Tips for Tikay

[Tal]

Who put up the tip on the US Economist or Senate head?

I think I have a similar angle and could do with an opinion

I think that was Nakor.

Close, it was neeko.

Found his posts. Thanks, Tonji, anyway.

Neeko - I've sent you a PM if you happen across this.

Phil Taylor was on the receiving end of a tonking from MVG last week in his first competitive match with his new darts which saw Lewis installed as favourite for their match on Thursday.  Taylor has been getting some further competitive action this weekend and has posted multiple 100+ averages and a 9-darter. There is still some 6/4 left, recommend £40.

Thanks Bazza, am following the man in form, after your lovely spot on Saturday.

We have £40 @ 6/4 with Corals.

Adz, what did you make of Plinth today? I didn't see the race but know he came third, some forms are now 25-1. What's your thoughts?

Working off phone at the mo, and missed the race. From the wirte up looks like he hit most of the hurdles.

I thought he had Ivan to beat. He did. Will reserve judgement until I see it tomorrow, but I'm on anyway, so I hope he still takes up the engagement.

Hayley has just finished skating on DOI, 36.5 out of 40, 2 x 9.5 in there as well. Great comments from the judges. Can't see how she will not be popular with the public, so she will be safe again this week.

One of may fav football quotes

"In February 2011, Ivorian football manager and SuperSport television pundit Mamadou Gaye responded to a question asking who he thought would win the 2011 U-17 World Cup with "...any of the four team representing us [Africa] in the world cup U17 can win the trophee(sic), because at that level we like cheating on our age.""

I have heard back from my top secret - TOP SECRET - consultant and haven't been put off, although I'll happily accept responsibility for the abuse if this one falls flat. Only the abuse, mind...

The second Deputy Governor spot in the Monetary Policy Committee gets announced soon. Pressure is building on the Government to appoint a woman to the all-male committee, whose job it is to set interest rates. Even the Governor himself (Mark Carney, not Paul Ince) has commented that there is something of a 'Gentlemen's Club' feel to it. There are actually few candidates who would be suitable, were the decision to be taken that a woman should be chosen. The 5/4 jolly has a Y chromosome, so let's count him out.

Margaret Hogg is 4/1 and the favourite woman. She was Carney's first appointment at the Bank of England as Chief Operating Officer and is his eyes and ears at the Bank. She also is the daughter of a Tory politician of note (think cleaning out moats...) and a Baroness. The Bank of England only has one woman at its top table and appointing her to a different senior position would create a headache for the Bank. I'm thinking no.

There is also Lucrezia Reichlin. She has a very impressive CV, including pioneering economic work and working with the European Central Bank. She specialises in monetary policy. 10/1. I think the only barrier for her would be she is the daughter of Alfonso Reichlin, the prominent Italian communist (wiki tells me, although my Italian isn't all that good). It seems kind of bizarre to say that she'll be fodder for the tabloids if she gets the job, as it would have been said already, plus she's not all that important for the red top rags. She currently is a professor at the London School of Economics.

Sheila Dow and others used to advise the Treasury Select Committe when it was a Labour government. Seems unlikely to me that George Osborne would do something with even the remotest chance of pleasing Ed Balls.

I want to recommend a gambler's bet on Reichlin at 10/1 with the green, Irish bookmaker that rhymes with Daddy Flower. £10?

I like Brighton to win at home to Leeds on Tuesday.
Brighton's form is patchy, and their manager is under a bit of pressure, plus losing Bridcutt is a blow.
On the flip side everyone else is now fit, and they have been playing decent/creating chances, without scoring too many goals.

Leeds aren't great, and still have a bit of behind the scenes distraction.
Brighton should be odds-on (imo), and will probably be 10/11 by the off.
Currently 11/10 which is a bit of value (were 6/5 this morning which has gone now).
Recommend £30 @ 11/10 with BetThread or Lads.

Can't say I love this spot Neil.

Brighton simply not scoring enough goals and Leeds seem to have developed a siege mentality in their last two games with McCormack on fire since his infamous SKY interview.

11/10 actually looks a little on the skinny side to me.

Happy to be proved incorrect though.

Agree about the siege mentality, was my only slight worry.
As for the lack of goals.... 73 shots, 23 on target, 3 goals, in their last 4 home matches.
Teams creating chances but not scoring, makes me want to be with them.

2.1 left in one spot (Totesport) and generally evens/odds on, which I agree, isn't a bet.
Cheers for the feedback Keith... still learning, clearly.
