Wigan Blackburn not the kind of game I'd personally go for on a goals galore, but I hope it comes off anyway.

Not that you need luck or anything based on the last week!

[peterborofox]

Just need West Ham and Birmingham to score tomorrow and I have won on my goals galore.

[Guest BlueBrett]

If todays games had finished after 85 minutes I'd be minted. A curse on late drama and excitement!

[m00nie]

villa killed me on a 7 team accu.. not one horse came in....bamba didnt score.. bad day at the bookies.. but city won so still smiling..

[SeCrEt FoX]

Man city , Spurs , Ipswich , CITY , Dull , Bournemouth and Brighton to win for £108.16 Needed Spurs to win on my accumulator they scored in last min and Bournemouth conceded at same time fooking gutted.

[Salieri]

Not a good day yesterday.

Trying again today with a fiver on on the draw (HT and FT) in the Swansea - Cardiff match (4-1).

If that wins i'll undoubtedly blow the winnings on a failed wager on the Chelsea - Liverpool match.

[Matt]

Torres to score anytime and Chelsea to win - 7/4. Not a bad bet, I might regret it.

Don't like Chelsea but would love Chelsea to win with Torres scoring today just to wind the bitter plastic Scousers up. I know a majority of Chelsea fans are plastics too but theres more amunition to wind plastic Scousers up here.

Bang goes that then.

This is a boring game.

Anyone bothering with League 1/2 games midweek?

[Guest ttfn]

Interesting Championship top goalscorer odds on Betfair.

Lewis McGugan, 11 goals so far - 4/1.

Andy King, 12 goals so far - 25/1.

Do play off goals count in this?

Might be worth a few quid on Kingy, great odds. Although if I do it, he'll immediately stop scoring so I probably shouldn't.

[peterborofox]

Anyone ever bet on the wrong game only to realise the moment you get out the shop?!

I have literally chucked two quid away now, have to go and try again tomorrow!

Not the wrong game but I accidentally stuck 2 quid on Agger first scorer and Liverpool to win 2-0 against Stoke. Nearly turned out to be the greatest mistake ever!

I managed to put games to be draws rather than away wins, so I'm now hoping Iran hold Russia, Luxemburg hold Slovakia, and Malta hold Switzerland, and if my other results come in I'll win £500 odd quid. Cant see it happening somehow!

I'd better win when I do it again or I'll be even more out of pocket. I am yet to taste any success yet!

Did something similar once, stuck fiver on Gallas instead of Hasselbaink to score first. Won £200.

[Unit]

Thought i'd try football betting again, little £1 accy

1 Wins from 1 lines

Bury (Win), Ivory Coast / Ivory Coast (Win), Rochdale (Win), Leyton Orient (Win) £26.38

This from a few days ago

15 Wins from 15 lines

Man City (Win), Kilcrea Kim (Win), Medermit (Win), Wayward Prince (Win) £18.28

[Turtles Head]

They were top two months ago though, weren't they?

Here's a cheeky little tip for y'all.

Been looking closely at games, and a lot of games finish 2-1. You'll always get 7/1 at least for this, so a pound on either team to win 2-1 and If it comes in you're in profit. If not you've lost £2. Nice bit of fun

They were all top, yeah. Not so confident in it now, teams chasing look strong in nearly all leagues.

Got 30 on

Leicester

Chesterfield

Brighton

Arsenal

Cardiff

Payout would be just under 400

Pretty sure I couldnt get the Crewe game for GoalsGalore in Ladbrokes due to ti not being on the slip, I also wanted Posh as they are dead certs fro scoring and conceding.

Anyway my weekend bets:

Cov vs Palace

Boro vs Swansea

Norwich vs Reading

Then accumalator:

Cardiff to beat Scunny

Hull to beat PNE

Brighton to beat Hartlepool

Colchester to beat Swindon

So'ton to beat Carlisile

And goals galore:

Blackpool vs Villa

Norwich vs Reading

Watford vs Burnley

Rochdale vs Sheff Wed

Walsall vs Bournemouth

put mine on at betfred.

didnt fancy Posh because Charlton have kept 3 clean sheets on the trot but posh are normally bankers.

I was a bit unsure about Posh after looking at Charltons results and seeing those clean sheets, but you also get the feeling that they are going to concede sooner and later, so I probably would have included them.

Its irrelevant not thought anyway!

[Guest BlueBrett]

Alright everyone are you ready for this...

Leicester win 4-1

Sunderland Spurs 2-2

Manu Mancity 2-2

Brum Stoke 1-1

Blackpool Villa 2-2

10p Lucky 31 is going to win me over 200k

[Guest BlueBrett]

Just noticed Hills are doing an enhanced price Rooney and Tevez anytime double at 5-1. That has to be value surely?

[Uncle Phil]

Got an accumulator on teams I don't like today, so come on Stoke, Cardiff, Coventry, Leeds and Bournemouth.

5 pound on, hopefully get 250 back.

[Ashley]

Liverpool let me down on £29.71.
