    FA Cup > 15th / 16th January

    in Championship Predictions

    Posted

    Re: FA Cup > 15th / 16th January

    Brentford v Southend Tuesday 15th Jan 19.45 Southend came back from 2-0 down to draw the first game 2-2 and the stats show they had more that twice as many shots on target - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20863411 Both clubs are doing well in their divisions. Southend have lost their last few league games, but I think they are too high here at 5.0 Southend 5.0 Bet 365 Stake: 6/10 (confidence I have in the value of the bet)
    Can't help feeling that the incentive of Chelsea in the next round is a big factor for Brentford, otherwise I would have been on this bet

    Re: League 1 > 16/17 November

    Apparently there was a huge dressing room row after the loss to Bury. It was a poor performance. We may see a reaction against Doncaster' date=' but I'm waiting to see what AH odds are offered.[/quote'] Jase82 - Delighted for you and Portsmouth that Portmouth Trust are going to be taking over - As a Palace, I know how all this most have felt like to a loyal supporter. Who knows in a couple of years, you will be top of the Championship and having youth players represent England:clap

    Stoke City v Queens Park Rangers > Saturday 10th November

    in Premier League Predictions

    Posted

    Re: Stoke City v Queens Park Rangers > Saturday 10th November In their last 20 matches Stoke have only won twice - Wolves at home, who everyone was beating and Swansea, where I think they had quite a large physical advantage. That does not justify them being so short - I will be laying them or taking QPR on the handicap Do agree with Bowles on the Standard unless you are Chelsea Spurs Arsenal or West Ham you don't get a look in - I don't support QPR

    Midweek > Championship > 2-3 October

    in Championship Predictions

    Re: Midweek > Championship > 2-3 October Palace are playing well at the moment and are good value at those odds, however Palace aren't prolific scorers and despite having lots of the play against Bolton only scored once. Zaha ran them ragged and I expect he will cause Wolves plenty of problems. Sheff Weds certainly had chances against Wolves on Saturday. For Wolves, their forward line and midfield looks strong. Should be a good game

    Norwich v Liverpool 29th September 2012

    Re: Norwich v Liverpool 29th September 2012

    I'm pretty anti-Liverpool, think they are shockingly overrated most weeks by the bookies and low and behold it's been the case this season again where they've done nothing. But I do fancy them to get the result against a Norwich side who I think are gonna struggle alot this year. I expect them to go down. I'd need close to 2.00 to back Liverpool though, dont see the value here.
    exactly how I see this match and your views on Liverpool match mine.

    Championship > September 14/15/16

    in Championship Predictions

    Re: Championship > September 14/15/16 Both Teams to Score WHill 10/11 looks the bet to me - Palace have been shaky at the back and vulnerable at set pieces, although there was an improvement in the last game. Zaha, Murray look like they will get goals plus support from Moritz should mean that the bet pays. Both teams have scored in every Palace match so far this season.

    Synchronised ~ Would you run him in the National?

    Re: Synchronised ~ Would you run him in the National? Awful, but there did seem to be some poor fencing today as a poster said earlier. According to Pete didn't even fall he was brought down and I am not sure if Synchronised didn't get up run loose and fall on the 11th (I think), I just watched the reply there is a lose horse that jumps that badly and lands on or close to that fence and appears to damage its leg. I have always enjoyed the National, but the start was mayhem full of nerves. I don't believe there are enough escapes on the course, but some loose horses will jump on regardless. The race seems to be run at a far faster pace than it was a number of years back. Not sure what the answer is, but sadly I can see the day when it is no longer run

    Favourite Horse Ever.... One Flat, One Jumps - that is all!!

    Flat _ Njinsky Dad took me to the Derby when I was about 7 and the talked about horse was Njinsky- being &7 I wanted to know what Njinsky meant and was told it was the name of a dancer. It won the Derby in true style and then I loved watching it race thereafter as I had seen it live in a crowd of around 100,000- Magic! NH- Red Rum, Backed it when I was about 8 or first bet really and was delighted when I got over a fiver back and then backed it no matter what it did always each way then, but the horse always tried its heart out and that's why I loved it.
    Wow, just watched that Derby on youtube again, no wonder I was captivated by the sport!

    Is there anyway of downloading days runners to spreadsheet?

    Re: Is there anyway of downloading days runners to spreadsheet?

    Would save me soooooo much time... I subscribe to the racingpost.com and am well au fait with ATR and Racing UK websites but am unaware of anything that could help... Has anyone come across such a service or option? I guess printing the racecards out is going to be my option but just wanted to check there wasn't a better way. Thanks for your time:D
    copy and paste cards from the racing post then edit spreadsheet

    BKI's Jump Betting Log

    in At The Races - Racing Forum

    Posted

    Re: BKI's Betting Log I did some ante posts for the first time as a result of being inspired by the thread - I had Rock on Ruby, Sprinter Sacre, Cinders and Ashes, Simonsig, Brindisi Breeze, Salsify based on performances I liked - had I bet on the day I think only Sprinter and Salsify would have survived. I had Rubi Light, although didn't go for Synchronised when he beat Rubi in the Lexus as I thought lOng Run and Kauro would be better Did have some winners on the day, such as Sir De Champs. I liked Hunt Ball, but was worried about the weight, but when I saw the actual race had a very narrow handicap- 10lbs from memory I think I can do better next time, missed Riverside for the same reason, but I can learn from that Was able to trade on horses like Menorah and tried to do the same with Dynaste less success there and had some good trades on the Triumph as that was so unpredictable this year. Conclusion is I will do this again, so thanks BKI & mileni for inspiring me

    Weekend > Championship > March 17th/18th

    in Championship Predictions

    Posted

    Re: Weekend > Championship > March 17th/18th I think Palace are too short to win as they have some issues with the defence as Clyne and Gardner are expected to be out and McShane isnt eligible. Palace defence has been strong all season, but that might cause a problem. Zaha was sent off last week , so he will be missed too. Hull won very well at Cardiff in the week, so even though Palace don' lose many at home the 3.1 for Hull to win looks tempting. Need to check out the handicaps to cover the draw Hull at 0.5 is 1,52 with b365, nothing else priced up
