Fans of graphs, snow, statistics or Istanbul will be pleased; fans of statistics of snowfall in Istanbul expressed in graph form will be delighted:

9.9 on the Tighty Geek Scale, incredible.

Is there one for Las Vegas in June?

Without looking, I'm guessing it'd be quite easy to colour in. You wouldn't need to get too many crayolas out.

Couldn't find an outright market this morning for the London Chess Classic and I'll likely be offline for most of the day. Saw Marathon was doing the individual group games, but that's about as easy as picking the winner of a women's skiing event a 150/1 winner of a cycling race a loser from Adz

Daily Report

Profit on Month £189.41

Outstanding Bets £3080.66

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aia1Hxq-NDNWdFk3UmlTSXMzTjRBTVNfOWRndVFsZHc&usp=drive_web#gid=33

A profit of £151 yesterday thanks to BigAdz's latest, at Fontwell. Quite a race I gather, and a profit of £216

In the Cl games last night Gotze e/w produced a profit. Ronaldo e/w came in for a small loss

Benzema, Ribery, Ronaldo hatr-trick and Even Stevens at Southwell did not come in to reduce the profit on the day


In longer term bets Peterborough reached the Southern final of the JPT, now two games away from the trophy and a return from the rabid Fenman from a bet placed at 11/1

Tonight is the key night for the Napoli CL bet. Napoli, currently level with Borussia Dortmund, need to finish on a greater points total than the German side to finish above them as they trail 4-3 in a hypothetical aggregate score from their two group meetings. They host Arsenal, and are up against it with Dortmund playing Marseille

We have Atletico Madrid to beat Porto too

The reference in the photo-montage to Pellegrini (sp?) interested me.

I definitely do NOT blame him for not being aware, or understanding, the precise position.

But it surely beggars belief that with all the experts at his disposal, analytics, computer analysis, coaches for each position, scouts galore, experts in this that & the other, and an investment of hundreds of millions of pounds, nobody knew the rules.

 Had a few busy days and needed to settle down and catch up on Fred. Took about two hours. Can't leave you guys alone for two minutes.
 
 I think the last three times I have not been here too much I have come back to find that I missed a massive Adzzy winner. Very well done mate, you are absolutely on fire, hope you got the lot.

[Karabiner]

It is mathematically possible for three teams to finish on 12 points in Arsenal's CL group should Napoli beat Arsenal and Dortmund beat Marseille.

If this happens "the two qualifiers will be decided by the precise scorelines between the three teams" according to EUFA, whatever that means.

I must say Neil, I tip my hat to you, that is gloriously subtle & as thin as thin gets. Congrats.

So, I guess we are obliged to ask two things.

1) What did you get up to this weekend, anything interesting?

2) Did you use the money to at last invest in some better quality shirts? Matalan no longer cuts it I'm afraid.

As I said in my report

The combined score for the two Napoli Dortmund games was 4-3 Dortmund so in the event of ties on points after tonight Dortmund rank above Napoli, hence why I said they need to finish with more points than Dortmund

It is likely that Dortmund beat Marseille, hence why Napoli are up against it

As Arsenal beat Napoli 2-0 in London, iirc, things only get interesting then if Napoli beat Arsenal by more than 2 tonight

Summary. The Napoli CL bet is in severe trouble

What is confusing me is that it has been reported that in order to qualify Napoli need to get a better result v's Arsenal than Dortmund get v's Marseille.

I assumed that meant goals ergo if Dortmund win 1-0, then 2-0 would be enough to see Napoli through ahead of them.

No thats not true

If its 1-0 Dortmund and 2-0 Napoli Dortmund and Arsenal go through (on Dortmund and Napoli head to head aggregate score)

if Dortmund win, Napoli can only go through by winining by 3+ and knocking out Arsenal

Thread is both a Marseille and Napoli supporter tonight

I like the thread.

365 do a bet for tonight under tournament totals : highest scoring team in champions league on 11/12/2013: e/w 1/4 1/2/3. If there might be a goal fest in Napoli tonight due to what might need to happen is there any love for Napoli 16-1 or Arsenal 20-1?
