Published on 2010-09-06 11:36:47

Well feeling much brighter today and that’s after completing a day of work! Just a little bit of admin to complete, including this blog, and then I can call it a day. The weekend was a bit of a washout as far as betting was concerned. The close > read more

Quick update

Published on 2010-08-19 12:45:40

Couldn’t resist having £125 on Rapid Vienna at a shade under 2/1 at HT as they should be about 3-1 up. Looked dangerous on set pieces while Villa have looked a bit dodgy. Fitness will play a part in the second half as Vienna are much further i > read more

Well the betting gods weren’t smiling on me yesterday, more probably laughing at me. It all started pretty well with a nicely secured profit of £160 on the Liverpool victory. This obviously put me in a positive mood for the afternoon but that > read more

The Holy Day

Published on 2008-09-27 05:41:56

Saturday is the holy day for me as far as betting goes. In much the same way as couples dress in their best clothes in anticipation of heading to church for a Sunday morning service, I put on some pretty decent clothes and head over to the co-op for > read more

Nearly a £1k payout…

Published on 2008-09-26 14:57:34

I’ve had a number of near misses of decent sized payouts this year and last night was no exception. I backed Selby to bt Hendry as mentioned previously to win £120. I also went for the 6-0 scoreline in Selby’s favour at 25/1 with Willia > read more
