Tips for Tikay

[tikay]

This is the pitch for the first Test Match in pretoria this Wednesday South Africa v Australia

Weather permitting, this game simply cannot be a draw, the pitch is used, looks old and tired and worn

Not a drop of rain predicted either, all of which should see the win the toss and bat decision

February 2013's third Test lasted a mere three days on a better wicket than this

the home side have lost just once in 18 Tests here (14 wins), a defeat with an asterisk hovering over it given the subsequent match-fixing revelations (Hanse Cronje declaration to let England win)

Australia haven't played a test here since 1997

Neither side have strength in spin but Mitchell Johnson and Dale Steyn are going to be lethal bowling to the near end in the photo, due to variable bounce


We can play all this in a variety of ways

the draw is already a 100-30 outsider. We could lay that

We could wait for the toss and back either side odds against, SA currently 5/4, Australia currently 2/1. Whoever wins the toss should be a de facto odds on shot


Match starts on Wednesday 8.30am so this is a heads up for an early morning bet.

Even if we wait for the toss, presumably it'd still be a good bet?

Loved the photo of that medium roller.

Just don't wear the jacket from the last time:

Jeeves: I had assumed it had got into your wardrobe by mistake, Sir, or else that it had been placed there by your enemies.
Bertie: I'll have you know, Jeeves, that I bought this in Cannes!
Jeeves: And wore it, Sir?
Bertie: Every night at the casino. Beautiful women used to try and catch my eye!
Jeeves: Presumably, they thought you were a waiter, Sir.

Tal!

You forgot to use the Jeeves account, sigh.

The game is up now, Jeeves cover has been blown.

Wanted to wait for more firms to price up but be surprised if we beat 6-1

Suggest £30 win Danisa 6-1 vcbet

reasoning to follow later fancy potentially a few more dependent on prices

9/2 now.

Same reply, snoozed & losed.

Thanks, I've swerved it @ 9/2, but will get on if you say so.

I make it a 7/2 shot so reduce the bet to £20 at 9/2 please

[horseplayer]

9/2 has now gone as well

really wish vc would stop pricing southwell at 2 o clock the night before

 Sorry, forgot the important bit...they were laying 2/1 Ruby. Back to 1/2 now. They claim this is just the start of their enhancements in the lead-up to the Festival.

 Just watched the race from yesterday again and I love the Ryan Air plan Adz. Also pretty sure we'll just get our money back for Gold Cup so must have been a great bet.

 Feel like the winner at 10/1 is probably still great value for the Gold Cup (nrnb pretty important here).

Hulk Hogan is 9/2 with Spoils, same each-way stips as tree sicks five.

If Spoils account is spoiled, one suggests sir open an account with Shawnymac, and gets the free bet. Same prices as spoils.

Didn't we back someone for League two a few weeks ago for TGS?

I know f all about lower leagues so don't remember name and can't find it in my records but sure we did.

After this weekend of head scratching and lost bets, I hope I remember how to get home tonight.

Billy Kee, Burton

Billy is in a cold scoring stretch, his attentions are currently on a lady 20 years his senior (according to the local rag).

Such are the vagaries of sports betting

Tikay would probably have me banned if I posted the first one liner that came to mind

Forgive me, but we're just trying to make sure the bookies can't find the tips by means of a simple Google search. That post would take the team at Bletchley Park a week to make sense of!



My first is in Spaniel but not in Canoe
My second in Headwear but never in Shoe...

Cheers Tighty,

Hopefully I didn't go mad on the dirty little oik.

[TightEnd]

by the way, can we have a less cryptic idea who shawnymac is please?
