put off by the short price. Maybe the bookies are growing wise to Leeds's lack of ability.

Im gona have a major look now, will get back in a bit

Charlton are an Excellent bet to beat Leicester tomorrow

Leicester have picked up a bit but are basically still a side lacking confidence and pace in key areas, and Holloway cannot begin changing this until January

We also have an awful home record stretching back three seasons

Charlton are a touch inconsistent but what they do have is pace to burn, especially up front, with McCleod and Varney alongside Iwelumo

Whilst of course I want Leicester to win, I''m on Charlton..best priced nearly 2-1.

Luton seem to defy a lot of recent problems ...went into admin docked 10 points and then the form started picking up

beat Forest in the FA Cup to draw Liverpool in the 3rd and then on boxing day went down to 8 men away at Bristol R and 1-0 down scored to get a point!

Whilst I agree the problems are ongoing there seems a remarkable spirit in the side and Port Vale are AWFUL, and have been all season being bottom of the table

I would not be backing them

my three other bets this weekend

Carlisle to beat Bristol Rovers away, best price 6-4

Norwich at home to Wolves draw best price 5/2..McCarthy sets up Wolves to draw each away match, seen them twice away this season and boring is an understatement. Norwich recovering a little but not strong enough to mean this isn't a good bet

Top of the table clash in div two darlington at home to MK Dons, draw at 9/4...MK Dons tough to beat, likely to be a stalemate

In theory yes, in practice no. Iwelumo is carrying a quite serious ankle injury but is playing through it as there's noone to replace him. Varney is currently playing in midfiels and McCleod's only ever scored once. The difference though may be Dickson who's just been called back early from a loan spell, has pace and does know how to score.

I like the look of Charlton also, and looked at MK Dons again this weekend. Darlington arent a great side in my opinion, and MK Dons are 6 points clear, decent away from home and a decent price taking this into account.

Saying that, I think ill just have one bet tomorrow but make it a fairly large one:

2pts Win Swindon away at Bournemouth @ 7/4
1pt Draw - Norwich v Wolves @23/10

Edit: Gona copy off Tightend and take the draw in Norwich v Wolves aswell. Made a decent amount so far this season backing Wolves to draw away and can see that continuing tomorrow against an improving Norwich outfit.

I would not be backing them

Right I saw Port Vale on Boxing day against Walsall, they were pretty poor, had 3 players injured and subbed before half time and look short of goals, I wouldnt be backing them tommorrow... McGoldrick on loan from Southampton does well playing left mid, but he's really a STK... Sinnott will need time to turn them around...

I also saw Luton last saturday beat Tranmere 1-0, there formation is different to anything else in this division and Tranmere adapting themselves to play 4-5-1 (which Ronnie Moore never does), they have some good quality...


my three other bets this weekend

Carlisle to beat Bristol Rovers away, best price 6-4


Struggling away (Carlisle), but Rovers are at home, saw them at Swindon last month and their midfield looks devoid of goals, they rely too much on Lambert...

I could not agree more.. City not lost at home all season, my heart and mind sees a draw and maybe even a city win here.. Value on both City & Draw..

Preston v Cardiff AWAY
Mansfield v Acc Stanley AWAY




No, Preston are improving consistently under Irvine..Cardiff are pretty lacklustre away

Mansfield are poor but when I saw Accrington they were v uninspiring too, draw for me

Hope they come in for you though!
