Thanks for replying.

I’ve had three bets so far, genuinely all wins, I like mainly doing lay bets (risky, you can lose badly), winning £70 on:

ManC scoring 3 or more vs Burnley.
Brighton not winning at Leicester.
West Ham not winning at Spurs.

what odds on that? must have been pretty skinny

Mugs game...How about this from yesterday...

Free bet and fancied Brighton to get some kind of result but had to be a mulitple...

Leg 1 Brighton or draw @ 2.3
Leg 2 Benfica or draw @1.05

Benfica 3-4 Santa Clara...3-2 up with 8 minutes to go, winner in 90+5

I got some of the freebie by backing Santa Clara @ 2.35 when they were 2-1 up...2 minutes later they were 3-2 down and available @ 125

Other than that went like a dream !

Decimal odds:
Man C back bet to score 3+ against Burnley - 1.88
Laid Brighton not to win @ Leicester - 6.4
Laid West Ham not to win [MENTION=17948]spud[/MENTION]s - 6.6

The lay betting is not for the faint hearted, I wouldn’t recommend it, but I seem to have had more good luck/judgement over the last 9 months than setbacks. Some lovely opportunities crop up in the CL, EL, FAC and LC, for example, famously when Potter threw away our hopes of beating Villa in the LC an hour before kickoff. Many NSC’ers made a killing that evening, the bookies were so slow to react to the miscontest in teams selected.
