Swimming Against the Tide

[bolt pp]

This week's card  does look the hardest for quite a while, a few small bets, but nothing to get over excited about imo:

LAY 300pts Arsenal @ 1.38
200pts Stoke @ 2.88
200pts Sheff Weds @ 2.74
200pts Preston @ 3.15
100pts Plymouth @ 3.5
100pts Doncaster @ 5.1

Tough though.

has this concept evolved?

was arsenal heavily backed? i thought the idea was twofold; back teams being opposed and in trouble, arsenal are bang in trouble so how come a lay? does the weight of money part supersede the part where a team are in trouble or do you just impart your own feeling to a game?

i only ask because when a system like this deviates so much from its initial forumala it just becomes opinionated punting dosent it?, and i think it's a good system.

Arsenal were backed off the boards.

They opened about 1.5 and were backed into 1.36 (I think).

That is a pretty massive move in a Premiership match with well over £1 million traded.

200pts Fulham @ 1.95

Get on!

do you do requests mr camel?

if so id like a super sick acca, 20-1 minimum, 4+ selections,  tyvm.

[GlasgowBandit]

1.78 for Celtic to beat Motherwell on betfair looks tasty.  Would seem that everyone now believes Celtic to be in crisis.  Not far off the mark IMO but 4/5 is value.

I don't know why I bother to pick bets for myself, Camel is the business

  Nice one and thank you again

Chelsea are 19.5 on Betfair to win the league.  Is it possible for Man Utd to give up 10 pts with 12 games to go?  Their run in is marginally harder.  Any thoughts?  I might just have a hard time accepting Man Utd being successful, but I think 19.5 is worth a few shillings.

You've had enough time to get used to the thought....

Bad end to the week, but it was due I suppose, I had been running super hot before this downswong.

Should definitely have had more on Fulham today, they were a great bet at virtually Evens.

Do you have any/recommend any Champions Leagues bets?

[TheChipPrince]

Spurs too short at 2.3ish?

[Colchester Kev]

Dreading tonights game ... a fkin "must not lose" game is not good for the old ticker !

[Rookie (Rodney)]

Think Spurs will win confortably. Money will be going where my mouth is.
