Dan's Tipping Game - 2024/25

[Dan+]

I could simply not play and just claim top spot back following Rando's loss. However Bowen anytime is 2/1 on Betfred boost so I shall be doing £10 on this.

[Dan+]

We're back.

New week and I have the unfortunate news to announce that we have a new leader. @RandoEFC takes top spot with a really impressive double that he will probably regret only having a fiver on, but it was enough to pip him above me.

I came pretty close, but the £20 stake choice screws me (3/3 losses on £20). Millwall blew it late on but Norwich won fairly comfortably.

@CaaC (John) & the returning @Pyfish both go true to their odds. A comfortable win at shorter odds but a loss with the long shot. Fair's fair really.

@Stan doesn't do enough to get off bottom spot, but takes his second win of the season and a good one at that - he wanted goals and got them, Stockport adding their third and the game's fourth late on.

Another profitable week. We're doing collectively better than last season.

Been a bit busy but we are back on top. No other moves but the table gets tighter. Stan's figure represents the whole league as me, Rando and John cancelled each other out.

Straight BTTS double.

£10 > £20.90

[Stan]

Risking it with the Old Firm pick but Celtic are streets ahead of Rangers these days. Gamble because it's a Cup final... 

Stuttgart have scored 18 in their last 17. Heidenheim have conceded 9 in their last 3 home games.

EPL - Saturday 21st December

Fulham v Southampton (Score Draw)
Leicester City v Wolves (Leicester win)

Best value I've found in the Premier League this weekend. Fulham shouldn't have any trouble dispatching Southampton and I rate Brentford of having better than a 50/50 chance of winning instead of losing to Forest given their home form.

£10 > £29.70

[Dan+]

Apologies all, been very ill this week, will get the table up to date.

I've got one on Liverpool/Chelsea's games. Will post it up shortly.

[RandoEFC+]

Typical Brentford fall through after I looked at doing a -1.0 Handicap on both Leeds and Burnley alongside the Fulham one.

[Dan+]

Caveat to Brentford's home form was they'd played basically all of the rubbish. Forest, annoyingly, are really good.

Knew it was gone at 0-2. I thought Liverpool would have it more their own way to be honest with just a nice 0-2/0-3 sort of game but nope. Spurs might be the most childish team I've ever seen.

[Dan+]

I will sort tables but illness keeps doing me. However this weeks.

We're obviously going to be battered but I think in terms of them racking up a massive score, the likelier outcome is they just rag us in the first half then get their key players off. So I fully expect them a minimum of 3 up at half time. Probably going to have other bets on them getting 4, probably 5 in the first half too but think the odds on this in these circumstances are good.

Reading between the lines it sounds like Hermansen is still out. He seems to have really doubled down on the Ward nonsense so he's going to end up doing it again I fear - showing all of his managerial naivety in doing so as well.

Going to be an ugly, ugly night.

[Dan+]

For those who've lost track with the weeks, this week is from Tues 24th - Mon 30th December. So NYE will mark a new week.

Loads of football to play with today.

I will get some tables up - possibly today if time allows. I do apologise on this. But I've been a mix of busy and ill. Schedule allowing me just enough time to get my own losses posted.

FYI for anybody @CaaC (John) @Stan @Pyfish @RandoEFC @Lucas @Smiley Culture @...Dan

Why have you done it 3 weeks away

 

Too many wines got your dates mixed up...
