Remember the Ladbrokes rule
Watford win 2-0. I was that sure of that bet I had a cheeky £100 on the side. Good old Colin knows that there’s no point competing in a cup you can’t win and would rather concentrate on the league.
Newcastle let us down with a poor 0-0 draw. To be honest, Stoke should have won that one. Newcastle are very, very lucky.
I should have seen the warning signs. When ever Ladbrokes seem to go top price for a favourite it always seems to not win. There was a time when I would fancy a bet and then not have it because the best price was at Ladbrokes. The 2.38 for Newcastle was at Ladbrokes. Not only that, Ladbrokes went best price on Birmingham (lost) and Sunderland (lost). I must conclude that Ladbrokes have very good odds setters.
Bank down to -£209.
