Never do them normally, but laid Man City and Liverpool. Simples.
Gives me some added fund to slam onto the baseball tonight :-)

Great theory. 2 game sample. Proves the point beyond doubt. Lump on.

By:
OK.

By:
Haha, there is no theory at all, two games two winners. It's easy.
Shame the real season starts soon ;-) |

curious about your baseball picks tonight Onions.
I'm not a baseball expert but in the mood to gamble. [;)] |

City were a good lay last night. I knew that at the time, but felt obliged to back them, my team and all.
Liverpool don't cross my radar. No idea what they are doing, insignificant team, assume they lost? Friendly matches are commonly accepted as 'no bet' material by the Pullein family on here. I do agree with you r general point that there may be money to be made with a bit of research. |
|
By:
I totally agree with you, I never bet on them but Man City are 2/1 looked too short when the line ups came out, and I went to the Liverpool game so it was a bit of added excitment and lucky enough both paid off.
I've not really looked too mch at the baseball so not too sure myself but I shall let you know as soon as I decide and get matched. |

 Ooo smileys at the bottom hmmm Lay La tonight |

It's a very annoying thing, team loyalty. I've seen 4 of the 5 pre-season games we've played live and stayed up till 4am to listen to the other on Portland radio. I have seen absolutely nothing to justify us being 2-1 against the European champions yesterday (backed in to around 6-4 at kickoff). None of the new signings were in America (bar Yaya) and Mancini had to go home for family reasons.
I would have layed it to the max... if I weren't a totally biased fan. instead I shoved #20 on us to win, and hated myself as I pressed submit. |

|
By:
Why did you go to Germany by the way?
Also, you should have got on the Milan lay, was still 13/10 last night ;) Backed Villa tonight as well, easy peasy. |
|
By:
Ah bad times, I was going to lay Leicester yesterday too, 21/10 but talked myself out of it for some reason. I seemed to have made out in my head we could beat Sunderland, although in fairness we were not all that bad.
The big problem with fan loyalty is backing your team each week, even if it is onnly a few quid, it all mounts up, and each time you do it you know its stupid. The year we went down to league 1 I backed us to win the league....oops haha |
|
By:
Onions - the season we finished fourth, I had the biggest bet of my life on us to be relegated at 11/2
|
|
By:
Haha, nice.
I backed Leicester 3-1, Chopra first scorer in our play off game, if the lineo wasn't blind and saw he was offside it would have been the best bet ever lol. I might lay us every week, can see us being a short price at home every other week, and well, I won't mind losing a few quid each time |
|
By:
I backed Liverpool to win the league last year, haha.
I think Leeds and Forest are going to be stupidly short at home in every other week this season in your league. |
|
By:
I'm not sure about Leeds, keep in mind they flopped twice in league 1. I agree good at home, but away I think they will struggle.
|
|
By:
I've tried the oppose City so I can't lose either way theory.
Problem is if you put enough on it you really want the other team to win. If you don't put enough on it, why bother? Even if you think your team's win odds are no value, there is always a more palatable betting option (players to score, corners, bookings etc). My judas betting days are over. |

Problem is if you put enough on it you really want the other team to win. No chance! I lost a sizeable three-figure sum when we knocked the Shíte out of the FA Cup last year and I couldn't have been happier. |
|
By:
Yeah, M&P, but if it had been a sizeable four-figure sum how would you have felt?
The same? ok... if it had been a sizeable five-figure sum how would you have felt? I certainly have a price to be happy for United to win a Manchester derby. |
|
By:
How did Leicester play Onions?
|
|
By:
The amount I lost was "enough"! I had a decent bet beforehand, but then (after getting on it at 12.30pm) I kept topping up through the game.
It's fair to say that you might want to lose a derby for £10k, for example, but short of backing them at 200 or something silly like that I'd never stake enough to win that much when we're playing them. |
|
By:
I wasn't there so don't really know, but according to the commentators we were amazing in the first half.
DJ missed two sitters inside 6 yards, same with Morrison twice and Howard missed a free header. Minus not being able to finish we sounded like we were making a lot of chances. 2nd half we died off, goalkeeping mistake cost us, but they should have made it 3-1, Campbell and Bent vs Weale, and they blazed it over the bar. |
|
By:
Ok ta, saw King's goal on SSN but was out most of Saturday.
|
|
By:
I did't know they were showing it on tele, not seen it yet either lol.
I'll have a look online |
|
By:
Wasn't live, only in their roundup of goals last night.
|
|
By:
Yeah, I know, found the goals on youtube. Decent finish from King, and great stuff again from Fryatt
|
|
By:
so what's the bet? dodgers or giants? [;)]
|
|
By:
Giants.
Forgot it was Sunday, so only the late game left. Decent price on San Fran too. |

0-3Good stuff Hornets

By:
Giants pitching not good..
|
|
By:
You watching it?
I'm watching the hangover at the moment, but will stick it on soon. Only downside with MLB is the lack of trading. |
|
By:
no, just looking at the MLB ticker. Giants pitcher had something like 11 Strikes 10 balls... and generated some walks.
|
|
By:
Chance blown there. Man on 1st and 2nd, 1 out.
Damn, ah well, still 0-0 so no damage |
|
By:
just a matter of time for a dodgers score. can't Giants change the picher? [:(]
|
|
By:
They can do yeah, but they will try not too.
|
|
By:
We got out of danger there, big time.
Hopefully they will start getting some runs |
|
By:
bases loaded 2 out, this is out chance
|
|
By:
now is the chance!!! score!!!
|
|
By:
Damn. Was the pitcher at bat, so no hope.
