Tips for Tikay

Bobby Tambling is correct, & the "link" was to the photo of Frank Lampard scoring yesterday, edging him to within two of Tamblling's record haul for Chelsea.

The "diving" stuff was not connected, that was just a reference to 'Spurs Tom Baley.

Very good read indeed.  Captures the depressing essence of it really.

Slow market movement by Coral and WH. Rockets games have been raining points recently. The last 6 games the totals involving Rockets have been 228,217,217,171,238,218.

They have the highest scoring offence in the league and the second worst defence in the league averaging 105 pts and allowing 104 pts per game in the season.

Hawks can let the points fly too if they get hot, especially against a bad defence like the rockets.

Suggest £44 O204.5 Coral/WH

Fwiw I like Palace too at that price.  One decent rule of thumb with a lot of these kind of bets should be that we can get an outlier price which this is.    It is a very difficult thing to beat but if you are getting prices that are slightly out of line then you can eek out an edge.  For years this was basically my entire strategy.  I would formulate opinions and then look for a price.  If every price was pretty much the same I would leave it alone but if I could find someone offering a juicy price i would bet.  Nowadays my approach is a bit more sophisticated out of neccesity because i cannot get a lot of the prices but Fred still can largely and it is the easiest way to a profit.

Also lets not forget Keiths suggestion on Brighton.  They are available at 15/8 with pinnacle and that seems fair to me.

Morning reds, & thanks for the feedback.

We WILL be backing Palace today, very shortly in fact. Not for big numbers, but maybe £30 or £40.

Keith's suggestion for Brighton? If you refer to their away game to Ipswich tomorrow, we are already on, for a rather scary £80.

Unfortunately, we were maybe too quick out of the blocks for once, because we were on before Brighton got beaten up badly at home the other night, so we only got 13/8. The Recommend was at 7/4.

And Ipswich won impressively at home too since we had the bet.

However the tenet behind having the bet still holds true and I still think it's a great bet despite immediate form suggesting otherwise.

I've had more on.

Bit confused here, are you backing Ipswich or Brighton to win?

Brighton as they skipped the fixture jam, which isn´t in the price.

This is Ipswich's 4th game since December 22nd.

Brighton's 2nd.

I just wrote a few words in my Diary about William Rees-Mogg, who passed away yesterday.

Cliffs - sharp, bright, posh.

I must just add this little bit here.

He was an avid cricket fan, & watched Somerset at Taunton whenever he was able.

He said this of Bish-Bash-Bosh.......


The Twenty 20 version of the game is a decadent, dumbed-down, third rate formula for sub-prime cricket

Top bloke, eh?

Thanks Tom.

WH have upped the line to 206.5, but Corals were still at 204.5.

Amazing how often they lag behind everyone else, either because thery are sloppy, or maybe it is deliberate.

Anyway, we have £44 @ 10/11, Corals, OVER 204.5, Atlanta Hawks @ Houston Rockets.
