acrossthepond's footy winners thread

[acrossthepond]

Evening gents - let's make some money! New to the forum but been betting on footy for quite some time now. It is my most profitable sport, mainly because it's more than that to me. Football is a religion, and who doesn't want to make some money off their religion?

So without further ado, I'll get this thread started with my first posted pick...

1* Atletico Madrid +235 (Copa Del Rey) - kicks off in about 10 minutes

Cheers mates, glad to be a part of this forum finally!

 

[acrossthepond]

Well that made tea time more enjoyable! FT Atletico Madrid 2-0 Real Madrid.

Updated record: 1-0 (+235)

 

[acrossthepond]

Play for 8/1:

1* Luton Town pk -105 (Eng. League Two)

May have one more later. I fancy Luton to win but the draw no bet insurance we get with PK is hard to pass up.

Tough luck mate, esp. with a red card for Shrewsbury too - although that can be a mixed bless, your pk looked pretty safe at that point.

 

[acrossthepond]

Well that was as difficult a push there is to swallow.

Recap: Luton Town 0-0 Shrewsbury... 1* Luton Town pk -105 PUSH

Updated record: 1-0-1 (+235)

Indeed mate. Not sure if you saw the match, but Shrewsbury's keeper played out of his mind - with some help from his two posts. Penalty claims for Luton denied early in the second half and they couldn't grab the elusive winner after going a man up. Oh well, onto the next one!

Leaning heavily towards NE right now, but won't be able to look closely enough until I'm done work - which is at the end of this Tottenham v Palace match.

Cheers mate

 

[acrossthepond]

No more official plays for today, just a few leans for you guys from the French league (2PM EST kick-off):

Lille -150
Reims/St Etienne draw +220
Nice +105
Rennes/Evian over 2

 

[acrossthepond]

I will have a pick - at least one - tomorrow. Will be posted around 8:45 EST for the games which kick-off at 9:00 EST.

This isn't a play for me, because I don't like laying high juice, but Arsenal should handle Stoke if you don't mind the -235 price tag. The -1 -130 is safe, though it could very well result in a push.
