Tips for Tikay

[Ironside]

Did you get on the Swedish Viking?

[BigAdz]

Never keen to put up an odds on shot, but with pretty much everyone in our team playing so much better than their team, does the 8/11 on us to win the Ryder Cup look worth a sizeable investment

110 to win 80?

220 to win 160?

8/11 and only 4/7 on Betty, I believe the mantra means this is a very good bet?

not a great start. Furyk -5 was our star, Duboisson, Walker and Stricker -2 did well, Reed and Rose -1 ok, Scott and Matsuyama evens, and seven of the selected golfers over par...

Hills are joint biggest at 8-11, and are still intent on giving away money on July being the hottest month.

The double (8-11 and 4-9) comes to 6-4. Sounds ice creamy but isn't imo.

Morning Mr T.

I have been a big supporter of Dimitrov this year and I think he is a good bet for the US open. However he has not been at his best this tournament, going to 3 sets in both matches. He pulled out of last weeks tournament through flu and I don't think he is fit. Today he faces Anderson who has a huge serve and will win a lot of easy points. Their last match had 2 tie breaks in the 3 sets and I see this going the same way. Dimitrov has been getting a lot of double faults as well and I can see Anderson edging the match.

Suggest £20 Anderson @ 9/5 with betvictor.

That's one of the most incredible decisions ever.  The sub had no impact at all on the result.  Common sense should have prevailed.  Celtic keeper must be gutted now as this was his 'escape route' to the EPL. 

[claypole]

Completely agree it's an embarrassing decision

[arbboy]

Pretty sure if it was the other way around Warsaw wouldn't have got this decision as they don't sell the same TV right's etc for the money men globally as Celtic do.

Not an easy draw for Arsenal either.

[superwomble]

Have been having a quick look at the market for most clean sheets in the Premier League this season. I was thinking Chelsea - whichever goalkeeper they go for they'll have a great one, and their back four plus back ups are solid.

The other contenders would probably be Man City who are always vulnerable, especially if Kompany is out for any period of time; Arsenal who are no longer the kings of 1-0; Liverpool who, again are leaky; and ManUre, who currently have Jonny Evans, Chris Smalling and Phil Jones as their CBs.

What do others think, and if you agree what price would you have Chelsea?

Bet suggestion:

Conference Premier 'to finish in bottom 4' - Dover Athletic

Betting Emporium's non-league man Alan Alger tipped Dartford, Macclesfield and Welling, with the fourth to come from Dover, Altrincham and Nuneaton. He has since tweeted his prediction that Dover will come bottom.

I am a Dover fan. I saw us throughout last season and we were hugely lucky to scrape into the play-offs. We have hardly strengthened the team, which looked a poor Conference South team last season. I can see nothing but a relegation battle.

Macclesfield are 5/4 and Welling are 15/8 - I would see us as much more likely to go down than them. Dartford are 5/4 and have just signed Peter Sweeney - ex-Wimbledon, over 250 league games, 29 years old. Dover's star signing is Stefan Payne, no league experience, poor scoring record and history of bad attitude.  You can get 7/4 for Dover to finish bottom 4 with Skuy, and 6/4 with Bald and Billy. Looks pretty good value to me so suggest £50 on Dover to finish in bottom 4.

[Doobs]

I know that thread can't get on with Spoils, but Furyk is 14/1 with them, you get money back for 2nd and 3rd, which makes it equivalent to the 16/1 on Betfair.

In addition they pay 5 places still, so you get 7/2 five places when betfair is just over 2/1.  People who can get on really should (max is £100 for the refund)

To give you some idea how good that is the 14/1 and 4 places elsewhere must still be a decent enough bet.

It seems like it's Chelsea's to lose, I agree. Probably one of those 'locking your money up for nine months to double it' bets, though.

I would prefer to back Chelsea to be the last team to be unbeaten in the league at 11/5.
