Isn't that the lot that spanked Celtic at home in the Champions League qualifiers? They had a really strong home record back then.

Yeah, they are. They still have a very good record at home. The game isn't on in their home stadium though so thats something.

Just wanted to pick something at 3pm as I'm bored. Hope it doesn't come back to haunt me because I just realised there is NFL tonight. Will definitely dabble in that.

So I started one of these today, but I am going for odds between 1/2 and 1/1.

First one in for Johnson anytime at 4/7. £15.71 probably going on Jason Witten anytime touchdown in the next game.

Sound! I wish this happened about 6 weeks ago when I wouldn't have been tempted to withdraw. :)

Think Arsenal may be next. Know Cardiff have done well against the bigger teams but it surely can't do it every week. Arsenal should have too much and are decent odds at 4/6 . . .

Any thoughts?

I'd probably take out the original £10 if I were you!
For some reason I'm weary of betting on Arsenal today....knowing my rates of winning tho' they'll probably smash Cardiff. QPR away to Doncaster and Everton at home to Stoke are the same odds....also 1.95 on Norwich to beat Palace at home.

Yeah, I'm gonna take out the £10 and start another one. That way I'll be able to remain relatively carefree on some of my pick and have a bit of patients with the main attempt.

As far as Arsenal. I think I'll go with them. Not massively confident but their in form and generally expected to win. If I lose out in these circumstances, I'll get over it!

Everton have cost me before in that Last Man Standing thing on Paddy Power. Could have won £2000 but they drew with someone shite and it ended up being split 5 ways. And I don't have enough of a knowledge on the Championship to feel confident in QPR. I still have a few hours to mull over it!

Have them in a few accas so will be routing for them. Think they will win but gonna go with the form/top of the league approach. If I lose out because of arguably the best team in the league losing to the 15th (ignoring home form) . . . I'll feel alot better. If Rangers win. I'll probably put the winnings on AV though.

Not lucky, cashed out for a loss with 5 mins to go. Ranger hadn't had a shot for 20 minutes at that stage!

Well annoyed but if I hadn't cashed out I know they wouldn't have scored.

Well Villa brought my 'distraction' effort to an end so its back obsessing about the 'proper' attempt.

Haven't looked yet but up to £350ish with Arsenal winning. Happy with that pick. Unsure where to go next. Will be watching UFC and stuff tonight but I'd be expecting all on City will be next on the cards!
