I'd imagine most accas have suffered today with those 2 last-minute goals for Bournemouth.

That Friday Feeling What a great thread.

I've been inspired by your tales of untold riches and instead of wasting my money on "Kitson to score first in a 2-0 win" each week I'm having a crack at accumulators.

Pompey
Villa
Blackburn
Charlton

£3 for £59.30


I bottled the accumulator and bet my three quid on a lucky 15 - returning a whopping £5.66.

The drinks are on me.

Not just the accas-those of us who backed Swansea at 7/1 at the turn of the year are now getting very twitchy with Swansea's next game being away at Carlisle. :cry:
One further ray of hope is that AFC Bournemouth could actually be out of business next week so yesterday's result would be nullified.
Straws,clutching etc.
BTW since our fabulous 4 loanees returned to us Bournemouth have done better and have blooded some of their own youngsters,one of which scored yesterday.

Victor Meldrew I know that Tredder ust loves after-the-event postings so:-
Cardiff 5/6
Peterborough 8/15
Barnet 10/11
WBA 1/3
All going on the mighty reds today at 8/11
Thank you Ladbrokes for £247.19 for a £20 stake and thank you to the ref at West Brom for playing enough njury time for the to score twice.
Lightning didn't strike twice on Bikey at 30/1 but he was the nearest we got to a goal.


The best betting shop in Reading - fact

RG30 Value wise, I think Portsmouth are decent at 11/1 E/W to win the FA Cup. Preston in the next round, and they'll be at least 3 non Premiership sides in the Fa Cup QF, with 1 of the "big 4" going out at Round 5.


:roll: Whilst I am pleased I called Pompey being good value, I didn't forsee them going into the final as clear favourites

I'm laying Chelsea at 1/3 on BF, i'd rather have the turks and a draw, will probably have a bit of the 12's on offer as well for a Fenerbahce win.

Here's a bit of advice, if you see a bet that you really fancy, bet on it FFS!!!

In the last 10 mins Ive missed out on Rangers getting the next goal at 20/1 and Bayern getting the next at 10/1. :evil: :evil: :evil:
