Well to say i got totally screwed in France is an understatement..... My tipping totally sucked tonight guys, but Im pretty sure its late season-syndrome, some teams just dont give a flying fck. Hope you had better luck than I did.

I got rolled by Bayern Munich (Draw) ...I left teams out that had nothing to play for............Though Bay Mun were nearly in that boat needing only 2 points from 2 matches ...but Hamburg went down last night so its all over red rover

Tonites Picks..Sorry no commentary ,except to say ,that altough they are all away ,they seem to have a very good chance of winning ....which of course ,would please me greatly

Parma v *AC Milan
X
Portsmouth v *Liverpool
X
Pacos Ferreira v *Benfica

@3.75

Benfica was a surprise 1-3 loss ........a low scoring draw I thought at worst
But there ya go thats soccer ..........

Hey Classic and Ambiv .....are Boro a chance this week ...they are 1.50 double chance (win or draw) at Gbookers ......
Apart from that theres not a great deal happening before Saturday ......
I would love to see the Hammers do well (I suppose theyve done well to get to the final) ...........I like the look of Liverpool though ...........they dont leak too many goals and when they are at full strength they are very dangerous at the other end of the park ........ Crouch might look big and awkward but he wins a lot of ball that other players wouldnt ,simply because of his reach

ill assess and get back to you floyd

Too Late ...I went this way for a bit of fun
But Im serious about Liverpool

FC Barcelona v Arsenal................ X or 2 @ 1.79
Middlesbrough v FC Sevilla...........1 or X @ 1.52
Liverpool v West Ham ................ Lvpl@ 1.6

TOTAL @$4.35

I have been flat out at work so ain't had a chance to have a good look but I will be backing Sevilla to win 1-0

Yeah well Ill be setting the alarm for kick off in the morning ....Good luck

30th Minute Sevilla 1-0 Middlesborough


They have the goal now but they look like they could grab 1 or 2 more, they are a class above boro.

Boro completely outplayed allover the park ..sev just scored 3rd

4th
I reckon the fans (english and european ) must spend a fortune travelling around to matches ...........Go to work so they can afford to go to the football ......they love it dont they

Well there's another result I picked for ya, you didn't wait for my tip floyd!

I don't think the result was ever in doubt, Sevilla's playing style just overwhelmed Boro, they are so comfortable with the ball at their feet, the passing and movement was world class

Yeah another result ...You created carnage from Milan to Madrid on the weekend
your a funny man.........its alright to say never in doubt after the event ..........when I was away in New Zealand earlier this year Boro beat Chelski 3-1 .....dont tell me about never in doubt.
I thought they might have a chance albeit a slim one .......as I said a multi just for an interest .......... Liverpool is where mine will be going .........FA Cups are usually dour affairs but I think Liverpool will be too strong and I think $1.60 is a fair to good price .............Been wrong before today though.
In reference to gamebookers you can bet in running (live betting ) on certain matches ........The site is really worth having a look at if you like to bet on soccer ,or lots of sports for that matter.They bet on AFL and NRL(under the heading RUGBY)............

Maybe I should rephrase that, sure I am one person who knows how much can go wrong in world football, but I quite clearly stated last night well before the match began I was backing Sevilla. They scored more goals than I expected, but only really because Boro pushed forward 2nd half and once the second one went in the result was decided.

Dont get titchy brother Im on your side .........Viduka missed a bit of a sitter and I maintain he was Knocked over (via headbutt) as well that should have been a penalty ,but I think it would have only prolonged the inevitable ......James Morrison got taken off at half time I think he was overawed by the moment ....and the fullback .......Ive seen him play a few matches since last year and he seems like a bit of a goer ..

Here you go fellas, just to show you that one a few weeks back wasn't a flash in the pan.

I had the same bet going with a Liverpool win for insurance, but the FA Cup has a habit of throwing up interesting results....

Nice Darts , youll have to change bookies soon or youll be on the blacklist
All sorts of cup matches I normally avoid ,got tempted the other week with Bayern Munich,they won but only just fell over the line in stoppage time ,
The draw didnt surprise me but the early 0-2 scoreline did ..........$4+ is a juicy price the draw ,didnt hurt the mega multi any ........

Roll on Germany ,gonna be some late nights next month

Yeah I don't like cups either but I just felt like having a go this weekend as there were not many fixtures that I fancied...


I liked Porto as they were going for the league / cup double, and over in Belgium I had followed Waregem over the season and 2.30 was way overs for them, even though it took a last minute winner for them to seal it!

I like to keep an eye on the Belgian League ....I did alright with em last year . I think Waregem rolled one of the topweights not so long ago from memory

good stuff mate, i actually tipped against carlton which cost me my allup for the week :( what made you tip them? i was at the mcg to see them play vs the pies and they played terrible. few afl games this week should be some dead set easy wins

Hey there showbiz,


I don't know what made me tip them, I feel like they are a team thats just struggling to put it together. But if a team can grind out results when they are playing mediocre, they are a capable bunch. I think they are a little underrated and thats why I gave them the nod in my multi.

Im quite happy to discuss this weeks upcoming fixtures , not much soccer this weekend so I may just focus my tips on the other football codes, who you fancy this weekend?

the odds will not be good but a few:

Adelaide vs Richmond - the crows should win this quite easily, they are the best in form team around at the moment

Fremantle vs Kangaroos in Perth - I'd expect freo to bounce back after the shocking game they played vs Melbourne. freo are pretty good at home

St.Kilda vs Carlton - St.Kilda should be able to take this one, unless the blues can string another one together

West Coast vs Essendon - Essendon seem to be going for draft picks at the moment :p its hard to see them beating West Coast

The other games i feel could go either way -

Melbourne vs Hawthorn - Melbourne arent playing that great, and hawthorn might take this one depending on teams (crawford coming back?) good value for the hawks

Collingwood vs Geelong - very hard to pick this game, although collingwood back in melbourne will help, but they have had to travel for the first time this year which could swing in geelongs favour since they stayed in melbourne last week (plus had the longer break). Hard match

Sydney vs Western Bulldogs - Another shocking match to tip, both teams coming off big wins, hard to pick this one

Port vs Brisbane - Brisbane have a decent record vs Port (i think) and seem alright value @ $2.20

but yeh, i may have got some of this info wrong so dont take it all as accurate :D. Will wait for the ins and outs for the teams before putting my bets on.

Hey there Showbiz thats some good info there we'll take another look at the fixtures later in the week.

Ive been practising restraint ,and it isnt a personal thing , but i genuinely couldnt help myself , please forgive me ..... here goes
