New Year Bets

Monday, December 31st, 2007

First off a nice banker treble.  Bolton, Liverpool and Man U.  Bolton have Derby who are hopeless.  They’re going down and there’s not much Jewell or anyone can do.  Man U have Birmingham.  Man U have the best home record in the league and this win should be routine, the odds do reflect this, 1.17.  Liverpool have Wigan.  I can’t see the Pool dropping any points at home to these.  Treble pays 2.26 at Betfred on the 7th Heaven coupon. 

We’ve skipped the Arsenal and Chelsea bankers as I don’t they are bankers.  West Ham have beaten Arsenal twice in the last 2 seasons at home so why not again?  I’d need more than the 1.36 to oppose a side that came from behind to beat Man U.  Fulham have a new manager and for whatever reason, teams with new managers usually over perform.  Chelsea needed a late offside goal to defeat Newcastle.  Chelsea should win but 1.57 for an away win is not good enough. 

Second bet is Palace to beat Norwich.  Both are having great runs of form under new managers.  Something has to give.  Palace being the home team should win this.  1.88 on the Asian Handicap is a nice price. 

£100 staked on each.
