alex neil was moaning about missing players after they were hammered by hull-don't know if this is still the case

-just to add to this you are allowed to lose £39m in 3 years our losses were approx £10m £20m in the 2 prior years and a profit of £2.5m up to july 18 so a total of approx £27.5m. However the £2.5m profit included a profit of £38m on the sale of the stadium to Chansiri so if this was excluded then there is a 3 yr loss of £65.5m The accounts were delayed by 2 months to july 18 and filed late i think . The land registry entry for the sale was july 19 so this throws up doubts about the timing of the sale. There is no note in the accounts detailing the sale or its timing. The sale proceeds were £60m. The inference to me is that the sales proceeds may have been inflated and the sale backdated for inclusion into the accounts purely as a means of not breaching ffp rules. If this is so it makes you wonder about the advice the club received from its lawyers and auditors.

EFL have stated that Wednesday have breached financial rules so a points deduction seems likely. Relegation is 66/1 with Ladbrokes so I will have a little bit of that.

Borner injured in warm up for Wednesday- a big blow. Hutchinson drops into defence, with pelupessy to come in I imagine. Nuhui up front not ideal either.

I think the draw is a decent shout @StevieDay1983 In fact i would take a draw now. I have a potential bet for this game but need to get on first. Sam hutchinson has been booked 7 times in 12 games this season and 5 times in his last 6 games. He is reckless and goes to ground often when tackling. Leeds are not a dirty team but this is a local derby which adds a little spice. i have backed him at 13/8 with bet365 to be booked (yellow and red cards count). I will also try a small bet on hutchinson to be sent off at 25/1 (bet 365).

so @sajtion would it be fair to say that you fancy slovan bratislava?

BV useless fckers in my experience. Most bookies would be quite happy to abolish sports betting and just offer roulette/ casino games which they can rig and remove all risk.

Preston v Leeds Preston are around 5/2 which looks big to me as they have won 5 drawn 1 lost 0 in 6 home league games this season. Leeds after a good start away from home have lost the last 2.

westwood injured in warm up dawson replaces dawson doesn't command his area so I will buy Cardiff headed goal minutes at 16 spreadex

i'm undecided-i can't get the whiff of dodgy agents from my nostrils. Winnall seems to be getting more game time (even though he's shite). Btw his agent is apparently the same as monk's.

I also expect Cardiff to win and extend their good home record. Wednesday have had a fairly easy start in terms of opposition and I think we are in a false position. I hope i'm wrong though. I'll take Cardiff 2-0 at 10/1 betfred.

Czechs v england mason mount has 4 in 8 for Chelsea and is likely to be the attacking option in a midfield with rice and henderson at 7/2 anytime scorer with paddy power I think he is worth a bet

Mens 1500m (semis tonight) Cheruiyot is odds on for this but sometimes finals become tactical and this brings in the fast finishers. Taofik Makhloufi won olympic gold in london in 2012, but has run a decent time this year and looked ok in the heats. The 40/1 has now gone but at 20/1 with bet 365 i will try a small bet in the hope that it is a tactical race. If this is so i would expect him to go for home from around 300m (assuming he gets through the semi tonight).

shelly ann fraser pryce was the fastest qualifier in the heats at 10.80 and looked like she had more to give. Elaine Thompson is the only runner who has run as fast this season but didn't look in form running 11.14. Ta lou ran 10.85 but looked like she was running hard. I don't like backing short prices but hills 4/5 looks too big. Barring a false start I can't see her losing.

Derby have lost richard keogh and maybe bennett and lawrence will be rested after their midweek drink driving capers and crash. I wouldn't want to be with them at around 6/5.
