A weekend of upsets
Chelsea join Man U and go out of the FA Cup. Watching the game, its unreal how Chelsea can one of the top 3 teams in the country. I can’t remember Chelsea troubling the Barnsley keeper at all. Well, the only consolation is that we didn’t go crazy on it. Only £100 staked, Bank down to £186. Thats my interest in the FA Cup down this year. Good for the winning team and the neutrals but no good from a punting point of view. This fella sums it all up http://selectabet.wordpress.com/2008/03/08/who-will-win-the-fa-cup-now/
>>So the question should really be, ‘Who Cares Who Win the FA Cup Now?’ - As a punter I don’t. I’m not donating another penny to the bookies retirement fund.
I suppose the other upset of the day was Scotland beating England. I saw Ireland/ Scotland and I thought that Scotland would never score a try against England. I had England -9. I was right about not scoring a try but England were awful, gave away 5 penalties and duly lost 15-9. So thats 3 upsets in a day, they say bad luck comes in 3s. No upsets today please and we’ll be alright.
