I constantly see threads about how apparently woeful DMcG's tips are but no one seems to post their own selections. I am going to be the first to take on Derek.
The rules will be
1. I will only be posting my daily selection vs his "bet of the day".
2. I will bet on football when Derek does.
3. When Derek bets on a different sport (usually Tennis) I will bet on American football, Canadian football, Baseball or Rugby League.
If anyone else wants to go head to head with Derek and myself this is the thread to do it.

I'll join in if you can list what he puts up.

No problem everyone is welcome, I will buy the paper tomorrow and post his selection, I am praying he tips a tennis selection I cant see a standout football bet for tomorrow

Does he tip something every day? Good grief?
If you can find an easy repository for the nonsense he puts up it should all be easy. |
|
By:
I think he tips everyday, I will be very disappointed if I buy that rag and his column isn't there
|
|
By:
Just do the opposite of what he says
|

By:
His bet of the day is Fenerbahce to beat Arsenal at 9/5

Don't open it out to everyone...will be a total mess...keep it to you, Derek and Marychain and it promises to be a very interesting thread.

Ok I will leave it at the 3 challengers you mentioned and CJ70, he got in before the deadline... good to see you on here BTW Roy I thought they had banned you. Anyway my bet will be Chelsea -1 Goal 5/6
|
|
By:
So far for day 1 we have
Derek Fenerbahce win 9/5 Marychain Chelsea win + btts 12/5 Texas Chelsea - 1 goal 5/6 |

No I just needed a break during the off season....mugs on here are bad enough anyway but with all the changes at utd and the transfer bollocks I imagine this place was unbearable.

 There were a lot of threads writing them off alright, people putting too much importance on the results of a far east tour |
|
By:
I'm one of those in the camp that he's nowhere near as bad as is made out, especially as he has to pick a bet pretty much every single day bar sunday and hardly ever goes odds on. GL all.

Yup sounds about right! Swansea game was important for that...even if we go on to lose next few games Moyes will have a bit more breathing room externally. |

By:
WHY NOT OPPOSE THE MUG? ARSENAL TO WIN!
CHANGE YOUR BET TO ARSENAL DRAW NO BET, VALUE! THEY WILL WIN THOUGH... LIKE 1-3 1-4 2-3 2-4 |

Texas, I don't think he tips every day.
In fact, I'm pretty sure he doesn't. Good luck with this anyway. Might be fun.  |

|
|
By:
and add what your lay bets profit was for a £10 liability thanks
|
|
By:
I'm not sure how to do a table on here. Profit was £9.51 when commission was taken into account.
I'll lay Derek's choice each day. |

My bet for tomorrow is Feyenoord to win at FC Kuban Krasnodar at 19/5 (BetVictor). It's 5.1 on here, but I'm going with the best high street price as that's what Tommo does. Think it's a cracking bet.
|
|
By:
I noticed that one myself marychain its strange that kuban are longer odds to lift the cup but shorter to qualify. Derek's tip is Dinamo Tblisi +1 goal to beat Spurs 8/5
|
|
By:
Is he using Asian or European handicaps?
|
|
By:
European I am going for euro handicap also Swansea +1 to beat Petrolul ploiesti
|
|
By:
Sorry that should be swans -1 21/20

Derek struggling here, he needs a 2-2 at least
|
|
By:
i think the last time someone done one of these he went about 2 months without getting a football bet right. off to a similar start!

By:

|
