  • The Game No-one Wants to Win?
    According to some pre-match team news (if we can believe it) tonight’s match between Chelsea and Liverpool is so far down the priority list that it will be surprising if  the managers even turn up. The credibility of the Carling Cup was lost long ago and I doubt we’ll be in for an epic tonight. But take a look at the winners in recent years and you’ll...

  • Carling Cup Quarter Finals Betting
    As you may or may not know, this competition ain’t exactly my favourite. It’s just so difficult to bet on as you never know what kind of teams will be turned out by the various managers. Tonight however, at the City of Manchester stadium its Man City v Spurs and two managers who will arguably place more importance on this competition than the likes of Wenger,...

  • Selectabet’s Line of the Week
    This week I’m giong to start in Scotland where there’s some rich pickings to be had; A couple of home bankers to get us started are in the Scottish Third Division, where East Fife (1/3 BetDirect, Ladbrokes) and Montrose (8/15 Ladbrokes) should both pick up three points against Dumbarton and Forfar. Both of them are very short though and better value might be...

  • Absolutely Fabio: Capello named new England boss
    The FA have announced that Italian mastermind Fabio Capello will be the new permanent England boss and in doing so end several weeks of speculation about the position. Bookies more or less closed the book a few days ago after the Special One ruled himself out but if you managed to get on the 6/1 available almost 4 weeks ago then well done to you. I think it will be a good...

  • The Lyon Kings
    Just a quick one from me tonight. Many of the Champions League games tonight don’t really mean to much as most of the groups and the positions have already been decided. I’m focusing on the match at Ibrox where Rangers host French champions Lyon. The Gers need just a point to qualify whereas for Lyon only a win will do. Lyon will be hurting after Rangers won...

  • Competition: Win a £100 free bet at Paddy Power
    Win a £100 free bet at PaddyPower.com on UEFA Champions League Matchday 6 We’ve still not had a winner of the £100 free bet from PaddyPower.com. No-one guessed that Iniesta or any other Barcelona player would be first goalscorer on Matchday 5 of the Champions League so the competition is open again for Matchday 6. The same question applies, it’s Champions...

  • Sunday’s Football Betting
    I tuned into Match Of The Day this morning for the first time in ages, but for a few minutes I thought it was Jim’ll Fix It? Women commentators?  Whatever next? Women lines(wo)men? Referees? It’ll never work! Anyways, onto the betting… It’s a bit of a tricky one today with the only real stand-out being Arsenal away to Middlesboro. I did say a...
