The over 2.5 goals just about came good in the Reading v Newcastle game, so tonights bet is another over 2.5 goals:

Crystal Palace v Watford, over 2.5 goals, £100 at odds of 1.97

So not a good start today, Charlton v QPR ended 0-1

Next bet is over 2.5 goals in Reading v Newcastle, £100 at odds of 1.98

OK, first bet of the weekend will be over 2.5 goals in the Charlton v QPR game, £57 at odds of 2.0

more bets later

Right, here is today’s bet:

Newcastle v Tottenham, over 2.5 goals, £100 at odds of 1.84 to win £84.00.

There’s been quite a few goals in the last few meetings so hopefully that trend continues tonight!

….sort of, I haven’t updated the blog for a week, I didn’t really fancy any bets on the international games due to alot of teams not needing to win, I did opt for overs in the end of week Conference and League 2 games but wont be including them here as it could just be seen as aftertiming ;o)

I went to the Merseyside Derby yesterday so didn’t blog any bets as I didn’t get time.

I’m also taking part in a Betfair Challenge with a friend to see who can reach £5,000 first with a starting bank of £500, it’s being logged here

England kick off in 15 minutes, there isn’t much to bet on in this game really but I will put £10 on 3-0 England at odds of 6.0 to win £50.

Other bets for today will include:

Cyprus v Wales, a lay of the draw, £50 at odds of 3.50 (liability of £125)

Denmark v Spain, a lay of the draw, £50 at odds of 3.45 (liability of ££122.50)

Ireland v Germany, Over 2.5 goals, £50 at odds of 2.08 to win £54

Well done to Oxford for throwing away a 3-0 lead at half time, Torquay managed to claw back to earn a 3-3 draw, which means i’m £130 down now.

International Games this weekend so i’ll take a look at those soon!

A bit thin on the ground for games today, but Oxford Utd take on Torquay in the Conference so I will be having a bet on this with a lay of the draw, £50 at odds of 3.6 (liability of £130)

Leeds beat Darlington 1-0 to ensure the draw lay bet came in, I deliberately put less on the overs bet so that they didn’t cancel each other out if overs didn’t come in.

It now puts the profit at £503 over 5 days and 11 winning bets out of 16 with a strike rate of 68.75%, which I wish was higher but it’s the profit figure that really counts!!

There isn’t any games that interest me today, Tenerife v Malaga is the only game in-play tonight on Betfair and being Spanish Cup I wont be risking anything!
