L13 Winter 2006 : Week 1 – BotW

PAS punters,
First up for the season with the “this week I am mostly betting £5 on…” selection is our World Champion, Simon Lindquist.

If you followed all the selections last campaign, you would have been considerably in profit – so, dare you dabble?

Bet of the week:-

I’m definitely not a betting man (with the exception of P-A-S), so the fictional fiver will probably be in the red after week one. With that in mind I’ll go for an away treble of wins for Chelski, Man Ure and (picked from the Conference) Oxford Utd. Safety first!!

Personally, I’m not sure if he’s playing it safe or having a laugh – I’ll lump on anyways…

Result: Lost! :-(


L13 Winter 2007 : Week 2 – BotW

Bet of the Week comes courtesy of week 1 winner Pab!

Seven teams selected for a £5 accumulator…

  • Arsenal v Derby : Arsenal win @ 1-6
  • Liverpool v Birmingham : Liverpool win @ 2-9
  • Southampton v Barnsley : Southampton win @ 4-6
  • Inverness CT v Hearts : Hearts win @ 5-6
  • Bolton v Tottenham : Tottenham win @ 7-5
  • Kilmarnock v St Mirren : Kilmarnock win @ 8-13
  • Rangers v Aberdeen : Rangers win @ 3-10

Result: LOSE! -£5


L13 Winter 2007 : Week 1 – BotW

No BotW, booo!

Result: n/a


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 13 – BotW

We go into the final week on an even keel – we look to Ben Hogwood to provide a profit…

An all Championship effort this time… and a fiver on:

Sunderland, Southend and Barnsley all to win.

Will get you back £24.35.

Here’s hoping!

Result: Lost! :-( Down -£5.


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 12 – BotW

Andy Chesworth is trying to get us on an even keel ready for profit in Week 13…

£5 accumulator on: Liverpool / Sheff Wed / Rangers / Celtic

Should get us £30 back as it’s 5/1 odds…

Result: WON! :-) £0 profit!.


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 11 – BotW

£25 down with 3 weeks to go – I had this discussion with Week 10 winner Ciaran O’McGoldrick…

“Hola! Que pasa? Need a BotW before 12.30 today cos I’m going down to watch that shower draw against Bolton tomorrow… Are you going to tip us a gee gee in the National? Later. P”

“Alright Geez, London clubs away from home: West Ham, Spurs, Charlton. All to win. I think you get roughly 10-1 but then again I’m gay. Howyat? Goo x”

“You eeez crazeeee! and yes, v gay… that little trio comes in @ 36/1 so a fiver will bring in around £183! I agree with W Ham and Spurs but can’t see Charlton beating Everton mate.. Cheers. Px. ps – Idle Talk to win the National!”

“Yeh, that’s the swinger, although they haven’t lost in four and the young guy Vaughan is out, he’s been there (sic) big player over the last couple of weeks. So we’ll see xx”

Result: Lost! :-( Down -£30.


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 10 – BotW

We halved our deficit to £20 last week courtesy of Mark J B – next up to take us into profit is Simon Lindquist…

Bet of the Week, done in a rush, is: Home wins for Chelsea, Arsenal, Middlesbro’, Sunderland and Celtic.

Goodness knows what odds you get on that combo… I’m afraid I’ll leave you to find out.

Delegate! Can tell you’re a manager Simon!

Odds on that little lot are around 7.75-1 meaning you’ll grab back about £43.00 (inc stake) from the bookie.

Result: Lost! :-( Down -£25.


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 9 – BotW

Depending on who you followed last week (you lucky boy Matt G!) you’ll be £40 down or even stevens – we’ll take the official route and say we followed the ’Ammer last week and are currently out of pocket.

Last week’s robber of the weekly prize was Mark J Brown – here’s his rather conservative, yet sensible selections (slowly slowy catchy monkey n all that…)

£5 Treble Liverpool, Man U and Chelsea = £20

Result: WON! :-) Down -£20.


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 8 – BotW

No word back from last week’s jammy winner Matt W as yet, so I’ll put up a substitute acca if he fails to shout up (Matt, do a “reply all” with your flutter before 1pm tomorrow me ol’ china!)

We’re £35 down so I’ll go for rootsy Celt/Iberian flavour to win us around £50…

A “lady” on the following then:

Eire / Scotland / N Ireland / Portugal / Spain

I’ll be in Belfast this weekend after-dinner speaking (slurring) at the Nor’n Ireland Branch “near-the-end-of-the-season-few-scoops” session hosted by the PAS “Posh & Becks”, Clare N & Neil T.

If the results are late on Monday, you now know why…

…and then…

…and now for my bet of the week:

£5 on My Lucky Seven Accumulator: Serbia, Ukraine, Belarus, France, Poland, Slovakia and Croatia

Have a good un

Matt

Result: Lost! :-( Down -£40.


L13 Spring 2007 : Week 7 – BotW

£30 down, we now look to a Palace supporter to bail us out – let me put it this way, they’re an optimistic bunch…

A cheeky treble: Palace, Leeds and Everton to win!!!

£5 on will net around £199.00 (inc stake).

Result: Lost! :-( Down -£35.
