Chelsea/ Barnsley FA Cup bet

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

Liverpool win comfortably.  Can’t work out why bookies offer any decent odds against a team playing Newcastle.  -1.25 was such a gift.  Price was actually only 1.9.  So bank up to -£86. 

Going to try printing some more money.  Chelsea -1 on the 1X2 handicap at 1.91 (exactly the same as -1.5 Asian but better price).  Barnsley are crap and the only reason the odds are the way they are is that Barnsley upset Liverpool.  Routine win for Chelsea.

Upset of the day, Man U, Portsmouth

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

Well, thats one bet down.  Listening it to on the radio, it should been 3-0 home win easily.  As it happens, Pompy jammy it 1-0.  Bank down to -£176.  Liverpool should beat Newcastle so not too worried yet. 

Odds from Betfair on were pretty high.  No Liverpool/ Barnsley style odds but Portsmouth were matched for £7 at odds of 28/1.

No Upsets please

FA Cup weekend sometimes throws up the odd upset.  I think this round they are going to be none.  If Chelsea/ Man U draw each other in the semi’s the other teams have a good chance to get in to Europe.  Stan James are doing a nice special on Boro, West Brom, Man U and Chelsea all to win in 90 minutes.  Odds are 6.5. 

Second bet of the weekend is another Stan James special.  Its for Sundays Premiership, Spuds, Everton and Arsenal all to win.  6.5 also. 

Finally, Liverpool -1.25 to beat Newcastle, odds 1.92.  Betting against Newcastle has been a goldmine this season.  I really can’t see why the handicap isn’t -1.5.  Liverpool just hammered West Ham 4-0.  I rate West Ham a better team than Newcastle.  

So thats it, £100 staked on each.
