Fun longshot bet for the start of season.

Watford, Bournemouth, Reading, Rotherham, Colchester, Blackpool, Hartelepool and Dag and Red all to get relagated. £12,000 from £1

Fun bet 2.

Chelsea, Wolves, Wigan, Luton, Celtic, Barca, Juve, PSG and Bayern to win the league. £6,000 from £1.

Seriously considering doing a Stoke and Soton top 6 double bet if I can find one somewhere.

Reading to get promoted next year*

We can make it a running thing each year £100 - £10,000 challenge betting on Reading pre season.
*obviously if we don't this.

Think I will change up my betting style this season. Normally do acca's and always ALWAYS one team pisses me over.

I want to this year focus on some sort of challenge, and maybe propose others on HNA get involved too and we can have a sort of group where we put in tips and choose a double or treble to go with and bet on it. Maybe like start with a tenner each, go choose a treble and (HOPEFULLY) when it wins we all choose another, put winnings on it etc. etc. and then we get to a certain point, cash out and start over again?

I am going to be doing my own one regardless, maybe will let people know on here how I get on :)

Starting with a tenner, will figure out the games and cash out at certain amount (was thinking 1k but that might be very risky and it is alot of money, so maybe start with 100-250?)

Okay so I have my new betting thing, I will call it 4 bets.

It is quite simple really, start with £10 and in 4 bets get to £100 and cash out into the bank, and start over. You can in theory do it in 1 or 2 days.

My start (and 1st pattern is):

£10 on Celtic to beat Ross Count, Man United to beat Spurs, Chelsea to beat Swansea (?) and Arsenal to beat West Ham. Returns £32.30.

Put £10 back into the bank to cover the original tenner.

Bet 2 = do a treble with 2/1 odds to get approx. £45

Bet 3 = same as above = £90

Bet 4 = £10 on same as above = £100.

Put £100 in bank and keep tenner for next time :)

Anyone fancy anything strong ante-post? Palace without the top 6 and Cambridge in League 2 could be my first bets

From memory things picked up at the back end of last season. They've got new owners in as well. Golden rule of League 2, just don't get sucked into Portsmouth.

Looking a bit closer to home, I like Reading to beat Sheff Wed on a match bet 11/8 and Reading to beat Blackburn 5/4.
