As talked about on the bookie bashing thread, heres a new betting thread for everyone to share their accas, tips, and all other bets had. Can keep an account of if your up/down (if you wish) to see who's doing well and add a competitive edge. I'd say keep it football based and use the bookie bashing thread for all other sports, but that can be up for discussion.
As for me i've just won a nice £50 courtesy of Danny Lee in the golf. (£5 e/w @40/1) So that puts me in good stead for the start of the season.
The acca I've looked at for Saturday includes:
Palace Norwich
United Spurs
Chelsea Swansea
Boro Preston
Hull Huddersfield
Rovers Bury
Burton Scunthorpe
at around 98's. Not had it on yet as I'm looking for a couple more non accas too.
-
Good thread. Just done mine. Plan for this season is a tenner on a fourfold, one from each league.
Saturday's is
Everton to beat Watford
Wednesday to beat Bristol City
Rovers to beat bury
Portsmouth to beat Dagenham
Tenner pays £134.00
-
I like that idea, consider it nicked :lol:
-
Never, ever, ever bet on Doncaster Rovers.............
-
Good thread!
I also looked at backing Palace RoversAreRed, they have made top signings such as Cabaye and Wickham.
I think Wolves look a good bet @ 15/8 with Bet365. I've got a single on them, ill post my other bets later on in the week.

For tonight's Capital One Cup ties, I'm fancying a fiver (returning just over £51 as things stand before fluctuating odds on SkyBet) on:
Charlton vs. Dag & Red
Sheffield Wednesday vs. Mansfield Town
Swindon Town vs. Exeter City
Wolves vs. Newport County
Yeovil Town vs. QPR
I may even throw Millwall to beat Barnet and MK Dons to beat Leyton Orient in there to up the odds.
-
My £5 acca will return over £1,300 if it comes in tonight :woot:
-
From experience I've learnt not to bet on the Capital One Cup.

From experience I've learnt not to bet on the Capital One Cup.
Looks like that's telling tonight.

My problems are not picking the right teams together, got one double up Exeter to beat Swindon and Luton to beat Bristol city.
The one's i put on here were my most likely to win, you always feel crap when you put forward losers in case somebody bet on them, the League cup is my worst competition to bet on.
It seems the middle sized clubs some think they are Billy Big B...ocks and can just cruise games, or just don't give a s..t.
Always pays to back a few outsiders doesn't it?, the one that surprised me was Oxford winning so emphatically at Brentford, that was a draw for me before it started.
-
F*cking Brentford...
-
I've thought for a long time that in the early rounds of the FA Cup/League Cup, if you put a tenner on the underdog in every game you would win money. I keep meaning to have a look and see if this would work (with "hypothetical" bets, I'm not that much of a gambler) but I reckon last night you'd definitely have been quids in.
31 games, and out of those there are what I'd call 11 genuine shocks (a club in the league below/2 leagues below winning). 3 were away wins in games with a 2 division gap, 1 a home win with a 2 division gap, 5 away wins in games with a 1 division gap and 2 home wins with a 1 division gap. If the odds for those games were, say, 5/1, 4/1, 3/1 and 2/1 respectively, for a ₤310 outlay you'd win ₤500. Plus you would get a few quid more for games like Wigan-Bury, which I've not included but where Bury would undoubtedly have been the underdog.
Accumulators of more than 3-4 teams are suicide in the early rounds!

Thankfully, I didn't have a bet on this.
I'm not fancying anything tonight, although, I think Portsmouth could surprise Derby County.

I've tried and failed to copy Filo's experiment from last season (rolling a £20 bet on +1.5 goals in a game) but I'm tempted to try picking one game from each divison. That said, I rarely bet on the first or last 5 sets of fixtures in a season as thats when the silly results come in.

I failed after three bets this season, the Liverpool game letting me down, the fist two went in with MK Dons v Rotherham and Arsenal v West Ham. I've started again with the Man city game, and last night the MK Dons game and tonight I'm on the Middlesborough game
-
I had an awful first weekend on the accumulator front. On the both teams to score front though I ended up with every team scoring, except Bristol City at 58-1 ANNOYING but not surprising.
Haven't touched the cup and probably a good thing.....

I was let down last season by some real high scoring teams - I reckon I must have bet on the only games that Barca and Bournemouth won 1-0!! When do Barca ever win 1-0! That told me I wasn't cut out for your strategy.

Barca let me down a couple of times last season, you have to accept that sometimes you won't win, I was well up last season, I expect to have a few bets go down early on in the season until we get a feel for the free scoring teams
-
I've gone for us tonight. Having looked at the teams I fancy us, we can play with 5 in midfield. Also Dickov hasn't got a bad record in the derby games.
£5@15/8
COYR!
-
Today I've gone for a £10 treble West Ham, Forest and Middlesborough, pays £70.27 on bet365
-
Spurs, forest, blades, Portsmouth

-
Swansea

-
Forrest, Swansea, Peterborough and Hibs. @9/1 £2 for £20
-
Anyone see the guy who cashed out for 50k?
5 turned into 50k and cashed out before the Pompy Derby game. He'd backed Pompy too and would of won 250k.
Can't imagine how he'd be feeling.
-
f**k you Spurs!!!!! 😩😩
-
I had a cheeky fiver on the draw in the Burnley v Birmingham game. To be honest, I expected a nil-nil.
-
I managed to win a double and a treble, and lost out to last second goals for another double and a treble, Luton and Brighton cost me in the 93 rd minute and 94th.
Does anybody fancy filling the Rovers fans numbers out on Talksport predictor?, there is a big league and a private one, get the private one bulked out and we can charge up the league, only six members in it i think, i don't run it but i think you can just press to join it.
My bet for tomorrow Coincidence mixed in with fancying these teams to win, both of these teams of course who i have picked were our opponents in the Carling cup run.

MAN CITY Chelsea
Wigan DONCASTER

It could happen this bet, very little between the teams, well worth a quid.
-
I've gone...
Palace v Arsenal - Arsenal
City v Chelsea - Draw
Liverpool v Bounemouth - Liverpool
A shade under 9/1
-
Went for +1 goals in the Celtic, Swansea and Hibs matches. Hibs let me down....
I had a minor victory at HT in the Rovers/Leeds game though - the sending off made William Hill go heavy in favour of Rovers so had a fiver on the 90 minute draw at 7/4.

I've gone...

Finally had a win last night, albeit a small one, got in at 9 and put sky sports news on to watch the results coming in and had an in-play acca of Chesterfield, Accrington, Hartlepool and Tranmere. The first 3 were 1 up at the time and Tranmere were 0-0. All teams ended up winning so got £23 off a fiver.
-
Where's the value at this weekend then?
-
Sheffield United, PV
-
I don't have much confidence in us right now but we look good value at 19/10 tonight. Considering Ipswich are playing a youth side and Dickov NEEDS a win.
-
Celtic, bury, Stoke, west brom fiver pays 121.
Big ask for Bury to beat Leicester but you never know!
-
Rooney for first goal for Man utd, he scores in gluts as we know, if you feel confident link it with 2-0 or 2-1 to Man utd, i hope somebody had the winners i predicted before.
-
Like a lot people Chelsea cost me money on Saturday
-
Accrington/ Bury & Donny/Burton draw double
Nott's c/Mansfield & Scunthorpe/ Barnsley draw double
Wimbledon, Cambridge, Portsmouth all to win treble
Shrewsbury, Sheff utd, Walsall win treble
In this cup i would go for some single bets.
Euro qualifiers
Bosnia to win away in Belgium
Iceland a big enough price to cover draw and away win away to Netherlands
Norway to win in Bulgaria
Small stakes**
-
Owt tonight worth a dabble?
-
Rovers to beat Walsall 3-0, a repeat of last season 40/1, add Williams to score first to that, and it goes upto around 200/1

I've been following Sporting Life's accumulator tips for a while and they have a great record:
http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/article/165/9985988/sporting-life-accumulator-betting-tips-for-saturdays-football (http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/article/165/9985988/sporting-life-accumulator-betting-tips-for-saturdays-football)
"Our acca won a fortnight ago at 18/1 after previously enjoying a 16/1 success two weeks earlier, while last season we claimed six victories at 25/1, 22/1, 18/1, 16/1, 16/1 and 13/1.
If you staked £10 to support every Sporting Life Accumulator so far this season you currently have a £280 profit thanks to £340 worth of winnings compared with losing selections of £60."
Todays tip is Bournemouth, Cardiff, Gillingham and Leyton Orient all to win at 22/1
-
A £1 double on Chelsea and Rovers to win their leagues currently returns £867.

PSV/Man utd
Galatasaray/Athletico madrid
Man city/Juventus
All to draw treble
Reading, Charlton and Burnley home win treble
Sheff utd/Colchester draw single
Small stake on Maccabi tel aviv to beat Chelsea.

Not football, but I feel there is money to be made here.
England v Wales in the rugby. I happened across some odds which showed England to be 2/7 and Wales to be 3/1. I had assumed that this was the wrong way around! However the handicap betting gives England -8 and Wales plus 8!
Maybe I'm being unpatriotic but I think Wales will win and I was amazed by those odds. I'm not a betting man but there's surely money to be made, even if only on the handicap.

Edit. England now 1/3. I did wonder if it might be one of Paddy Power's quixotic "offers," but I've seen similar prices elsewhere.

Hope some of you betting folk got on. Wishing I'd had a few quid myself.

Athletico and Real were the certainties for that bet, in hindsight them having Real in the following game, i should have left them out.
Bad luck on your bet, really frustrating, you have to find alternative bets sometimes, with the coupon prices being very slim, sometimes it turns a winner up, hopefully you win the next one.
