Football 12/13

[Josedinho]

I'm on Huddersfield top promoted club. 11/4 with stanjames. Made some solid signings and so far managed to keep rhodes. They underperformed last season. Don't think there is much between the promoted teams. Charlton ran away with the league but weren't exactly flying at the end of the season. Wednesday have just about made the necessary signings but don't think we've done much above that.
Camel and ChipPrince reckon it's a good price too.

[TheChipPrince]

So far, had plenty, with few more to come this week I think I've spotted.

12 of 30 have shortened since placed, none lengthed, as always good value losers

Hnadicaps taken are best available, Aldershot for example are +24 with Bet365 but theres around 30 more points spread over the other teams in the divison (quite complicated and prepared to be proven wrong btw).

Thoughts on these?

Vardy top leicester gs 5/1
Jutkiewicz top boro gs 5/1
Morison top norwich gs 4/1
Maguire top Wednesday gs 5/1

I am not quite sure on Maquire for us.

I watched the West Brom game and he didn't look impressive and was by far to selfish at times, I think the whole team clicked onto his selfishness at times. I still wonder why Derby let him go if he was any good? I don't reccomend the bet, for sure.

[Waz1892]

Torres at 10/1 top goalscorr

[The Camel]

Torres at 10/1 top goalscorr

For those of you that don't understand betting if Waz bets £10 on this, he will lose £10.

(an old joke, but an apt one here)

Bit harsh. 10-1 for top Chelsea goalscorer looks like it might make a small profit. Not sure enough to back it heavily tho.

[DungBeetle]

"Borini over 6.5 Prem goals.  5/6  BetVictor  "

Blimey that's a great bet.  1/2 shot for me.

All about being against Madine. His price is too short for somebody with his suspension record and injury problems. Will probably turn out we'll buy a new striker and he may be the value but Maguire will be first XI for now. Selfishness is a positive for top scorer bets too. I don't want him passing to Madine. Never really got a chance at Derby and sometimes different people work in different places. Ipswich let Jordan Rhodes go once upon a time.

[Karabiner]

Sunderland's squad looks very light me notwithstanding the imminent purchase of Fletcher.

If there are no young full-backs coming through that defence seems to be aging and paceless.

I've always been a big MoN fan but this year I'm tempted to dabble on them at a big price for the drop.

I know it's down to the time left on respective contracts but thee fact Fletcher is going to cost 3/4 of RVP is pretty ridic.

[TightEnd]

Agree on Sunderland. Looks a weak squad, and the price paid for Fletcher reflects a real keenness to get some options up top where they looked to be really lacking


For those who were discussing Vardy at LCFC, he started the final pre-season friendly up front with Beckford v Sunderland, same combination up front for the League Cup tonight

Chatter that this will persist into the start of the league campaign, Nugent on the bench

[claypole]

At the moment my only plays are;

Charlie Austin EW Top Championship 25s
Giroud +8.5 goals (shamelessly nicked from Dubai) at 5/6
QPR top London club group B v WH, Fulham 11/4 (long gone)

Love the Borini bet....

Think will be backing Leicester - think is short enough but like Pearson and think hell get it right thi year

Will be throwing MK Dons, Man Utd, Rotherham and Luton in for a speculative row of houses bet with decent EW returns

Premiership goalscorer - sure there is some value there, but too many unknowns for me at this stage re: RVP, Caroll, the way Chelsea will play re Hazard....and Tevez.  Think I'm going to watch and bet a few weeks in.

[ChipRich]

Yeah, got on Sunderland for releagtion at 12s about 3 weeks ago. Missed the 14s by about a day, fml. Usually a big MoN fan but the squad looks really woeful and spending possibly 14mill on Fletcher, wtf!?

Also on Jelavic top Prem Scorer 33/1 e/w.

Nugent Top Cship Scorer 50/1 e/w (fml i think though. Didnt sell Beckford and Beckford and Vardy been playing well together pre season)

Will be having some sort of 4 league acca too, undecided yet. Had City, Reading, Charlton and fkin Crawley (who decided they would be top at Xmas? and then sell all best players) last season for £14k. No good and no i didnt do it e/w. Ha

[anthonyl]

rumours picking up we are bringing in beckford.

can't see it myself, but Gus loves him.

[77dave]

I got tipped Northampton to grab promotion this season, by a scout of theirs.

They have a small squad but good quality for this level.

knocked Cardiff out of the cup last night.
