Monday night pick
So Sheffield United screw us over 3rd week on the trot. Pod reckons they had a stonewalled penalty in injury time that wasn’t given. Game finished 1-1. Good job the pigs came good. 4-2 away from home is a good result. Only 1 point behind the blades now. Ended up just level. Bank at +£123.
Today’s game isn’t one to bet on. Should be a home win but the price is disappointing and Sunderland can cause teams problems.
Next bet is Newcastle -0.25 against Spurs. Newcastle have a good home record this year. Spurs are terrible on the road. Its got to be 1X, so worst case is we lose half. £100 staked. Price was 2.12. This is really good considering bluesquare have them at 2.1 just straight home win.
A note on the rugby. Not the best of games. South Africa never looked like scoring a try. They just got in to the English half and waited for the Poms to make a mistake. Bookies must be laughing their balls off today. Handicaps ranged from 7-9 points with most going for 9 points. No one ever bets on the handicap draw in rugby so they made profit on practically all handicap bets. Been quite a profitable world cup for me. Roll on the 6 nations. Rugby betting is like printing money if you just watch the games. See this post for an explanation of rugby handicaps.
