Tiffy Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 3 hours ago, StevieDay1983 said: Yeah, it's a tough one. I don't rate Alan Irvine as a manage at all. He's more like Steve McClaren where he's a very decent coach but not manager material. He had decent squads at Preston and Sheffield Wednesday but still had a win ratio of 40%. He then failed miserably at West Brom lasting just 22 matches. Can he do something short term? I don't know. This Norwich squad should be doing a lot better than it has been. I'm staying away from it. My gut instinct favours Norwich slightly but it's hard. Great result for your boys last night, @Tiffy. Did you back them to keep a clean sheet? Looks like the wheels have come off the Derby promotion hunting bus! No I didn't back them. I wasn't sure how the makeshift defence would be. Also the last time I saw Derby was when they ripped us apart a few seasons ago 5-1. However, Rosenior deputised nicely at left back & Hudemier gave a MOM performance at CH. He looked rusty when standing in for Dunk against Brentford, but was immense last night. The midfield were excellent and the strikers scored. But, Derby were very poor. I was a bit worried when I saw there line up, but they offered nothing. McLaren has a massive rebuilding job on his hands there. Brighton got 6 corners in the first hal! Derby only managed 1 and that came after they conceded the second goal. Pressure is now back on Huddersfield & Newcastle today!

I am absolutely delighted Russell Slade has been sacked. He's the worst manager we have had. Tactically inept, doesn't pick any flair players that leaves you with no creativity whatsoever. We were 2 points adrift of safety on his arrival and we now find ourselves 13 points adrift. We all know the oweners SISU are the massive problem, but playing 11 players in their proper positions would help a bit!! No optimism left for this season, optimistic we have brought in a decent manager (Mark Robins) for our League 2 campaign next season. My picks are: - WOLVES: Big win for Wolves to stay above the relegation zone against a very poor Rotherham side. - TOTTENHAM -1: I would imagine Pochetino (however you spell it!) will go very strong again like the last round. Tottenham's 4th consecutive Sunday game (1 Europa Cup game in between) with 1 more next Sunday too. - NEWCASTLE: Massive game for Newcastle after Brigton's win last night. Newcastle to win to preserve the 3 point gap. - CELTIC: Although Celtic are a massive 27 points clear at the top, they'll want to smash Rangers in the Old Firm Derby. A big gulf in class between the 2 teams. andrewcalo, StevieDay1983 and Tanktop 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyblues88 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 P.S Be cautious about betting on Bradford to beat us today. I would imagine our starting 11 will be a lot different and far more creative than under Slade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthethings Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I'm on Burton-Nottingham and Bournemouth-West Ham first-half overs at around 1.7 each, and I have too many others I'm considering. Liking a bunch of League Two dogs, including Colchester home to Portsmouth and Crawley and Stevenage away. Also like the chances for Coventry to get something home to Bradford in League One. Have an hour to sort it all out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realised he had managed you before and won every other game when in charge. Not bad. He also did a decent job with an average side at Rotherham. He's not done very well with Huddersfield or Scunthorpe but I think they were on downward turns when he came to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discipline Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Arsenal playing their best players against Lincoln and still can't create any chances. Stubborn Wenger has to accept that not everyone can successfully manage a club for 27 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiffy Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Both corner bets won. Thanks for the back up advice @Icongene There were 13 corners in the BRE V HUD match, with the home side having the most 7-6 Wolves comfortably covered the -2 handicap, winning 8-3 oh, and to complete my joy, the geordies got a right stuffing too!

Tiffy Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Low odds corner double today CELTIC V RANGERS Scottish football normally lets me down, but after some research, and with Celtic being at home, they should win the corner count. SPURS V MILWALL Both teams like to attack & it should be a cracking cup tie. Tottenham should win the count, but after some research I am confident that there will be a fair few corners too. investing all of yesterday's winnings into Celtic most corners TOT V MIL O9 corners pays 1.97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great picks with the corners @Tiffy. As for Newcastle, think that defeat was universally welcomed as they are such shocking losers with little respect and no class, hope Brighton pick up the silverware as well as promotion.

Tiffy Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Thanks @CloughandTaylor yes you are right about them being bad losers. We have a feeling down here that they the wheels could fall off their promotion challenge and Huddersfield could finish in the top two with us! Wouldn't that be nice....

DW_United Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 (edited) Chelsea - United Looks like it is going to be a physical and tuff game. United will play with 5 defenders and try to break through on counter attacks. Chelsea will certainly have possession. I managed to get 4,6 on Phil Jones to get a card (betfair), which is a steal. He will have problems with Hazard and Alonso. 4,0-4,7 on cards for Smalling and Costa looks good too.
