Not one golden ferret.

I feel duty-bound as a member of the fair-weather golfer's union to point out that golden ferrets only exist if there is an agreement to play ferrets in a particular match ergo not all holed bunker-shots can be considered to be golden ferrets.

In a regular fourball match the stakes are arranged on the first tee and often they will be something like 50p ($1K if you're flushy) bits, birdies and ferrets, bits being nearest to the pin on short-holes, birdies being self-explanatory, and ferrets being up-and-down from a bunker for a par.

Thus the rare golden ferret will be a holed buker-shot for a birdie or better which wins two bits.

Ultimate Value

Ladbrokes have a 12/12/12 special @ 12/1 that any player from Swansea/real Madrid/mansfield/Lincoln/catania/Arbroath/sevilla/Juventus wearing the number 12 shirt scores tonight.  Nathan Dyer scored at Liverpool in the last round for Swansea, he is best price 3/1 anytime tonight.

Nick wright is a striker who plays mainly from the bench for Mansfield.  Haven’t checked others but get on before it goes and check after.

I was restricted to £10, get as much as you can.

Ooh, now that is a FUN Tenner!

Thanks Dwayne.

We have £10 @ 12/1 with Ladbrokes, any "12" to score tonight from the selected games.

thread has 7-1 £20

tikay you hinted that you had laid this off, but didn't I think explain how/how much?

Hi Tikay

I am going to suggest a bet of £30 on WALSALL to be relegated from League 1 @ 7/1 with VC which hopefully will give a similar sweat to Camel's Barnet bet last year but with a better end result.

http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/league-1/relegation

The reason I am recommending the bet is that after a better than anticipated start Walsall are now on a horrific run of 10 league games without a win since the end of September and are perennial relegation contenders and a club with no money who for the past 2 seasons have survived by the skin of their teeth, and at the start of the season they were priced in this market at 6/4 although due to the prospect of Portsmouth being liquidated only VC/Hills and BF had markets with now only BF and VC available.

It is safe to assume that Portsmouth will fill one of the 4 places as once they come out of Administration they will receive a further penalty of -10pts and seem to be a club in disarray furthered by Appletons departure to Blackpool, the other contenders IMHO are Hartlepool (who may appoint Phil Brown as manager this week), Bury, Scunthorpe (recently appointed Brian Laws and showing a bit of form), Coventry and Oldham and again IMO Walsall should definately not be a 7/1 to fill one of 3or4 places against these teams having over achieved in the first third of the season.

Walsall's next few games are
Crawley away
Tranmere away
Hartlepool home
Coventry away
Yeovil home
Colchester home
Mk Dons away
Leyton Orient away and personally I can see only a return of 6/7 points maximum from these fixtures which takes them to January's fixtures which look equally as tough and would expect the price to contract further during this time offering an end of season green out or let it ride option  if they are completely sucked into the battle of which they are currently only 3 points outside.

Flame away...

Well after 4/7 games in the initial post and recc Walsall have achieved 3 points which is about par for the course imo as I had them down for LLWL and instead have gone DDDL so the next few games are crucial but we also need teams like Shrewsbury,Bury, Scunthorpe to be picking up some points along the way as well as we are effectively playing for 2 places atm with Hartlepool and Portsmouth filling the other 2.
The next games are
Walsall v Yeovil
Walsall v Colchester
MK Dons v Walsall
Leyton Orient v Walsall
Jan
Walsall v Stevenage
Walsall v Portsmouth
Preston v Walsall
Walsall v Bournemouth
Colchester vWalsall
Ideally if we can get through the next 2 games without a win for Walsall we are still in the running....

Edit current odds 9/2

Not one golden ferret.

I feel duty-bound as a member of the fair-weather golfer's union to point out that golden ferrets only exist if there is an agreement to play ferrets in a particular match ergo not all holed bunker-shots can be considered to be golden ferrets.

In a regular fourball match the stakes are arranged on the first tee and often they will be something like 50p ($1K if you're flushy) bits, birdies and ferrets, bits being nearest to the pin on short-holes, birdies being self-explanatory, and ferrets being up-and-down from a bunker for a par.

Thus the rare golden ferret will be a holed buker-shot for a birdie or better which wins two bits.

That's interesting, as I understood a ferret to be a chip in from off the green (i.e., it goes down the hole) and a golden ferret going in from the bunker (either a sand reference or just that they were like gold).

The murky world of golfistry, eh?

Is it true Bogey used to be par?

Ah, but do you know what a Gilligan and a whoosh are?

Both excellent additions to gambling on a game of golf.

I'm told that was the case back in 1890, yes, Ralph but will recall, I'm sure.

Yes bogey was the British term for par which at that time was American terminology.

Up until the 1960's the golf balls were a different size too, we used one that was 1.66" in diameter as opposed to the larger American ball which spanned 1.68". When Peter Thompson won five Open Championships during the 1950's and 60's he was described by many as a "small ball specialist".

The 1.68" American ball became the universal size at some time in the late 1960's and from memory we adopted much of their terminology after that, thankfully we still say albatross for three under par as opposed to the American double-eagle.

Love this sort of stuff (you'll be astonished to hear).

My guess would be a Gilligan is the opposite of a Mulligan, so that would be making you play a shot again if you did it really well?

A whoosh has - so to speak - passed me by.

[TL900]

Im also keeping an eye on Thunder vs Hornets tonight but these two are my picks for now. GL

The line on this has moved to -14 so I will be leaving this for tonight. Again, Thunder may well cover the spread but its a big spread and I don't wana get 4th Q owned like we did with whoever it was a while back.

On the plus side, Hawks have moved to -4.5/5 and NYK are now -6.5 very glad i jumped on the NYK line early.

GL all with the #12 bet, pretty sure 90% of the people who read the thread are on that looks like insane value. WP poster
