L13 Winter 2009 : Week 1 BotW

Hola,
Scoresheets by 11.59 tomorrow please – there will be no more reminders! Remember if you miss the early kick off you can send in scores for games that haven’t kicked off and if you miss the 3 o’clocks you can send in for the 5.15 game onwarsd etc etc

Bet of the Week in it’s new guise will kick off proper next week but to give you an example, I present the following

7 Homes – Liverpool / Spurs / WBA / Charlton / Huddersfield / Rochdale / Rotherham @ 14/1
So if this came in, £8 (initial £1 stake + half the winnings) would go the “spot prize place” and £7 to the person who selected the bet
3 Draws – Birmingham / Derby / MK Dons @ 34/1
So if this came in, £18 (initial £1 stake + half the winnings) would go the “spot prize place” and £17 to the person who selected the bet
3 Aways – Villa / Man Utd / Middlesbro @ 6/1
So if this came in, £4 (initial £1 stake + half the winnings) would go the “spot prize place” and £3 to the person who selected the bet

Result: LOSE

Cheers,
Pab


L13 Spring 2009 : Week 13 BotW

Final Bet of the Week (the last in this format – look out for exciting feature next season!) is a two pronged attack to try and get us into the black…

First up – Rich Lee…

my first win for ages, was considering retiring myself as I’ve been so crap. Pab you would have been proud, you got a mention in the end of season awards ’taxi’ category last night for that Berbatovesk penalty of yours, unfort you weren’t the winner.

Re bet, could go silly with a Tranmere away victory or safer with 3 homes: Tottenham, Chelsea, Liverpool

Safe to say he chose not to go with the Wools option and backed the treble @ 2/1

Result: WIN!

Next, Tony Bowley…

Can I offer a championship alternative for those who like the man’s version of the game? (for man’s substitute “poor”).

Reading to beat Birmingham(c’mon you Royals!).

Palace to draw with the Blades. (Warnock’s revenge).

Canaries to fall of the perch at the Valley. Charlton Norwich draw.

Could just as easily go the other way but that’s why we love it!

And the tricky trees are rebuilding under King Billy, get your cheque book out Doughty, so the good times are rolling back across the City Ground. Promised land here we come!

26/1 for that triptych – fingers crossed…

Result: LOSE -£20.00

Cheers,
Pab


L13 Spring 2009 : Week 12 BotW

Bet of the Week comes from Jon Allin – and there’s me thinking he’d target some 0-0s…

A quick away treble for the BOTW… Burnley, Forest & Peterborough. Think you can get about 8/1 on that little beauty.

Result: LOSE -£25.00

Cheers,
Pab
